[LSJ] Vitae Block + Taste of Vitae Question

does the blood moved to Vitae Block counts as blood loss during combat? So if Matthias plays a Vitae Block and an Anesthetic Touch he can taste back 4 blood? Emile "We are an ape with a symbiotic relationship to a mushroom"

Blood lost for non-damage reasons cannot be acquired via Taste of Vitae. Pertinent card text on Taste of Vitae: "lost by the opposing vampire to damage" http://www.white-wolf.com/vtes/Cardlist.html http://monger.vekn.org/showcard.html?ID=780 Taste of Vitae [Jyhad:U, VTES:U, SW:PB, CE:U/PB2/PN, BH:PN2] Cardtype: Combat Only usable at the end of a round of combat.

Cards text for taste is; Only usable at the end of a round of combat. Not usable by a vampire going into torpor. This vampire gains an amount of blood equal to the amount lost by the opposing vampire to damage during this round of combat. A vampire can play only 1 Taste of Vitae each round. Card text for Vitae Block is: Play before range is determined. Only usable if the opposing minion is a vampire. A vampire can play only one Vitae Block each combat. [ani] Gain 1 optional press this round. [obe] Put this card in play, and move up to 2 blood from the opposing vampire to this card. During your untap phase, return the blood counters to that vampire and burn this card. [OBE] As [obe] above, but <move> up to 3 blood to this card. I do not believe that vitaw block does any damage at all.. so you can not taste blood loss dur to vitaw block. Andrew Daley
