Title: Interrupt the Battle
Post by: Noah on July 29, 2017, 10:20:09 PM

There was an interesting interaction that came up in a game today and I just want to make sure that I played it right.

I blocked with a human evil character and played Satan Enters Judas to band to Abaddon. My opponent played Swift Beings and then a card to remove my human EC from the battle.

Does the interrupt the battle on Swift Beings interrupt Satan Enters Judas and kick out Abaddon, or does Abaddon stay because he was the last card played by myself.

Superfluous special abilities,

Spoiler (hover to show)

Satan Enters Judas - "Interrupt the battle. If used by a human, band to a demon. If used by a demon, band to a human. Cannot be negated if used by Judas Iscariot."

Abaddon the Destroyer - "Negate a good or neutral card. You may search deck or reserve for an evil Fortress or Revelation demon. May band to Locust from the Pit. Cannot be negated."

Swift Beings - "Interrupt the battle and play the next enhancement."

The only instant effects an interrupt interrupts is the last one played (If it was played by opponent) and/or one that is removing your last character. Satan Enters Judas is neither of those (Abaddon is the last one played) so its effect isn't interrupted.
