[LSJ] Blessing of Chaos, Entombment

[Luis P. Duarte]

Hi!

- Situation 1:

A sucessfully plays "Blessing of Chaos" on him.
B plays "Bum's Rush" on C.
A blocks and intercepts B action.

Can B play "Thoughts Betrayed"?

- Situation 2:

A enters combat with B.
A plays "Burning Wrath" as strike.
B plays "Entombment" at superior, as strike.

Since A is going to torpor, does B still takes the damage, (and
goes to torpor too) ?

Thanx!

Of course not. Blessing of Chaos specifically prohibits the opposing
minion from playing cards with Dominate when in combat with your
minion. Since Thoughts Betrayed is a combat card, the other minion
can't play it.

Yes. Both strikes occur at the same time.

But Thoughts Betrayed is played BEFORE combat begins (card text),
althought is a combat card.
I think you're right. But i needed a second opinion.

Correct.

Only since TB has been ruled/errata to be played "as combat is entered"
rather than "before combat". Without that errata, the case would be
less clear.
