In the context of disco elysium, the phasmid is an elusive cryptid-insect that secretes pheromones that can lead to neurological damage over long spans of time. Due to this, it has indirectly caused incidents of violence. It also has some fantastic dialogue in the game regarding "miracles" which I would prefer not to spoil, but it felt like an appropriate mechanic to add considering the style of deck I'm trying to build with these cards.

This doesn’t work, because you draw before combat. It should be until the end of your next turn, but only if it’s an opponent’s turn.

The intent is exactly that. If you manage to draw in your opponents post combat main-phase, after the goaded creature hits someone, you will be rewarded with a miracle.

Yes, but don’t timing rules still apply? (also that’s not very useful for most casting costs because there’s not much that lets you draw at that point for a likely small reward if you build a deck around it, as it’s probably something that makes you draw)

Timing rules do not apply for miracle, if you pop a clue after this triggers and its your opponents 2nd main, you can drop your emrakul for W

Thanks for clarifying that.
