Nosferatu - Give them some love...

What do you think about cards that require ANI POT, ANI OBF or POT OBF? Like Shadow Boxing.

Multi disc cards need to become a thing to shake up the way people build decks. Gating string effects like this makes sense instead of 2nd trad outperforming several dual disc at superior.

Shadow boxing is kind of meh. Combat is not consistent and also suffers from the odd problem that an unblocked rush is not much different that getting blocked. There should be real incentive to block and then maybe it will be more useful.

I see multi-disc cards as a double-edged sword, it can be good, but in most cases it's playable just with one big-cap or two mid-cap ready minions. For example Animal Magnetism is good, but with inferior disciplines it's worth nothing. If a card offers a good option with inferior disciplines then it's great (e.g. Forced March).

I see Shadow Boxing as bad card, if I have superior OBF (and POT), why wasteing time with some random blocker, when I can use stealth to hit the right targer. Instead of Shadow Boxing I will probably put some Swallowed by the Night, which is usable in more situation.

If Shadow Boxing were like this, then I would consider it as good card:

Shadow Boxing
Maneuver or press.
As above, and if the blocking minion is not ready at the end of the combat, this vampire can burns 1 blood to continue the action as if unblocked.
Only usable after a combat resulting from a block. Not usable if the blocking minion is ready. This vampire continue the action as if unblocked.

As is shadow boxing offers less than a basic discipline level of effect for 2 disc at basic and about a basic discipline level of effect for 2 disc at superior. This is not appealing.
