Rules Q&A
- Q: Rukota's ability reads:
Reaction: After the resolution of a battle, or an action or trait from a card that another player owns, if the resolution or card destroyed Rokuta: Create a 0F/2C/1PH Scorpion Clan • Courtier • Apprentice Personality (in your home). Choose a player, who looses 3 Honor.
Question is: Can rokuta react when he is destroyed by a trigger outside the Attack phase?
For example, my opponent plays Mysterious Death and I choose Rokuta. Is it a legal trigger since it was an action from a card that another player owns?
Or should I read her reaction this way:
Reaction: After the resolution of a battle, or an action or trait from a card DURING A BATTLE that another player owns, if the resolution or card destroyed Rokuta: Create a 0F/2C/1PH Scorpion Clan • Courtier • Apprentice Personality (in your home). Choose a player, who looses 3 Honor.
A: Yes, Rokuta can React to Mysterious Deaths.
There's no grammatic basis for you to infer the text you added should be there; "After the resolution of a battle, or an action or trait..." parses to "After the resolution of a battle, or [after the resolution of] an action or trait..." Brook Cunningham, "Shosuro Rokuta trigger", 11 May 2012
