Also: Doesn't DON interrupt?
No dominant interrupts.
true. DoN negates, which is equivalent to an interrupt. however, it only does this after it's discarded, so the artifact doesn't continue through the phase.
Fix'd. Equivalent =/= the same as.

I only mention it because there apparently is a distinction between negate and interrupt/prevent. I don't really understand what that is, but it exists and has affected rulings in the past. I don't mean to be disagreeable.

News to me.  I've always thought that Negate, by definition, was "interrupt and prevent".

The more I learn about this game, the harder it gets to teach.

That's how it used to be, apparently it's not anymore.

im pretty sure 'negate' is being defined a bit differently in the new reg, something along the lines of 'cancel'.

I believe interrupt + prevent=negate, but negate =/= interrupt + prevent.

I believe, my good sir, that you are correct. Though why the converse is true and the inverse isn't is beyond me...
