Rules Q&A
- Q: Watch Commander: How does this not change target?
A: The text on Watch Commander doesn't say anything about targeting. So it doesn't affect targeting. It specifies an alternate chain of effects that occur after targeting. Zen Faulkes, "Watch Commander vs Determination follow up", 8 Feb 2008 - Q: How is it different from any other redirection?
A: Redirection doesn't exist in Samurai Edition. Zen Faulkes, "Watch Commander vs Determination follow up", 8 Feb 2008
