First Tradition and Unlock Phase

Ankha, sorry to be a pain in the butt about this, but can you please confirm that the functionality of First Tradition hasn't changed with its errata?

Are you really making a deck with first tradition? It isn't even Christmas yet to be spreading so much joy.

yes but the question is still when am I choosing? before your turn is like not a phase or anything.


edit:

Turns proceed clockwise around the playing area. Each player's turn is composed of the following five phases, in order:
1. Unlock Phase
Unlock all your cards.
2. Master Phase
Play a master card.
3. Minion Phase
Have your minions perform actions.
4. Influence Phase
Attempt to control vampires in your uncontrolled region.
5. Discard Phase
Discard a card from your hand (and draw another).

Per the rulebook these are the phases and we know we can resolve effects in the order the active player chooses.

First Tradition: The Masquerade
Requires a prince or justicar.
If this referendum is successful, put this card in play. Each Methuselah must burn 2 pool during his or her unlock phase. A Methuselah can choose to skip his or her entire turn IN HIS PREDATORS DISCARD PHASE. Burn this card when the controller has either skipped 3 turns or burned a total of 6 pool by this effect.

I've had two written out for a looooooong time now.

I really don’t think it needs to be specified in what phase the choice is made, but this suggestion doesn’t work regardless. What if my predator skipped their turn?
