Rulings applying to this card
Rulings are official clarifications on the way ambiguous rules or card texts should be interpreted.
Choosing to ignore a reaction
Ruling issued on November 22nd 2024
Situation:
I deploy the Pirate ship Mecha Suit, which has a reaction that causes a durability loss to another ship when it is deployed. My opponents currently have no ships in play. Am I forced to cause a durability loss to one of my own ships?
Ruling:
No. Since this effect is a reaction, you can choose whether or not to activate it.
Touching an opponent's cards without their consent
Ruling issued on November 17th 2024
Situation:
A player uses an action with the Deny keyword, allowing them to look at the top card of an opponent's arsenal and decide whether to place it back on top or move it to the bottom. The player reaches for the opponent's arsenal, but the opponent dislikes others touching their cards. Are they required to let the player handle their cards?
Ruling:
No, the opponent is not required to let the player touch their cards. The player must respect their opponent’s preference and avoid handling the arsenal. Instead, the opponent must assist in resolving the action by showing the player the top card of their arsenal (without looking at it themselves), asking whether it should go on top or bottom, and placing it in the chosen position (still without looking). Consent matters!
