Rules Q&A
- Q: My Doom of the Dark Lord resolves. A couple of turns later, I get an Aka Mizu-Umi into play at one of my Provinces. What happens if I cannot draw any more cards and have to destroy the Province with Aka Mizu-Umi attached? Does DotDL get negated for everyone or are the effects negated until the end of turn, which means that my opponent(s) need to keep destroying their Provinces if they cannot draw cards?
A: In the spirit of past rulings, it would only prevent the draws and distruction that turn. Jeff Alexander, "post for 30 May 2002", 31 May 2002
