Rules Q&A
- Q: ShE: Togashi Toa and Way of the Dragon: If I have WotD in play, is Toa's ability Battle/Engage?
A: No.
(Replying to a player: "Thanks, is that because it is a trait that makes the ability battle/engage and WotD only counts as a ring for actions?") Correct! Brook Cunningham, "Sun and Moon #rules-questions", 26 Aug 2025 - Q: @Brook Cunningham [ShE] Does opponent cards targeted by Togashi Toa stays Face Up?
and please elaborate
A: a player a player The answer given by a player is mostly correct, the card does stay face-up, though they described the reason slightly incorrectly.
Turning a card face-up is an instant effect, not technically "permanent" (that term refers to an ongoing effect with an "until the game ends" duration). Instant effects happen, then stay that way until another contrary effect "un-does" them. Examples of other instant effects include bowing, dishonor, movement, and destruction.
