A character being discarded from having 0 or less toughness is a game rule not a special ability. The difference is that if something protects from "discard abilities" then it does NOT protect from the game rule and the character can still be discarded from 0 toughness. If something protects from "discard" (like High Priest's Palace) then it protects from special abilities AND game rules.And from being discarded when losing by the numbers, i.e. the new Joseph

3. No. Both versions of the Lost Souls cards have been errata'd to make their special abilities actually identifiers (which are not negatable).

You're right, I was one errata behind. It's a good thing he hasn't asked about A New Beginning because that would REALLY get hairy.
Is this still true?1. If a SA is prevented , and the prevent is later negated , then you can select a target for the ability. It never targeted in the first place , so there is no change in targets. 1.1 So if Moses prevented 3 evil enhancements in battle and then Moses SA got negated , can the 3 evil enhancements choose a target?
So if Simon the Zealot protects your hand and deck from opponents. Then player with Simon the Zealot , can not do any instead ability used by the other opponent including sinning hand , judge's seat , the rabsaris attacks ( opponent may discard top 5 cards instead) and other cards that say instead?
