About Hedonism
Hedonism, Action modifier, designed by Krasen Maximov first released in October 2025 in the set Sabbat V5.
Hedonism fits a **Fortitude/Presence action deck** with several ready vampires, especially one trying to push through important bleeds or political actions. It makes a block fail and locks the blocker, but it also locks one of your vampires; at inferior, the queued combat is worthwhile mainly if that vampire is built to win it. At superior, avoiding combat makes the card much easier to use. It is not generally better than reliable stealth or, in a deck with Dominate, **Seduction**: those help get an action through without committing a second vampire. Hedonism **should see play selectively** when your deck can spare an unlocked vampire and values locking opposing blockers; I would not make it a default inclusion in a deck that needs every vampire available for its own actions.
