The errata'd ability for Mayhem reads:
If it is not the first round of the game, each player must shuffle hand into deck to draw six.
The Tournament Host Guide reads:
No player may play the Dominant, Mayhem during the first round of play.
I have seen it ruled since the errata that Mayhem may be played in the first turn without effect, and this is the way the errata reads. Is the Host Guide's addition actually changing the ruling?

I do not believe it does. The errata is accurate. DOMINANTS can be played anytime. Mayhem just won't do anything during the first round.

That was one of the original options we looked into when discussing the Mayhem issue, but I have no knowledge of it being an actual rule, since we favored the errata in the end. I'm guessing its just an error transcribed from our discussions, as I see no reason why it should be restricted from play.
