Gameplay Need: App poke vamps and keep them in torpor where they belong. Ha!

Im not sure this really helps much, given that if your prey can stealth past your intercept to rescue, they can burn this card, and if not youd be adding another vamp totorpor.

But, my real gripe is that SELF rescuing ahould be disallowed. Maybe vamps capacity less than 6 cannot take the leave torpor action. Thematically, anyone can come bail them out from the barn hidy-hole, or burn it altogether, but while there, they cant leave of thier own accord.

Oh yeah, the vamps wouldn't be able to self-rescue either. I guess I should have more clear about that.

True, stealth can take it out. But, stealth also takes out Pentex Subversion and that's still considered a staple card. However, the Gangrel do have very good untapping tech to block and access to some intercept too. The main thing, is that it would likely be punishing when played against decks that don't have easy access to stealth. Every turn vamps linger in torpor increases the chance for diablerie.

I'm not sure what happens in your Metagame CalibanX, but around the Sydney playgroup people only indulge in Diablerie when they KNOW they have the Votes behind them to survive, Carlton won't be a problem and/or they don't care about the survival of the diablerist.

I see that here too. Anarch convert eats alot of people, and is dubbed "captain expendable"

Helping with dragonbound is what thiz does, or carvers, or path of lillith. But it helps quite little alone.
