Title: Questions about search ability
Post by: redemption collector 777 on July 15, 2015, 06:11:28 PM

Just for clarification:

Are any of these a search ability??

1. Revealing the top X cards of deck. Like the Revealer LS

2. Any ability that looks at a certain amount of cards and you can take 1 card  to hand and underdeck the rest. (Like Susanna and/or Alexander the Sadducee)

3. or any ability that reveals certain amount of cards and puts the LS cards into play and underdecks the rest (Like Gideon's call and Fishers of men)

no, no, and no. those all work because they are reveal abilities and not search abilities :)

Based on my understanding of how "reveal" and "search" work, none of these abilities are considered "searches" because they only target a portion of your deck.

Correct, none of those things are searches.
