Rules Q&A
- Q: So, Bayushi Irezu is a Soul of Bayushi Kwanchai which means we can use Kwanchai as a legal proxy for Irezu. However Bayushi Kwanchai is the Soul of Bayushi Tangen.
Irezu = Kwanchai = Tangen
So can I use Tangen as a legal proxy for Irezu?
A: Per the Emperor Edition rulebook, page 116, "“Soul of” Personalities are equivalent to the older card for deck construction purposes. In a game, you may use the older card as a proxy for the “Soul of” version, but you must inform the other player of any differences in stats or wording between the two."
This definition does not take into account any other cards which may also have "Soul of" relationships with the original version of the card. Therefore, as Bayushi Irezu is the Soul of Bayushi Kwanchai, you may only use copies of Bayushi Kwanchai as a proxy for Bayushi Irezu. Jon Palmer, "Soul of a Soul of", 4 Jan 2012
