I have tried a google search for this, but without much luck. I am being bled by someone using Night Moves for 1. Obviously, with Setites being the Intercept monsters that they are, I decide not to block. :) Hesha plays Ecstasy at Superior to reduce the bleed by 1 and cause the burn blood effect. Assuming that the bleed isn't now modified, and so here would be resolving for 0. Can Kephamos also play a Superior Ecstasy to reduce the bleed to -1 and cause the burn blood effect? Ditto for Allonzo Montoya, etc... Ecstasy does state if the bleed resolves for 0 or less. I always assumed that meant if you then drew and played a Superior Telepathic Counter when the bleed was a 1, therefore going to -1 (can play more than you need in one card, but not mulitple cards - Stealth/Intercept), but last night I was wondering whether or not every SER guy you have could all drop the bleed independently, potentially going down to -4+, just to get the burn blood effect. This would have reduced the blood on my predators vampires a lot quicker. Just a thought for the next time I play Ecstasy. Cheers Andy VEKN Setite Ruler of Cambridge

You can play as many Ecstasy as you want at Superior which reduces the bleed by 1 for each card played, and once the bleed resolves (i.e. when nobody wants to do anything more) then you check for the "if the bleed resolves for 0 (or less), the acting minion burns 1 blood or life.". So for each Ecstasy card, if the bleed was 0 or less, the acting minion burns 1 blood or life. Four cards played, four blood/lives burned. Archie
