How does this work in relation to cards like superior Revelations?

"Put this card in play. Your prey plays with an open hand. Any minion can burn this card as a Ⓓ action"

I'm inclined to say that due to the wording ("after") the player targeted with The Rats Already Knew would lose Pool only after Revelations was removed from play. The proposition does say "after" not "during" or "while" and you are continuously looking at their hand while Revelations is on the table.

"Lock this card after you looked any card in another Methuselah's hand, crypt or library."

How about:

Lock this card if you looked any card in another Methuselah's hand, crypt or library.

That would allow you to use the card while Revelations in play.

Since it is in past tense ("looked") I'm not sure if anything actually changed.

Well at least knowing the weird intricacies and nitpickiness of how things tend to work in this game...

Lock this card if you look any card in another Methuselah's hand, crypt or library.

Make this to after a nosferatu you control make you look at a card on another mathuselah hand, library or uncontrolled region, and create another card that give a direct action to look hands

some nosferatus have special text that permit you to look something, the new action will hep the nosferatu that don't have such special text
