Rules Q&A
- Q: Hello!
Dying Remonstration (http://imperialassembly.com/oracle/#cardid=10936) says :
How much honor a target player loses, if I play DR on Personality that is a created card (f.e. Lion Ancestor, Nimuro's twin)? Seppuku effect destroys personality, after that created card ceases to exist and there is no PH value around to use for next effect.
Thanx!
A: When an effect that causes a created card to leave play needs to check for a value from that card, it checks what the value was immediately before it left play. Jon Palmer, "Dying Remonstration and created cards", 24 Apr 2014
