Just so no one misses this. Lord Jeff is not on the restricted list.
Him and the Initiate of Haung Hun are still friends and they're still talking to each other.
Lord Jeffery Farington - No longer restricted!

Which is funny because they really only see each other in passing!
~I crack myself up.
Good catch! I'm finding these changes pretty interesting. Doesn't look like we have to worry about the first turn win anymore either.
Is Huang Hun giving anyone else fits? My wife is not happy that I can use 1 card to bounce 3 people back to her hand...

Yep. Thus it now resides on the restricted list.
My advice to your wife, though. Hand discard, effect cancels, Dreamlands Fanatic, and/or Rich Widow (even out of faction for the latter 2) should help fight the menace.
Initiate of Huang Hun also comes with some drawbacks, especially when facing Deep Ones. Any character that has a nasty effect upon entering play - such as Deep One Rising or Hermetic Scholar - can make playing him more trouble than it's worth.
Funny thing is, she's playing a horrendously good Deep Ones deck. Deep One Rising can slow me down a little bit, but I keep her Ravagers out of the mix now. Cthulhu doesn't have a good way to combat Huang, at the moment.

Remember, she gets to choose who she returns.
But I'll re-point to Dreamlands Fanatic though.
U play Huang, She picks Fanatic. Both return. She triggers fanatic back into play. U can play haung again, but... won't do you much good until you kill the fanatic.
Which, of course is an easy target for say... Diseased Sewer Rats (a common sight in ST decks). However, DSR and Initiate are no longer on speaking terms.
Her draws are very interesting, as she either seems to have every card she needs, or none of them. When I tend to get loaded up on Huang, she can't find a Fanatic ;-) I'm fighting an uphill battle, Magnus!
Don't forget she can mulligan if she doesn't start with the Fanatic or other key cards - no longer just for tournaments anymore!
While the new FAQ and everything is awesome, and I'm glad they're not doing anything funky with block formats, what I'd REALLY like is for them to get back to releasing some asylum packs. How about it, is Written and Bound going to show up soon?

I would be VERY surprised if it was not available early next week, if not already in many places.
