LSJ - tasty timing
Reyda
Two vampires in combat (rake and another one). Both vampires have 2 blood on
them.
first round, rake plays immortal grapple, both vampire strike for one. no
one prevents, so when rake plays blur for one additional, he is empty. He
replaces the blur by a Pushing the limit. He could torporize his opponent,
but he has no blood left. He choses to play taste of vitae, gaining one
blood, and then spend it to play the Pushing, thus torporizing his foe.
Is this play of taste of vitae legal ? or rake should have played it before
the blur ?

Only usable ->after strike resolution<-. This vampire gains an amount
of blood equal to the amount lost by the opposing vampire to damage
during this round of combat.
On the official Clarifications site, it says:
The blood is gained immediately, and can be used to heal damage from
future strikes, even in the same round. [TOM 19951217]

You can play Taste of Vitæ after the intial strike resolution. Or so I
think :)

Yes.
You may play Taste of Vitae "after" strike resolution.
After gaining additional strikes is "after" strike resolution.
> or rake should have played it before the blur ?
Up to him.
Carpe noctem.

I thought "after" always meant "immediately after". oh well...

It does.
Play Taste before Blur.
Or (immediately) after one of the additional strikes.

Can you play multiple tastes in the same strike resolution to double
up on the blood lost, in this case (1 blood lost due to damage) play X
tastes for X blood gain?
Or since you already 'tasted' that 1 lost blood, you can't taste the
same blood over and over?

You may play as many Taste of Vitaes as you like.
You will only gain 1 blood, since only 1 blood was lost due to damage.
Sabbat War Card Text follows:
Taste of Vitae [Jyhad, V:TES, SW]
Cardtype: Combat
Only usable after strike resolution.
This vampire gains an amount of blood equal to the amount lost
by the opposing vampire to damage during this round of combat.
Not usable by a vampire going into torpor. Blood loss counted
by a previous Taste of Vitae is not counted again.

Right.
