Great for anti-stark siege and anti-targ (if they are running a no-int challenges true heir to the throne agenda)... great for lanni in general

This is just great all around! Most decks I play against would be shut down by this plot.

How does this interact with epic phases? The card specifically states "that phase" not "during the challenge phase", so would someone need to re-win an intrigue before doing a different challenge in a Battle for the Shield Islands (TGF), Battle of Ruby Ford (BoRF), or War of Five Kings (RoW); essentially strangling non-intrigue decks?

Yes. It also means that if Lucas Blackwood (GotC) dies outside the challenge phase that player cannot make use of his ability unless he somehow already won an intrigue challenge that phase.
