Card Idea: Relentless

Relentless

Require a vampire with capacity above 5.
Only usable at the end of an blocked action. Not usable if this vampire has lost 3 or more blood this action or ended combat before the press step. The action continues as if unblocked. It cost additionally 2 if blocking vampire is older or have capacity above 5 .
As above, but capacity above 7 instead.

It's meant to improve bruise and bleed strategies involving celerity, it's similar to momentary delay, but usable against bigger vampires, with associated cost.

Re-done.

I found this pretty reasonnable, since it cost something, and can't be recycled too easily.

May not be what bleed'n'bruise need, but I don't see this becoming problematic, si it's worth a try.

There is almost identical card momentary delay, why to bother with this one?

As above, but also usable if two rounds of combat occurred. It cost one less blood if opposing minion is not ready.

It suffers from 7-line syndrome.

Because this one is playable and momentary delay is not (this can be played when your carna blocks the action for 2/1 blood, unlike momentary delay which is dead card on the hand)?

Because this can be played by 6+ caps and enable midcaps to bruise and bleed, when momentary delay is for 8+ caps therefore is usable mostly in star decks)?

Alek, i understand that you have personal bias toward me, and you want your and to dominate, but at least read the card with comprehension.


@Amenophobis: yes, it suffer from it. Call the great beast suffer from 9-line syndrome, yet it's perfectly clear and played a lot in right decks.

Nevertheless, too much text is to be avoided. Often, similar effects can be achieved with less text. You'll have to be creative or make compromises...
