A topic from AEG's L5R CCG Rules forum, copied for Oracle of the Void from a copy of the forum saved in October 2015, so pages it didn't save are missing. Players' names are left out; the rules officials are named. Rulings are as they stood on these dates; later rulings, the rulebooks and the Rules Archive may differ.

I am under the impression that text from Oracle of the Void should be taken as final say for MRP.
Some newer cards have names as titles, such as "Asukai, the Tireless". Some of these cards on Oracle indicate that "the Tireless" is a keyword, while some others with titles do not have the title as a keyword.
Should we include these titles as keywords, and add them to the number of keywords a card has, or ignore it as an oversight on Oracle?
Sadly a few games ended in question because of "Murderous Intent".
Thanks in advance guys!

The bit of flavor after a comma in card's title is indeed considered a single keyword.
It will be added to the Ivory Clan Champions sometime before their tournament legality, but it should be present on the entries for all cards prior to that.
However, if it's any consolation, we're pretty sure at this point that we're never going to print another card that counts keywords ever again.
