It is far more likely that the Vanheim are leaching good scales off their neighbors than that the neighbors are managing to impose even worse scales on a dual-bless rush Pretender.
You can't leech "good" scales from your neighbour - they don't take effect in your provinces. The best you can hope for is an effective "+/- 0" if your neighbour does not have any negatives, what is highly unlikely.

E.g.
With Order-3, Misfortune-3 you'll end up without order, but with full misfortune. Good luck ..
With Turmoil-3,Luck-3 you'll end up without luck, but with full turmoil. Try to get that straight ..
