Basicly what i want to do is a deck around the following Combination

Burst of Sunlight
Rotschreck
Amaranth
Ritual of the Bitter Rose

Now first of all is This possible. Secondly will this combo beat the
Combat ends, Dodge cards.

..because it ends combat first, _then_ sends the vamp that's the
target of the agg to torpor. And as Amaranth is a combat card, and
requires the opposing minion to be going to torpor _in combat_, it all
falls down.

plain old Burst-rotschrek beats dodge and combat ends. you just don't
get a chance for a free snack on their way down.

Won't work, as mentioned elsethread. Rotschreck causes a vamp to go to
torpor _after_ combat ends.

It will beat S:CE and dodge (and all other strikes, since the Rotschreck
keeps the strikes from resolving). It gets beaten by Psyche! and
Telepathic Tracking.

Also note that you can only play Rotschreck when it's not your turn
(because it's an Out of Turn Master), so you'd have to block somebody or
be rushed, and you can only play one Rotschreck per turn (because it's a
Master).

As mentioned by the others, you can't amaranth/ritual after combat
ends, what rotschreck will do.

For the combo to get even better, add inscription :) Inscription with
burst of sunlight will be a permanent rotschreck monster since you
don't have to burrn the burst/inscription to play the Rotschrek :)
Unfortunately you can only use one Rotschreck each turn, but the out
of turn part will not be hard with (!)Tremere (with aus or AUS).
Finding the Inscription will be available by magic of the smith, and
maybe the wallpaper location of the !Tremere (Spirit Summoning
Chamber) might even come in handy to search for the burst you want ;)

Just have minion in wait to diablerize and then use ritual. Make them
Black hand
!Tremere and use Ebony Fox Hunt (damn, another master out of turn).

Just a basic deck idea here ;)

Jups. One of the main reasons to use rotschreck infact.

Yes, you do. You have to burn the Inscription in order to use the Burst
of Sunlight card to declare your strike as "Burst of Sunlight", which
must be done in order to satisfy the requirements of Rötschreck.
