What if vampire (A) is blocked?. Can vampire (B) (controlled by the same Methuselah) play Mask of a Thousand Faces to enter combat with the blocking minion instead of (A), or is it to late for (B) to play Mo1000F?. Vampire (A) is blocked and plays Venenation. Can (A) play Change of Target then?. Greetings, Damnans

Vampire A is blocked by a minion controlled by his/her prey. Vampire A playes venenation. Vampire B plays Mask of 1000 Faces without the stealth and then plays Venenation again. Is this legal? Please say yes as my "Meat Grinder" deck will surely love you forever for it...

On the white-wolf errata page, it says the following about M1000F: All action modifiers remain in effect, but inherent modifiers (a minion's inherent +1 bleed, e.g.) do not. Effects applied to a minion (e.g., Backways) also do not carry over to the new (masking) vampire. So can I still play two Venenations (one from Minion A and one from Minion B after the Mask) and hence put two corruption counters total on the blocking minion in the above scenario? I know my playgroup is going to throw a fit tonight about this, so I wanted to get it from a ruling source before trying it on them.
