A question about the infernal familiar...

Okay, so if I have a minion attempt an action with the infernal
familiar, does the card get an investment counter if the action is
blocked? (IE Ladislas Toth uses the infernal familiar to put a choir
card into play, somebody blocks.) I want to say no, but the card text
says whenever the minion plays a card that requires a blah blah blah,
not when they do so successfully...
Thank you in advance,
~m

It already got one when the card was played. The success / failure of
the action is irrelevant.

You're confusing success of the action with playing a card. The action
card isn't played successfully in any meaningful sense - it's just
played. The action may then prove to be successful or unsuccessful.
