Choose The Blocker 101

Blessings.

Sorry I'm just lazy to further research on exceptions to using CTB.

Can I choose a blocker in play that is being currently ignored OR whose brigade is currently ignored?

No you cannot.

Quote from: REG > Instant Abilities > Choose Blocker or Rescuer > How to Play
You can’t force your opponent to block with a character that cannot enter battle (i.e., an ignore condition).

You can if you begin with an interrupt. EX. start with a provisioned hero, choose Red Dragon.  Then band in Miriam.  Play stillness/highway/visions of iddo the Seer (get it all back), then play coat ANd Interrupt with Obediance of noah on Miraim to choose an egyptian.  The Interrupt allows the choosing because it interupts Miriams ability to ignore until after the CTB ability has completed.

I dont know if you want to go to all that trouble to do that, but you can if you want.

So how do you interrupt Red Dragon's immunity and Miriam's ignore ability without interrupting Coat's ability allowing Miriam to play OoN? Hmmmmm?  ::)

I think crustpope's post contained a typo or two...

What custpope meant to say is you can activate Hidden Treasures, start a rescue with a provisioned Miriam, choose Abner to block and then play Clemency of David. After that you would then give your opponent his first chance to play a card or two. I do admit to being a little puzzled by crustpope's fixation on Miriam. If he Provisioned Aaron (Patriarchs) he could place Peace Treaty on a Templed Table of Showbread, and then ignore any single brigade utilizing his Hiddent Treasures.

Yeah. Your problem is that you just don't know how to spell.  ;)
