Whitewolf? announced the end of development? do they hold exclusive rights =
or is there a chance it will be picked up again to further their movement i=
nto the print on demand business?

misdirections must become the following if there is a new set.

"pay 2X pool to tap x minions where x does not exceed the number of OTHER m=
ethuselah currently in the game"

paying 4 blood to get a game win seems fair, paying 6 t oust yoru prey also=
 seems fair.

my playgroup honestly feels it ought to be 3X but as james astutely points =
out this would render the card 'wallpaper'.

in terms of taking choices away from opponents the increaSED COST WOULD DEF=
INITELY REDUCE the chance of tapping out 2 opponents for a sweep. say for e=
xample your prey and grand prey each have low pool and 3 minions out, tappi=
ng them all and hitting them for a few decent bleeds would gain you 12 pool=
 and 2 victory points at the cost of 12 pool and not succeeding. the risk i=
s definitely worth it, they would a sitting duck if their sweep is in any w=
ay unsucessful. Could be a nice GW if they pull it off though.|

and just to make sure you dont tap out all of the last guy's vamps, its alm=
ost as it is currently (double the price) if you and he are the last meth s=
tanding

as it stands i value misdirections almost as little as ascendance.

2 blood to tap 1 minion certianly seems fair, most decent combats cost more=
, especially if GW is at stake.
new card and keep misdirections as 1 for 1 would be everyone's best bet if =
its picked up for another set.

disclaimer: i have 5 jyhad backed misdirections id love to include in a dec=
k.

what other master cards are good examples of bad ideas?

also is there a well maintained list of banned/altered cards?
