This is not nearly as bonkers as some of the win combos I've seen posted here, but it made me giggle, so I thought I'd mention it.  I was battling Mad Bomber Blade in Zhu's temple.  DW Nightmist plays Oblivion and hits two 4's, uses Amulet to redirect to blade, and wipes three shinobi assasins.  The 12 damage from Oblivion makes blade the lowest-hp target, so I put all three assasins on Nightmist's deck, and use attunemet to deal 9 more ftw.

You can't do that, I'm afraid. You can only put ninjas on decks without an environment card on them.

Hmmm, that's interesting. That's not what the card say.s Time to look at the physical cards. That is a very cool interaction.

Probably one of the few times you actually want to stack them all on one hero deck.

Yeah, pwatson, I had the same issue and had to go back and check the printed card. I think they were changed just before printing to remove the clause you and I were remembering...

The change was a good one.  Can't say more but if you look at the proofs from that deck I'd rather have the current effect.

I agree after looking it up the original proof was much harsher.

Oh, yeah, totally – I am not complaining!  :innocent:

(Heh, and while I kinda liked being able to drop them on villain decks, it was just too overpowered in favor of the heroes.  :wink: )

Prophetic Vision works, too!

..right? I can't remember the "look at"/"reveal" distinctions.

There isn't one. They mean the same thing, I believe.

I don't know if the game even uses "look at" language; it should be "reveal" in all instances. They are the same.

I think Tachyon's base power is "look at", which always struck me as odd.

Tachyon's base power has changed in the foil pack, interestingly.

Oh yes, now it says "reveal and replace". Much simpler.

It changes the behaviour too. If there's a Shinobi Assassin on top of Tachyon's deck, she still gets to discard an (unknown) card.

I ended up with a similar game to the OP -- in that case, it was Scholar and he had Truth Seeker in play. Put two Shinobi Assassins on him while Apostate is sitting at 6 HP...

The Shinobi effect is nice for alot of the heroes with 'reveal/play top card' powers, like Captain Cosmic and Setback. Especially when you know they'll hit a villain target.
