Noob question: Peter/Andrew vs Foul Spirit
« on: April 08, 2020, 10:09:40 AM »

Sorry if this is a bad question, but my family just got Redemption to pass the time under quarantine, and we keep running into this problem when we play the I/J starter decks.

Player A plays Peter (negate demons) banded with Andrew (may band with Peter). Player B plays Foul Spirit (negate heroes).

Does everyone's abilities get negated? And if so, doesn't that mean Andrew's banding ability is negated, so Player A must withdraw Andrew?

Thanks!

Foul Spirit's ability is preemptively negated by Peter, so he never gets a chance to negate Andrew and Peter.

Heroes enter battle before evil characters, therefore a negate ability on a hero would prevent an evil character from activating.

Welcome to the boards!

There are no bad questions. Red is correct on how it plays out.

One common mistake I do see in your post is that negating Andrew's band would remove Peter, not Andrew. Character abilities activate when they enter battle, so Andrew enters battle BEFORE Peter. Negating a band just doesn't really come up with the starter decks, since Peter and John negate Foul Spirit, and the I deck has nothing to negate the Ruth band.

Eh, we're both big guys who play Flood. I can see the mixup (though I think it's more flattering for me than him)  ;D

Back to the subject at hand, welcome BeaverQB!
