I´ve already seen the spoiler of Ebony Kingdom. This is one of my favorite vtes set until now, it has wonderful library cards that I want to coment, and some deck ideas have come to me:
1º) #01: 419 Operation (EK:C)
Clan: Osebo
+1 stealth action.
Put this card in play. during your untap phase, move 1 pool from your prey's pool to this card or move the pool on this card to your pool. Your prey can burn the Edge to move the counter on this card to his pool and burn this card.
It isn´t unique. I love this card.
+++++++
Eagle's Sight
[Reaction] Reaction
[Auspex] Auspex
[aus] +1 intercept.
[AUS] This reacting vampire attempts to block the current action, ignoring the normal prey, predator or target restrictions for blocking actions.
+++++++
Cesewayo
[ani][AUS][CEL][DOM][POT][THA]
[Osebo]
Capacity: 10
Group: 4
Laibon magaji: Once each action, Cesewayo may burn 1 blood to get +1 intercept.
+++++++
Pentex(TM) Subversion
Master
[2 Pool]
Unique master.
Put this card on any ready minion. The minion with this card cannot take actions and cannot block actions. This card may be burned by any other minion as a (D) action.
/***********************************************************************************/
2º) #03: Bestial Vengeance (EK:R)
Cardtype: Combat
Requires a Laibon
[ani]: Only usable before range is determined, choose a retainer on this Laibon. This combat this Laibon is immune to frenzy cards and the opposingg minion takes 1 damage during strike resolution if the retainer is ready. a vampire can only play one Bestial Vengeance each combat.
[ANI]: As above, but for 2 damage.
It doesn´t cost any blood, but it doesn´t make ranged damage, like the carrion. Anyway it´s another good combat card for the friends of animals.
+++++++
Elephant Guardian
[Retainer]
[1 Blood]
Animal with 3 life. Requires a ready Laibon.
When this minion is in combat with an acting minion, the acting minion takes 2 damage during strike resolution each round if the range is close. A minion can have only one Elephant Guardian.
+++++++
Tainted Spring
[Action Modifier]
[Animalism]
[1 Blood]
[ani] Only usable when an action to employ or recruit an animal is announced. If this action is successful, the animal gets +1 strength (for an ally) or inflicts an additional damage (for damage-dealing retainers).
[ANI] As above, and the animal gets an additional starting life.
+++++++
Drawing Out the Beast
[Combat]
[Animalism]
Only usable before range is determined on the first round. Frenzy.
[ani] During this combat, opposing vampire gets +1 strength, but he or she cannot use maneuvers to maneuver to long range, cannot use presses to end combat and cannot use equipment. A vampire may play only one Drawing Out the Beast each combat.
[ANI] As above, and the opposing vampire takes 1 unpreventable damage during the press step each round.
/***********************************************************************************/
3º)#05: Brutal Influence (EK:C)
Cardtype: Action
Cost: 1 blood
[pot]: Bleed at +1 bleed. When the action is announced this vampire may tap X Orun on him to get an additional +X bleed.
[POT]: +1 stealth action. Tap X Orun cards on this vampire to move X blood from the blood bank to a younger Laibon in your uncontrolled region.
For me, this is an overpower card. if you play Laibons with Potence, it´s an obligatory choice.
/***********************************************************************************/
4º)#08: Dusk Work (EK:C)
Cardtype: Action Modifier
Burn Option.
Requires a Laibon ith three or more Aye
Play after resolving an action (successfully or not). Tap three aye on this Laibon to untap him or her.
The laibon freak drive.
/***********************************************************************************/
5º) #11: Familial Bond (EK:C)
Cardtype: Reaction
Cost: 1 blood
Requires a Laibon.
Only usable on an action directed at another Laibon you control or on a bleed against you.
+1 intercept. If this block fails,the acting minion may choose to make the action fail. If the action is successful, this Laibon may tap (after resolution) to enter combat with the acting minion.
This card is really good for two motives: If your predator has deflect you a +5 bleed as a +4 stealth action, the acting minion may choose to make the action fail. And this card doesn´t require discipline for +1 intercept. The combat effect is obviolsy the good one. Malkavians... Prepare yourself!
/***********************************************************************************/
6º) #16: Invoke Poison Glands (EK:C)
Cardtype: Combat
[abo](Reflex): Reflex. Cancel a frenzy card played on this vampire as it is played.
[abo]: Strike: hand strike at +1 damage
[ABO]: Strike: burn the opposing animal or mortal, or strike: hand strike with +X damage where x is the number of Orun on this vampire.
Potence... xD Now we have Abomwe!
/***********************************************************************************/
7º) For me this is the CARD of this set:
#23: My Kin Against the World (EK:C)
Cardtype: Political Action
Cost: X blood
Choose X younger vampire of the same clan as this acting vampire. If this vampire is a Laibon you may choose younger Laibon regardless of clan. If this referendum passes, untap this acting vampire and the chosen vampire. Only one My Kin Against The World can be called each turn.
+++++++
Voter Captivation
[Action Modifier]
[Presence]
Only usable after resolving a successful referendum called by this acting vampire.
[pre] The acting vampire gains X blood from the blood bank, where X is the number of votes by which the referendum passed.
[PRE] As above, but move up to 2 of those blood counters to your pool instead of this vampire.
/***********************************************************************************/
8º) #32: Supernatural Resistance (EK:C)
Cardtype: Combat/Reaction
Burn option.
Requires a Laibon with three or more Orun.
Tap an Orun on this Laibon to cancel an action card targeting this Laibon or a strike card as it is played. Not usable to cancel a card that doesn't require a discipline or that requires Celerity or Potence.
Have you ever seen this?
An Akunanse has played 6 cards before range... and the other minion only plays combat ends. That´s frustrating. Now is the time!
/***********************************************************************************/
9º) #39: Unholy Radiance (EK:C)
Cardtype: Action Modifier / Reaction
Requires a Laibon with three or more Orun.
Only usable during a referendum. Usable by a tapped Laibon. Gain 4 votes.
I don´t like it for the fact that you need 3 Orun cards, but that was before I know all the cards that require 3 Orun. Now, I prefer this from play presence.
/***********************************************************************************/
10º) And the last one is one the cards that will make laibon one of the most playable sects for me:
#02: Bamba (EK:C)
Cardtype: Action
Cost: 1 blood
Requires a non-sterile Laibon with a capacity of 4 or more. +1 stealth action.
Put this card in play. It becomes a 1 capacity non-unique Laibon of the same clan and cannot act this turn. if the acting Laibon is a Magaji you may search your library,hand,ash heap for a master: discipline card to play on this vampire (pay cost as normal) and you may move 1 blood from the that Magaji to this Laibon.
/***********************************************************************************/
In conclusion, this is a really good set. With really good cards to win tournaments and the Aye/Orun theme is really refreshing. I want 2 booster boxes Now!
