mega quote FTW.
A. I said Ira (WA).
B. I guess the loop rule is why it's that way.
and getting back to your example... C. an instant ability that was not negated should still take effect.

A.  Oops, sorry.  My example with the weapon doesn't work, but the rest is still the same.

C.  On my example with the red and green heroes, negates cascade.  Therefore, if the ability that allowed a card to be played is negated, the card is negated as well.  Another example is Coat of Many Colors.  If I negate Coat, it negates everything you gained the ability to play.

Indeed CtC is correct. For your viewing pleasure, let's welcome commandment number 5:

Quote
#5 - Negates Cascade; Any Cards That Take Effect as the Result of a Negated Card, are Also Negated
Use Coat, play an off-color Enhancement, negate Coat, the Enhancement fizzles also.

No. JI would need to resolve before you could activate Silver Trumpets. Once JI resolves (i.e. the next enhancement is played and resolves), the battle is no longer being interrupted.
But JI gives your Priest initiative, which is all Silver Trumpets needs to use its effect, so why couldn't you use it?

All abilities must finish before triggered abilities or doms can be played. Unwritten commandment #11

No. The ability to play an enhancement cannot be interrupted, even indirectly. So since the enhancements were still able to be played, and they weren't directly negated, then you keep the cards. The battle would continue with Maharai and Words vs. TFG.

I understand that you cannot negate the ability to play the next enhancement on Ethopian Treasurer, but you can negate the ability ON the card you play as a result. Hence, you negate the ability to draw a card. I believe the cards you drew all go back to the deck in the order they were drawn. Right?

Jacob/Captain blocked by 12FG results in Jacob v 12FG in a non-FBTN battle. FBTN cannot negate itself but it can be indirectly negated by another card.

This is contrary to everything I have read and heard about FBTN, where is this documented?
+1. I always thought that once FBTN took effect, you had to negate it with card that negated the ability.
+1 I didn't think that negating a banding ability negated the banded character's ability.
It does.  Negate makes it like it never happened, which means abilities that activated directly or indirectly are also negated.
I just realized that if this is this case, my original scenario does create an infinite loop. However, the rule is that in cases like this, FbtN sticks?

BTW, I am now beginning to question everything I thought I knew about Redemption. :P

•      The “cascading negate” in a banding situation only applies if the “play by the numbers” character negates the banding.  The “cascading negate” does not apply if another character negates the banding (e.g., The Twelve-Fingered Giant).

Not unless the enhancement was negated. The question at hand was referring to a situation like the following: Maharai bands to Claudia bands to ET. Player plays four draw cards. Opponent blocks with a character who negates banding (say TFG). Now, the banding was negated, so it's as if Claudia and ET were never in battle, except for the fact that ET's play next ability (and the play next abilities of the enhancements) cannot be interrupted. The only thing that can negate a special ability is either:

a) Make it so the special ability could have never taken place, i.e., indirectly negate it, or
b) Play a card that negates the special ability of that specific card or in some cases all cards (like King of Tyrus)

Since you can't interrupt the ability for ET to play the draw cards (i.e. can't perform case a), and you didn't negate the draw directly (i.e. didn't perform case b) then the drawing stays.

me too. things in the identifier line are negated? FBTN negated without being negated? 5 lost souls still wins the game, right?

Unfortunately, yes. At least in T1...

I see. You are correct. I didn't read carefully that you were only negating banding. I was basing my response on negate all.

Alright, I have another question and need to resurrect this thread. First of all, I recall a thread recently where I leared something startling and would just like to confirm it: If I band a hero into battle, and then the banding is negated, does the banded hero's ability fizzle (even if the banded hero is CBN)? I remember the answer being yes, and if so, then would the principle of fizzling something when the ability that activated it is negated apply to abilities other than banding?

If this is also true, then what if I have Lampstand active in my Tabernacle, then RA with Eleazar and deactivate it, then my opponent plays, say, FA, and then later Eleazar's ability is negated...what happens?

Can CBN abilities be indirectly negated?

You can't that I am aware of. Once a CBN card hits the table, it sticks. You would have to clarify the example you were referring to. You had mentioned a CBN banding hero having the band negated. That is not possible (i.e. if I RA with Elders of Jerusalem banded to Elders of Jerusalem, then you block with 12FG, my band is not negated).

No, I mentioned a CBN banded hero fizzling if the band is negated.

I guess after learning that Jacob + Captain + TFG = no FbtN, I'm just questioning the whole system. Does "fizzling" take priority over CBN? I just don't know if I know anything at all. :P

No. CBN abilities cannot "fizzle". If Captain said: "Negate all SA's except banding. Cannot be negated" then the battle would remain FBTN even if he was kicked out by TFG. But Captain doesn't say CBN. So his ability is fizzleable.
