Question:

4 MPIf you win and if your opponent had (strictly) less MP than you, gain 4 extra Relics
5 MPIf your opponent had (strictly) less MP than you, gain 4 extra Relics
Remaining MP-s or total MP-s?

That's total MP (in other words, if your opponent picked less Cows).

Important post
I figured out that some powers... are completely flawed. Nothing can stop you from picking 12 Cows, auto-losing and get a bunch of Relics.
My process of thinking went like this: I need to pick 3 only cards... 3 should be enough to have more cows then anyone... wait... can I make a deck with only 2 cards?  WAIT! I don't need to win!! 12 cows, power 5 x 4 = 16 relics, + 5 from all cows + cards = EASY 21 relics!! (I hope no one else realizes this *shifty eyes*)

Good to see this being revamped... sad to see my "loophole" closed.
Well you would need to take at least three cards, otherwise you wouldn't be able to make valid picks with 3 targets.

Umm, I kinda based my whole round strategy on the "loophole" so I'm not exactly happy at having it taken away AFTER my match :(. I guess it doesn't really matter though, I'm not going to win the event anyway and it's still fun.

Here's a reminder of the slot picking and deckbuilding rules :
    Cards from the slots you have chosen (not necessarily all), or from dispersed cards, any number of copies of them
Does this mean we can disperse again this round?
P.s: Are moo cows targeteable?

@dracomageat : As you played right while the "loophole" was being fixed, you'll be awarded 5 Relics as a compensation for the unnecessary restrictions you may have made.

@Jocko : The disperse thing is a typo ^^ Now fixed. Also, you can't Target Holy Cows.

Can I play Holy Cows, or relics for that matter, if I have them?

Question:

Do you have to pick a minimum of 3 cards so as to make valid target picks?  Or if you pick say 2 cards and the remainder relics, do you only then need to make 2 targets?
