My imaginings of the process by which Nergal ADV came to be:

LSJ is talking to a play ester. We'll call him "Baali Freak", or BF.

LSJ: What do you have for me?
BF: Well, I played 42 games with the Nergal deck you built for me, but
was only able to get 40 table sweeps.
LSJ: Hmmm. <scratches chin> What happened in those two games?
BF: I decked myself playing minion phase untaps, stealth, and block
fails cards through three ousts, and couldn't out-bloat weenie
presence bleed predators. Playing him is just a touch card intensive.
LSJ: <nodding> Ok. I'll see what I can do.

During the update on WW's promo card list in the web, the entry for
Argent Baton seems to have disappeared...

What is the official release date for this card, and when does it
become tournament legal?

Ummm... what? I was just thinking that the above card is one of the
more useful ones in the set, most of the others seem a lot more
wallpapery to me.

When playing an ally deck, reducing incentive of stealing your allies
(and diminishing ease of them getting used against you) is pretty big.
The aus/dom requirement is hinderance, of course. We'll see if this
actually ends up being useful.

A doubt about this card...

If I control a Follower of Set with ser THA, will the Treaty actually
*remove* one level of Thaumaturgy? I'd say yes (but probably
it is not designer's intent).

Same story for a Tremere with tha SER. Ok, this situation does
not apply to any out-of-the-box vampire at the moment, but it is
not impossible to realize...

Ciao ciao,
Emiliano

I immediately thought that this card could be very nasty...in a deck
that runs Temptation or Mind Rape.

Steal your prey's vampire. While you control it, play SoaBO on it.
It returns to its controller. Steal it again. It burns (and the
thief takes one unpreventable - who is the acting minion if you used
Mind Rape?). Three actions to burn a vampire, w/o diablerie? Could
even be a trophy concept?

BTW, 'steal' isn't a V:TES keyword with respect to minions, as far as
I can see. I'm assuming it refers to any effect that causes control
to change, even temporary.

No. Card text restricts to once each turn. See also Black Forest Base.

OTOH, when you're playing Aus you can also just block the stealer and kick
him in the face...

Or if you're playing Dom you might want to steal the guy back, it's way more
useful !!

In short, I'm afraid that our local nobleman has got it right here.
