Rules Q&A

• Q: assuming it's my events phase and I reacted the region with an event that enters play, a celestial, or itself, will an event revealed face-up during that time resolve?
  A: http://rules.l5r.com/CE_Card_types#Events: "An Event only resolves during the Events Phase."
  http://rules.l5r.com/CE_Sequence_of_play#Events_Phase: "F. a. If the province contains a different face-up card than the one dealt with in the previous steps B through E (for example, if the previous card was discarded and the province refilled face-up), return to step B and follow steps B through F for the new card."
  Still the Events Phase. Events can still resolve unless you've moved on to the next Province somehow. Zen Faulkes, "An event flipping up on Temple of Tsukune", 4 Jul 2011
• Q: An event resolved in a province containing Temple of Tsukune. Does the event "enter play" so that the reaction on the region can be taken?
  A: Maybe yes, maybe no.
  http://rules.l5r.com/CE_Card_types#Events: "They do not normally enter play. ... If an Event enters play somehow, it enters play in your home." Zen Faulkes, "An event flipping up on Temple of Tsukune", 5 Sep 2010

  OH NOES A TYPO, I CANT ANSWER RULES QUESTIONS
  It's not the first time, either a certain member of the rules team is so out of touch with current commonly played cards that a single missing letter means he's incapable of finding a card, or he's being a jerk simply for the sake of it. Neither one of those are particularly appropriate for a rules team member.
  A: Thanks for your assistance in providing the card name.
  Suspecting a typo, I also went to L5R Search, and looked for cards beginning, "temple to t": http://l5rsearch.com/db/search.cgi?titl ... e%20to%20t
  I didn't think "Temple to Te'tik'kir" was the card in question.
  L5R has had a lot of cards with "Temple" in the title over its 15 year history. Maybe I didn't look hard enough, but I did look. Zen Faulkes, "An event flipping up on Temple of Tsukune", 5 Sep 2010
• Q: temple to tskune
  A: I can find no card with that name. Zen Faulkes, "An event flipping up on Temple of Tsukune", 4 Sep 2010
• Q: I am buying a Yasuki Otsuka from my province that has a Temple of Tsukune. Can I use his reaction before he is bowed from the Temple's Trait?
  A: No.
  Both have the same trigger, but one is a trait, and the other is a reaction. Reactions are the last things to happen. http://rules.l5r.com/CE_Timing#Resolvin ... _conflicts Zen Faulkes, "Yasuki Otsuka vs Temple of Tsukune", 13 Sep 2009
• Q: Relevant card text:
  Temple of Tsukune Temple After a Personality enters play from this province: Bow him. Reaction: After a non-Personality card (including this card) enters play from this province: Refill this province face-up.
  Question 1: After Temple of Tsukune enters play and the province is refilled face-up, if the revealed card is an event, does it resolve immediately?
  Question 2: On a subsequent turn, if an event resolves that "enters play in your home" or "remains in play in your home" (examples: The Death of Ryoshun, Commanding Favor), does it trigger the reaction?
  Thank you!
  A: Yes, to both questions.
  Keep in mind that Events that don't specifically come into play via their own text do not trigger Temple to Tsukune's Reaction.

• Q: https://oracleofthevoid.com/#game=l5r,#cardid=7891 [Obh] Temple of Tsukune + Khol Wall. If A ToT is revealed at the start if my turn and resct to reveal another ToT. The second enters play? O you need wait to the next start of your turn?
  A: The second also enters. The Reaction still occurs during the timeframe that Regions can enter.
  (Replying to a player: "Is this legal? 1st temple react to reveal 2nd temple 2nd temple react to reveal celestial or event with trait that brings itself into play Khol Wall trait to flip") Yep, seems fine to me. Brook Cunningham, "Sun and Moon #rules-questions", 15 Apr 2026
