The people in this thread aren't paying much attention. RBD only Discards cards drawn by an opponent because of a SA that opponent used. If you ANB them, they can draw no problem. You'd have to place ANB on your Green hero using Sent to Serve (none of the other placers would work), then use Stalks of Flax, then force them to rescue with that Hero.

Also, Nazareth only protects from Shuffle by an opponent, so the same thing applies to that and protecting RBD from shuffle.

Now, if you ever do manage to pull this combo off, you deserve an award.

the opponent needs to play ANB in order for that to happen. It says cards used by that opponent.

Is there a better combo?  Yes.  Is it an easy combo?  No.  Do I care?  No.  Why?  Because I'm old an obstinate.  I will only play ANB decks until they ban the card.  Then I'll keep playing ANB decks in back rooms accessible only by alleys via a door requiring a password to enter.

They'll never ban it. The next step is another Errata:

A New Beginning, 0/0 Green GE

"Selected Green Brigade Hero gains 4/5 while this card is in battle. Cannot be negated."

That would never happen.  Then Micah could recur it.  OP.

Yeah Micah could recurr it, but it would be practically worthless except for FBTN decks.

Then again, FBTN is worthless....

why only Sent to Serve? Tithe and all the heroes would work, right?

Is there a card that bands both players heroes into battle?
