I would say no. Cards do not reset when set aside or removed from the game, but they are rest when returned to deck or hand.

I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!

That Play As is one of the ones that needs an update to make it clearer. It's supposed to be interpreted as: "Your [opponent's] hand size [limits are] 1 less than [they] would normally be."
I agree with the "other Prof" (assuming that he meant to include the red parts that I added).

So, would that also include the max hand size (decreased to 15?)

Also: Is this official?

Possibly, but not as far as I know.

I'd say yes for now. "Reduce opponent's hand" doesn't really have an official definition AFAIK, but it has been understood for the past 13? years since Warriors came out to mean what my suggested play as said. However, it would probably be updated to this given the new usage of restrict abilities:

"Restrict opponent from having more than 7 cards in hand (or 9 if Tables of the Law is active) at the end of each of his turns, until this character is discarded."

In any case, I can be fairly certain that at Nationals or any future tournament, D&H will not force your opponent to discard any cards above 7, nor will it stop opponents from drawing beyond 7 cards. So hopefully none of you are expecting to build decks based on that.

People built decks based on the fact Angry mob doesn't say that the heroes are placed back face up. Someone will place this card to force the ruling.

Anyone is more than welcome to do that. But there is little chance that it will work out for him/her. Just sayin'.

The "play-as" is not an errata. Errata is meant to change the original ability of the card, such as A New Beginning requiring the battle to be a rescue attempt. The play as (which is obviously worthless as is because it's so terribly worded) IS a play-as once it's fixed, not an errata. It's just saying what the special ability means.

That's your daddy's errata.  Just like his oldsmobile, it's ancient and worthless compared to new errata.
