contest questions (LSJ)
Stone
copy of Arika is brought into play and enters the contest. Does the 2nd
Arika lose blood to Wormwood before entering the contest ? I don't think so,
but would like to confirm.
2/ If an uncontrolled vampire of X capacity has X+1 counters at the end of
influence phase and enters the contest, does the extra blood roll off
immediately, or would it wait until the next untap phase (provided the
contest is won) ? I guess the latter.
2-1/ follow-up : if the extra blood rolls off, would it make a withdraw
attempt fail ?
3/ If an influenced Tariq enters a contest, does his special kick in before
entering the contest ? I guess not
4/ If an influenced Victor Pelletier enters a contest, can you use his
special (When Victor enters play, you may pay 1 pool... ) before he actually
is contested ? I guess you can, same template as Anarch Convert (i.e. you
can use the Convert's ability "When the convert enters play..." even though
the Convert is about to enter a contest).
5/ If a vampire of capacity X has Grand Madre de Dio and a vampire of X-1
capacity is influenced and enters a contest, does the Grand Madre effect
kick in (When your predator or prey puts a minion in play in any phase...) ?
I guess not (well depends of whether "puts into play" means "really put it
into play" or "putting into play" or something).
thanks

Correct. (A similar fate awaits Tariq if contested).

3.1 Can a contested vampire be merged?
3.1.1 If Tariq can be merged while being contested, would Tarig
(merged) be at full blood when he comes into play then?

No. (Although a merged vampire can be contested, before anyone takes my answer
the wrong way.)

Moot, but yes.
