Rodtrëch, again
Tom, Mad&Co
This question came to our playgroup this weekend, and I'd like someone could
confirm what is the correct use of this card.
Some of our guys plays a nasty Tzimisce Intercept-Agg-Rot deck, and I was
playing a !Ventrue Ecstatic Agony/Fortitude deck that carries 6 skin of
night.
So, the statement:
Lazverinus goes for an Eternal Vigilance. Meshena blocks with little effort.
Combat begins. I know he plays that combo, so, before range is determined, I
play an inferior Skin of Night (all agg damage received this round becomes
non-agg). Range is close and meshenka strikes with a chiropteran marauder at
superior. Can my opponent play a Rostrech to end combat and send Lazve to
torpor???'
I guess the answer is no, but Damnans states that Lazverinus should go to
bed for a while...
Thanks in advance,
Tom,Mad&Co

I'm not LSJ etc. but:
- Meshenka is attempting to use aggravated damage, even though
Lazverinus will treat it as normal
- This fulfils the criteria for playing Rotschreck

Correct. It doesn't matter what the damage will do (be prevented,
dodged, treated as normal, ignored, etc.) - it only matters that
the minion attempt to use aggravated damage against the vampire
(card text).

What about a situation where the minion attempting to do aggravated
damage is unable to do so for other reasons than range? For example
unable to raise strength after being the target of Song of Serenity.
Basically, is attempting to inflict zero aggravated damage enough
for Rötschreck to work?

No it's not enough
LSJ
Correct. You must attempt to use aggravated damage - and zero point
of aggravated damage doesn't qualify.

help.
Meth. A (playing Tzimisce) attempted an action and was blocked by Meth. B
(playing !Gangrel). Both vampires attempted to use aggravated damage, so Meth.
C threw down a 'shrek. Both vampires go to torpor, yes?
Thanks for any help

No.
One (and only one) vampire can be the target of the Rotschreck card.
The one that is targetted goes to torpor. The other does not take
any damage.
