Some questions... 1)Can you choose which damage to reduce when using flesh of marble? For example, a vamp takes 1 regular damage and 3 aggro. and decides to reduce the 3 aggro. damage and take the 1 regular. Is this allowed (assuming sup. pro.)? 2)Can you use kiss of ra against a blocking vamp after u have played change of target? 3)How is Anarch Troublemaker played? If you wish to use either of its effects must you use it as you bring it into play? or can you put it out into play without triggering its effects until you so desire? if you can leave it out as one of your cards and wish to use its effects must you do so during your master phase or can you use it at any given time? 4)Did the ruling on Blood to Acid say that it was only in effect for the first strike resolution of a round? or was it good for all of the strikes in a round? Thanks in advance... Alex

I beleive the errata was "reduce all unprevented damage". so, if the aggro and the normal came from ONE strike (or effect), then i guess you could reduce it down to one normal, but, to be honest, i really have no idea i'm just wasting time on the net instead of going to my lecture (it's economics, you understand.....) > 2)Can you use kiss of ra against a blocking vamp after u have played > change of target? maybe you could play kiss of ra before change of target, but you definately can't play it after change of target, because there is no longer a blocking vampire. > 3)How is Anarch Troublemaker played?

During the heal damage step, all (unprevented) damage is reduced to one point. You can choose which one point will remain. > 2)Can you use kiss of ra against a blocking vamp after u have played > change of target? No. After Change of Target is played, there is no blocker. > 3)How is Anarch Troublemaker played?

It can only be used (tapped) during your untap phase, per VtES card text (errata to Jyhad card text). > 4)Did the ruling on Blood to Acid say that it was only in effect for the > first strike resolution of a round? or was it good for all of the strikes > in a round? It is a one-strike effect. It applies only to the next strike resolution. -- L. Scott Johnson (vte...@regency.wizards.com) Official VtES Net.Rep for Wizards of the Coast.
