Rules Q&A
- Q: So I saw [urlhttp://www.alderac.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=59&t=97892]this ruling[/url], and I'd like a little further explaination of this interaction.
Aren't both of these Continuous Effects? Don't continuous effects apply at any time the relevant cards are in play? Wouldn't that include the minimum value adjustment for Pillowbook? Why would Pillowbook not re-evaluate it's own effect when a Taishuu enters play?
A: REVERSED!
