Rules Q&A
- Q: [LE] Hitomi Kobai: most (if not all) events that enter your home and have abilities require the event to be discarded as cost of the action. Is this cost waived?
A: No. Upon copying the ability onto Kobai, it would become self-referential, and he would have to discard himself from play to use it. Brook Cunningham, "Sun and Moon #rules-questions", 11 Dec 2025
