Hi,

Does the clause "in the first round of the resulting combat" apply to
"the blocking minion cannot strike to end combat"?

From the way it is worded, I'd say that the answer is no.

Name: Mind of the Wilds
[HttB:C]
Cardtype: Action Modifier
Discipline: Animalism & Auspex
[ani][aus] If this action is blocked, this vampire gets an optional
maneuver in the first round of the resulting combat, and the blocking
minion cannot strike to end combat.
[ANI][AUS] As above, with +1 stealth.

Kind regards,

pallando

Sorry if I'm missing something, but what's the point of this card if
the blocker CAN end combat in 1st round of combat?

You're right, you missed it.

Read as:

"If this action is blocked, ... the blocking minion cannot strike to
end combat."

i.e. the ending combat prohibiting is not restricted to any specific
round, it is continuous for the duration of the block attempt.

So, this card is even more awesome than I thought it was?
Outstanding!

Yess! I see the light. aus/ani rush is now stealthier and unbeatable
by S:CE... And AUS POT FOR gets an alternate Fame+dunk tactic: Let's
play Horseshoes at Dawn ...

Alexandra, bleed with PRE, us mind of the wilds if block attempts,
assault, long, blur, gatta gatta torrent taste. And Cavalier for
untaps.

I'm loving it with Lucian, the Perfect. Easy stealth option on the
base 4 bleed, no combat ends if blocked so don't need to waste a pile
of cards on grabs to make the combat count

I don't know about rush (you have to be blocked to defeat S:CE), but
my ANI/AUS bruise bleeder is much happier. No more block and S:CE to
avoid the Crows for you, Mr. Majesty! (And surprise stealth is good
too.)

? How does this relate to Mind of the Wilds? Or does it?

Wonderin',
