Rules Q&A
- Q: So I bring Scribing the Tao into play, copying the Ring of the Void's Limited ability. I bow the spell instead of RoV and the 4Chi shugenja it's on to draw the card. Does this count as casting a spell? (For say, Ring of Air?)
A: Yes. Zen Faulkes, "Scribing the Tao and RoV", 7 Mar 2005 - Q: When a spell bows to perform an ability, is that also considered casting the spell?
