Rules Q&A
- Q: 3) I play Ninja Thief and move my Tessen to my opponent's Personality. Does this count as his/her personality attaching a card? Can I use Yokubo's second reaction to destroy all the cards already attached to that personality?
A: Yes and yes. Jeff Alexander, "post for 19 December 2001", 19 Dec 2001
