Hey all,

This came up in a game last night.  Opponent uses CoW Confusion against me to remove SoG from the game.  I know from previous posts that the ability of Confusion can be targeted by "Negate and Discard the last", but because Confusion is not altering the battle do I not get initiative after it removes the SoG if my opponent still has initiative by numbers?

E.g. I am making a rescue attempt with Salome (RoA) 7/6 my opponent blocks with Corrupt People (CoW) giving them initiative.  They use Confusion to remove SoG from the game.  This doesn't provide special initiative as it is not removing my character from battle nor is it affecting numbers.  Therefore, in my understanding, I cannot interrupt or negate it as they still have initiative to play another enhancement.  Only if my opponent doesn't have another enhancement to play can I try to negate Confusion; is this true?

Thanks

While you wouldn't get initiative right then, I think you could still use something like Gam's Speech to negate it. If later in the battle you get initiative from losing by the numbers, I think you could use a negate on it then.

 could he use Covenant of Noah as an artifact to negate confusion?

Elaborate is confusion not in play?

I understand but Covenant of Noah says interrupt and prevent one evil enhancement discard after use?  you don't need special initiative to use an artifact do you? And you should be able to interrupt confusion right?

Why are we still having trouble with negates?

i get the defaults to play but what about interrupt last
