Feels, when one assumes control of (5,2,4)
I believe the answer is:
takes in hand
'feels when one' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.
'assumes control of' is the wordplay.
'assumes' becomes 'takes' ('take' can be a synonym of 'assume').
'control of' becomes 'inhand' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'takes'+'inhand'='TAKES IN HAND'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for takes in hand that I've seen is " Disciplines".)
