Same precedence as doms, but the current holder can't take a card they control. And it happens during the battle phase, so it would be opponent, then clockwise for the others. And once someone takes it, it's not in play to be targeted for anyone else.

Since the current holder can't take it, would it be clearer as "an opponent"? "Any player" is there as a TEAMS consideration, but isn't worth making it harder to understand.

Personally, I never cared for the “after battle you make take an enh” style-wording, which was seen on Moabite Marauders. It is confusing language and the players must know the rule that THAT part of a take ability can only be taken by someone who doesn’t already own that card. It’s unnecessary confusion and a nuanced rule overall. My vote is to make this new card, and any subsequent cards with a similar ability, to be worded more clearly and simply.

Right, I keep forgetting that Take only targets cards you don't currently control. I agree with Watchman that this is a source of confusion.

As far as this card in particular goes, my first thought to clarify the ability is "Any other player," though some could take that as "other than opponent whose enhancement was prevented."

You can expect mid to late March (prepare for late March).

Really? For the release date of LoC is a March release 100% certain for this set? or it is possible for late January release? Seems like a long time for a set to come out. 

Was there a discussion for this somewhere on the forums or discord?

Rob told me, via email, the other day that he doesn’t expect the cards to be at Cactus and assembled till the middle of March at the soonest.

I have heard this from Gabe as well, he was lamenting that he’ll have to keep using proxies for another 2 months.

Our team got the final graphics to Rob right before the first of the year but I heard that the printer has a rather large backlog.

Does this mean we could have all cards spoiled before release?  ;D

We could have then all spoiled but then there won't be any surprises when you open packs. ;) ::)

I think most players would like all of them spoiled so we can pre-build decks with PoC until they are released in March. If somebody doesn't  want to be spoiled then they don't have to click or tap. 8)
