[LSJ] Telepathic Counter Qs
Joe Meyerson
Player A announces a bleed action. Player B declines to block. Player
A announces "bleed for 1." Player B reacts with Telepathic Counter at
inferior, reducing the bleed to 0.
After the Telepathic Counter, can player A use a bleed modifier to
increase the bleed?
Could Player B have played Telepathic Counter at superior, reducing
the bleed by 2, even though the then-current value of the bleed was
only 1?
If so, would the "extra" bleed reduction carry over to affect
subsequent bleed modifiers played by Player A?
Can Player B react to a single bleed with multiple Telepathic
Counters?
If so, are they dependent on the value of the bleed, or is it
permissible to "dump" multiple Telepathic Counters?
Thanks,

Yes, the bleed would be reduced to -1 which would have to be boosted by 2 in
order to become successful ( assuming no more reductions ). See also
clarification on Life Boon ( where if someone is bled for 5 and they have 2
pool left you much give them at lest 4 pool to cover the deficit ).

Yes but no more than 1 is playable by the same minion during the same action
since they are reaction cards.

You can reduce a bleed as far into the negatives are you like. There is no
need to pre-emptively dump them however, you can just dump them each time
acting minion attempts to increase the bleed ( within the once per minion
per action restriction on reaction cards ).

With different minions (one TC per minion), yes.

The latter.
