Rules Q&A
- Q: A warrior's Patience is played from the Discard Pile so if I am a Warrens Of The One Tribes player : - I can Retrieve it from my discard pile using its own ability only once per game because the Stronghold trait said that the next time this card would be in my discard pile, it will be removed from the game. Is that correct ?
A: Yes. Brook Cunningham, "Path of Wisdom VS A Warrior's Patience", 16 Apr 2010 - Q: Path of Wisdom was not reprinted since A Warrior's Patience was. - Is path of wisdom considered played when a player get it from his discard pile ? So, can I retrieve it many times (once per turn of course) in a same game if I am a Warrens Of the One Tribe Player ?
A: Path of Wisdom is never "played" (see Play).
So, yes it will never be removed from the game via Warrens' trait.
And yes, you may retrieve it as many times as you like, but only due to its own trait. Brook Cunningham, "Path of Wisdom VS A Warrior's Patience", 16 Apr 2010
