Re: [問題] poison counters

※ 引述《weihan601 (我想變成章魚)》之銘言：
: 請問 poison counters 有辦法解嗎?
: Vampire Hexmage 的異能是移掉目標永久物上的指示物
: 應該不能用在玩家
: 所以還有其他的解法嗎?

之前板友有提到的官方 Column 文章，講述為何這次block把poison counter拉回主題

這篇其實還蠻有趣的，非常值得一看

節錄裡面的一段

(我翻譯不太行，我流翻譯請見諒)

Poison did not show up in Fallen Empires or Ice Age, much to my dismay. Then
came Homelands. There are many reasons to dislike Homelands. I have stated
numerous times that I believe it was the biggest failure of Magic design in
the game's seventeen year history. The reason I hated it most though was one
card. This card:

劇毒並沒有出現在 Fallen Empires 或者 Ice Age 中，讓我很失望。再來出了
Homelands。Homelands 令人討厭的點有很多。我已經說過很多次，我認為這系列是
Magic 十七年的歷史中最大的設計失敗作。讓我最恨家鄉的是這一張牌：

Leeches
http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=3020

水蛭療法 1WW
巫術
目標玩家失去所有劇毒指示物。由此方式移除的每個指示物讓水蛭療法
對此玩家造成1點傷害。

This card was a slap in the face of every poison lover. One of the things I
had always loved about poison was that it differed fundamentally from life in
one important way—you couldn't get rid of it. Once you were poisoned, that
poison would always be there. In addition, thanks to the low power level of
poison, it was hard enough to win with poison. Did the game really need an
answer to a threat this anemic?

這張卡狠狠了打了劇毒愛好者的臉。讓我一直喜愛劇毒的一個點是，跟生命有著本質
上的不同－－你沒辦法移除劇毒。一旦你中毒了，劇毒就一直存在。而且，多謝劇毒
的低威力，已經有夠難以毒發的方式贏得遊戲。遊戲有必要這樣對待如此貧弱的機制？

My hatred of Leeches did one important thing. It cemented in me the
importance of poison not just being another life total. (This theme will
become very important in Scars of Mirrodin's design.) As such, you will not
see any card in the entire Scars of Mirrodin block that removes poison. It
cannot be done. There are answers. There are ways to deal with poison but
healing yourself of it is not one of them. If you want to remove poison
counters you will only have one way—Leeches.

我對水蛭療法的憎惡造成了一項重要結果。這鞏固了我對劇毒並不是另外一種生命的
看法。(這個主題在 Scars of Mirrodin 的設計中非常重要)。所以，你將不會在整個
Scars of Mirrodin 環境中看到任何卡可以移除劇毒。絕對不行。這就是答案。將會
有一些方式可以對付劇毒，但絕對不會有把自己治好這種方式。如果你想要移除劇毒
指示物，你只有一種方法－－水蛭療法
