Rules Q&A
- Q: Hi there!
I have a Moto Naleesh (or other Commander) that has been targetted by a Spirit of the Warrior, granting her an extra ability. My opponent uses Yoritomo Naoto on her during battle. I figure Spirit of the Warrior is not a card 'now in the unit' and so that ability may still be used. My opponent figures the ability is granted to the personality and is now considered to be on that card. Who is correct? (The same question goes for abilities gained by events such as the Turkoise Championship).
Thank you!
A: The ability granted by an action such as Spirit of the Warrior is "on" the card it is granted to, so if that card is in a unit targeted by Yoritomo Naoto, the ability may not be used.
See Glossary, On: An ability, a trait or a keyword on a card is one either printed on the card, or granted to it by some effect. Alex Jones, "Yoritomo Naoto vs gained abilities", 29 May 2012
