I am playing a multi-player game.  One player has Thirty Pieces of Silver activated.  I make a rescue attempt.  My opponent blocks and plays Joseph in Prison.  Does my hero get removed because of the enhancement, or does the artifact take over a discard my hero instead?


Type: Artifact • Brigade: None • Ability: None • Class: None • Special Ability: Regardless of battle outcome Hero is discarded. "David's Harp" has no effect. May be used twice. • Play As: Once per turn, discard one Hero in play used in a rescue attempt or battle challenge against you after that battle. Negate David’s Harp. May be used once per battle and twice per game. • Identifiers: None • Verse: Matthew 26:15-16 • Availability: Apostles booster packs (Ultra Rare)

Type: Evil Enh. • Brigade: Black • Ability: None • Class: None • Special Ability: Interrupt the battle and remove all cards in battle from the game. • Identifiers: None • Verse: Genesis 39:20 • Availability: Patriarchs booster packs (Ultra Rare)

The hero is removed and 30PoS gains a counter.

Regardless of whether 30 actually discards anything, having it active for a turn counts as a use.

The may seems more to be clarifying the uses (i.e.: it can be used once per battle and twice per game), but as I said having it active counts as a use whether or not it discards anything. I believe Ark works the same way.

If it does, it was ruled wrong at the last tournament I was at then. I don't see how you have to add a counter when conditions aren't met for the card to used.

As long as there is a battle they are used, regardless of d/c or not.
