- Q: http://imperialassembly.com/oracle/#cardid=11579
is it comparing the printed force of the target to Shao's printed force? because the way it's worded to me sounds like it's comparing the targets printed force to Shao's current force. otherwise i think it should also specify that's it's referring to Shao's printed force as well...
A: If an effect is comparing two different things, such as Shao's current Force versus the enemy card's printed Force, it will say so specifically.
If only one value is mentioned in a comparison (in this case, "printed Force"), then that value is the only one compared; thus it is Shao's printed Force compare versus the enemy's printed Force. Brook Cunningham, "Togashi Shao and "printed force"", 2 Sep 2014
