Potential issue: if blocking can happen mid-battle, you RA, I block low, play TitF on your Hero in battle, then play Lurking or Rage or whatever to bring in a bunch of PD's or OM's. I know that wouldn't be OP in T1, but in T2 it'd be a good way to have 5 CBN blocks that also empty hand for SitC...
On character abilities, a plain "hero" is usually short for "this hero." For example, "Hero is immune to demons."On enhancements, "hero" or "your hero" can often refer to any one of your heroes. See "Set your hero aside" or "Set hero aside." On the enhancement Thorn in the Flesh, it means "Each time one of your demons blocks..."In The Disciples, we are shortening "(This) Hero is immune to demons." to the shorter "Immune to demons" (like the recent ECs who got "Immune to lone heroes.") Similarly, the characters with first strike just say "First strike." rather than "This character has first strike."Also, characters that protect only themselves from some effect say "Protected from capture." rather than "Protect this character from capture."We like to shorten/streamline wording, as long as it remains perfectly clear who gets the effect.

I know I had heard of it before this thread.I agree that this would be a fairly devastating play. What would make it even more powerful is if you had 5 copies of the PG PD, so that you can place them on the rest of your opponent's heroes. Some T2 decks would be able to come back from that, but it sure wouldn't be easy.
No, They're 5/5 and 5/4 respectively, God's Provision doesn't change abilities, its a gain til you're not dying ability. The answer to the other three, is Cherubim, Gold Hero, and Gold Hero. (I think)

Based on the interpretation, and to keep it consistent with all cards, here is how each of my examples would work:1) Each hero gains the ignore.2) Each hero gains the ability to play enhancements of any brigade.3) Each hero gains access to any site.

In my example the abilities of the EC is 0/0. So either just ET would be 0/0 or both heroes would be 0/0. But that's neither here nor there because my main point is this part of Bryon's post:Quote from: Bryon on May 07, 2010, 02:26:54 AMOn enhancements, "hero" or "your hero" can often refer to any one of your heroes.

That's why I have always ruled TitF that it is only applied to the demon on which it is played.
Emphasis mine. You are forgetting a very important word here...
Whatever. I guess I'll get back to you and try to see your point of view. Maybe. I don't know.
