Take an action to superiorly tempt a vampire with one blood on it. The targeted minion's controller controls a heidelberg castle. He wishes to tap it at the end of the action to move blood onto the newly tempted vampire, avoiding, for now, the temptation control. But at the end of the action, I also want to burn the count off of the temptation to take control of the tempted vampire, before he can tap the castle. Who wins? I'm guessing the acting (tempting) methuselah. The effects appear simultaneous, but acting meth gets first shot at things, right? Just wondering. Thanks. ~SV

[ quoted text not captured ] Yes. Indeed, the Temptation counters can be burned during the action, so could be done before the acting minion plays, for example, Freak Drive -- before the window for tapping the castle even comes up.
