Title: REG messup??
Post by: fyero on August 22, 2010, 07:56:24 PM
With the new Gabriel the REG says his ability is this: Type: Hero Char. • Brigade: Silver • Ability: 10 / 6 • Class: None • Special Ability: Search discard pile for a good Luke Enhancement and shuffle it into deck to protect Luke Heroes from capture and discard. • Play As: Search discard pile for a good Luke Enhancement and return it into deck to protect Luke Heroes from capture and discard.

But i hav the new Gabriel and his ability says this:

Search discard pile for a good Luke enhancement and add it to hand. You may remove it from the game to protect Gabriel from discard and capture.

Wow, Nice catch.

The special ability that was printed on Gabriel was from an older version of the list. He started out with a completely different ability - I actually proposed the one that he was printed with, but in a list after that it was changed to what the REG has. I suspect Rob didn't change the text on Gabriel before it was uploaded to the printers.

Is the protection ongoing?

If protection was instant, it wouldn't be very useful at all...

Well, do I have to remove one enhancement from the game per game, or once per protection?

Once per protection. Fortunately, Luke has no shortage of sweet GE's.

A fun use for the new Gabriel is spamming protection for Samson in a Silver/Judges deck.

Before or after you use Birth Foretold to have a 12/6 CBN protect?

That is what you spam.  Birth Foretold is a Luke enhancement.  Gabriel gets it back.  You can go every other turn with a protected Samson.  Or, if you Gather one of those two heroes, and band them together, you can go every turn with a protected Samson.  :)

Or you could stop abusing Birth Foretold like Bryon suggested and use it for the purpose it was created for: combos.

;). Birth Foretold is without a doubt in my top 3 favorite Disciples cards now that I've realized its potential.

So, which is the actual/correct/legal/playable effect, the printed one or the REG one?
Title: Re: REG messup??
Post by: Red Dragon Thorn on August 23, 2010, 08:20:49 AM
The printed one, Mike will change the REG shortly - He built the new cards off of the final list, which included that version of Gabriel's ability, as opposed to the one that got printed.
