[Question] Sascha Vykos Advanced

Hello everybody, The text of the Abilitty of Sascha Vykos Advanced says: "If Sascha is ready, you may draw a card from your library whenever another Methuselah plays a master card." Does this mean that my hand size increases by one? Or have I to discard after drawing the Card? Thanks for your answer. In some cards the text say "Your hand size will increase by one" while others says "Discard down to your hand size after drawing" Here neither is said. Ow, how bad is my English! I hope you will understand what I'm saying!(if someone wants to correct this message, it will be appreciated) Thanks again, The Darker Shadow

If you'd get to keep the card, Sascha would say something along the lines of "put a counter on sasch each time another Methusalah plays a Gehnna card. You get +1 hand size for each counter of Sascha". While the discard down to handsize clause does indeed miss from the card, you don't get to keep it. You draw and then immediately discard down to handsize.

The "(Discard to your hand size)" is always reminder text, since the rules tell you to do that anyway. When text space is tight, reminder text is the first to go. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.
