If i control Agaitas and play an Infernal Pursuit during combat, can i
then draw two cards from my preys lib (or 1 if i choose so) and
discard one of those?

Superior infernal pursuit:
For the remainder of the combat, each time you replace a card (including
when you draw to replace this card), draw an additional card and then burn
one card in your hand for each additional card drawn

Agaitas:
Ability: Whenever you play a card, you may draw its replacement from your
prey's library instead of your own. Put the card drawn face-up in front of
you. It is still considered to be in your hand, and be played or discarded
as normal.

To me it seems like you can draw the replacement card from either your or
your prey's library,
but the additional card from infernal pursuit has to come from your own
library. (as it's not
a replacement for a played card, as per Agaitas's text)

I had this idea a while ago, but hestitated to do anything serious
with it as I own to few Infernal Pursuit to make it. Let us know what
you're cooking over there :D

Yeah i found out now.. had missspelled a word in my first search, and
therefore couldnt find anything on the group.
The extra card from Infernal has to come from my own library..

I had a similar idea, but I though it wouldn't work because of the
reason I just stated. The trick is naturally to play a ton of Infernal
Pursuits, then get into combat with any minion, with a CEL minion.
When playing infernal pursuits, you redraw 1 card from your own
deck, and the rest from your prey's (which you then discard). You
play multiple infernal pursuits. Optimally, you'll need to play 13
infernal pursuits to empty a 90 card deck. However you'll want to
draw cards from your own deck until you have another infernal
pursuit, so you might need a few more. This way you can quickly
empty someone's deck. Also you can fish for any card you might
want from your own deck (brinksmanship/awe or something)

Hope that was the same idea Nikolaj had :-)

Relevant card text:

"Sabbat: When you play a card, you may draw its replacement from your


prey's library instead of your own."

You may only replace the card you played, per card text. The additional
card must come from your own library.

We built this one in playtest; the elaborately-contrived wording on
Agaitas exists exactly for this reason. =)
