Wouldn't it be much more interesting to empower underexplored mechanics, like Anarchs or Laibon or Trophies, rather than just pouring more, identi-clone cards into vanilla Auspex? Imagine a card more like:
Some Name
Reaction, Requires a Black Hand vampire
This vampire gets +1 fun. If this vampire has :ani: , he also gets +1 awesome.

Yes, I like this type of smooth, easy card design much more than new keywords and complex mechanics. This game doesn´t need more complexity, it needs more variation (and player interaction), IMHO.

Are you opposed to keywording things that take multiple words when it would not hindercthe game?

I guess my dislike of keywords more is for keywords in Vtes. If Vtes had a serious "reboot" I guess I would like it more, but with all old cards being out there I think changing for example "Only usable by a tapped minion. This reacting minion can play reaction cards and attempt to block as though untapped until the current action is concluded." into "Wake" would be very confusing.

Also, I want to warn for the senseless inflation in the amount of keywords from for example Star Trek or Star Wars CCG.


Given todays update, i think it would take too much time to change sentencez to keywords at this point. Maybe much of that should stay slang.
