player a has HAMA out, player b takes another out and they contest, did
player b get the 4 blood? or lost the four blood?
in other words if a card comes into play contesting, does it become a
card at all before it contests?

I think it is wonderful if you have a stealth deck.
You put it out and gain four pool.
When you can see the other Metuselahs greedy looks, and just give them
the hard look and explains you just take it back.

But you can also give permission to a Metuselah in trouble...
This card needs you to be good at table diplomacy, and rightly used the
Art Museum really can help you.

Maybe it's not a great card, but absolutly not a Wallpaper.

Well, b either got 4 pool and immediately lost 4 pool for the
contest, or never controlled it in the first place (netting 0).
So mostly it wouldn't matter.

But, since for example playing a second Rack would require you
to choose a minion first (before the contest), it seems as if
player b would gain 4 for playing the card and then lose 4 for
the contest (losing control).

It would matter if b's prey had Realm of the Black Sun.

Perhaps useful for an intercept deck in the endgame if you have
something like anarch revolt on the go... of course knowing my luck it
would always turn up near the begining =) storage annex perhaps?
still it is a bit of a ropey card

Actually, in the "best bait card since x" category, I'd place it as
best since Powerbase: New York. Now that's bait.

It would matter even more if b's predator had Realm of the Black Sun. =)

Well, the best I can say for it is that it provides the most
fitting way to oust a Toreador deck...
