You probably can't do this with Madness Network

Hi, quick question:

Reaction cards are played in response to *other* methuselah's minions,
right? So, if you have a Madness Network in play, you couldn't:

a) Wait until the end of another player's minion phase
b) Attempt to burn the Network with one of your untapped Malkavians
c) Attempt to block with another one of your own untapped Malkavians
d) Add stealth to the first
e) Add intercept to the second
f) Resolve the combat with yourself.

Or could you?

Thanks!

You cannot. As you say, reaction cards are played in response to *other*
meth's actions. Likewise, even blocking is only allowed in response to
another player's action. If you control the acting minion, you cannot be a
blocker, or react. You cannot block yourself. You cannot _ever_ enter
combat with yourself.
