I think I love this deck. But let me see if I get this right:
Thucimia bleeds, reduces hand size (discard 2 cards) = Bleed of 2. Plays Cog and untaps.
On her prey's turn she bleeds with the Cog action, reduces hand size again = bleed of 4?

Is that right?

Thucimia has one vote (titled). Once each time she bleeds, she may reduce your hand size by 2 until your next untap phase to get +1 bleed. +1 handsize. Blood cursed.

Unfortunately, no, it doesn't work that way.

The additional bleed only lasts for the current action, the hand size reduction lasts until your next untap phase.

No.

Hand size reduction lasts until your next untap phase. +1 bleed lasts for the current action.

So on the Cog: Base 1 + 1 (Cog) +1 (hand size reduct special) = 3.

Hi David,

LSJ is right as always.

But: She can bleed for 3 after Cogged without any card in her turn, than bleed for 7-8 in my prey's turn, without any chance being archoned (by my prey)

Csaba

Congrats Csaba!

That's twice you win a tournament with an idea I'm trying to put into practice. We don't talk about these things, so it is really funny, that.

I use Thucimia and with the master section devoted to bring her fast and bloat.
Sybil's Tongue and White Lilly (cel for DEM OBF) for back-up and general s&b cheese.

Cheers mate,
Tiago
