Here are the four new VtES promo cards, which are part of the VtES Tournament Kit 2009:
SchreckNET
Cardtype: Action
Clan: Nosferatu
+1 stealth. Unique.
If this Nosferatu's capacity is 6 or more, he or she untaps. Put this card in play. Whenever a referendum succeeds, you may tap this card to look at any Methuselah's hand.

Inceptor
Cardtype: Master
Unique master.
Put this card on a vampire of capacity 1, and put three cards from your hand, ash heap or library on this card, face up but out of play. This vampire may play other copies of these cards as if he or she had the Discipline required (if any) at superior.

Abactor
Cardtype: Action
+1 stealth hunt action.
Gain 5 blood. After successful resolution, a referendum is called to call a blood hunt on this vampire (independent of the action, just as if he or she had committed diablerie).

Salt of Thoth
Cardtype: Reaction
Clan: Tremere
Cost: 2 blood
Usable by a tapped Tremere. Cause a (D) action targeting a location you control to fail and put this card on that location. You may burn this card to cause a (D) action targeting this location to fail.

Wow Inceptor is broken.... For example, Lost in Crowds, Renewed Vigor and Repulsion?

Or Enhanced Senses, Earth Meld and something else to your liking.

Sure, Inceptor is really good, but is it broken? How many copies of a Unique Master do you put in your deck? A lot of to see it early? Then you have a lot of dead cards later on. Your Lost in Crowds, Renewed Vigor, Repulsion combo sounds pretty good, but if your Inceptor is the only vamp in the deck that can play Renewed Vigor, that's a lot of dead cards if you don't draw Inceptor or he gets burned or is in torpor.

I think it will be a strong card, but not broken.

of course not, i can play a small cap inceptor along with matthias and guess what : i have a free salubri who can play 2 obeah cards of my choice + another one, exactly like matthias, and at the same time i am bypassing the scarce trait that makes Salubri tool difficult to abuse. How strange is that ?
