Suggestion - Fierce Opposition

Burn to prevent 1 damage to this Imbued.

ok

Burn to reduce a bleed against you by 1.

not ok

how about, this Imbued takes damage equal to the bleed amount, excess goes to pool. If this Imbued is still ready at the end of the action, the acting minion may enter combat with it.

Eh, because reducing a bleed for 1 is so overpowered ability huh?

I think imbued need more pro-monster stuff. Supporting imbued make them more useful thanadding to broken existing stuff.

But they should never have bounce or votes. Ever. Beyond that, i think tame bleedreductioncould work. But not as a conviction.

@Ashur : maybe in the past they were, but now the correct way to caracterize them is "annoying", not "overpowered".

One time by an untapped vampire, no. Multiple time, it can be. If your imbued prey put three of them on his minion each turn, I hope you are using dominate.

Reducing a bleed for one is not.
having 4 or 5 imbued and recursing this card each turn allows you to reduce 4 or 5 bleeds. More with the said location. Every turn. Until the end of the game.

And if predator manages to get a big bleed through, there's always champion.
