Complainers
Type: Evil Char. • Brigade: Brown • Ability: 6 / 6 • Class: None • Special Ability: Negate all special abilities on opponent’s Heroes. You may exchange a Hero in battle with a Hero in opponent’s territory. • Identifiers: Generic OT Genderless Human • Verse: Numbers 11:1 • Availability: Faith of Fathers (Set 4)

R/A made. Complainers blocks and chooses a hero that will die by the numbers from opponent. Can player making R/A play something on the original hero which will negate the exchange?

Even if it passes init?

This is from Choose the Blocker/Rescuer in the REG, but it may apply here as well:

The effect may be interrupted or negated by the character(s) being removed if your opponent gains initiative because of the exchange.

Marcus is correct.

Who is Marcus?

So, you go with a white hero and opponent blocks with Complainers and switches for a non-white hero. If that hero is then losing btn, then you can play Blessings, but if he's winning btn at that point and then Complainers plays a battle winner, you can't play Words of Encouragement to interrupt? Is that the deal?

By the way, while writing this I had a very powerful feeling of déjà vu; I'm sure I've talked about interrupting Complainers or something like that before.

That is what I hear them saying. Speaking of déjà vu, How did you know that it was an exchange of Mary Magdalene for the Angel in the Path? Seriously. 

Bump so I can negate with either hero?
