Title: Rain becomes dust
Post by: Aelec Enitnel on May 28, 2011, 03:58:34 PM: Can Jerusalem Tower, I Am Mercy, or the Four Drachma Coin, stop rain becomes dust?
When the cards are revealed where is their location?

You are correct.

Post by: Alex_Olijar on May 28, 2011, 10:14:23 PM: Yes. They are drawn and revealed as they are not protected from the reveal portion.

Post by: Chronic Apathy on May 29, 2011, 12:24:18 AM: It's worth noting that, for Four Drachma Coin, if you discard it, its ability still protects against RBD, though the cards are, as previously mentioned, still revealed.

Yes. They are drawn and revealed as they are not protected from the reveal portion.

To clarify, they are not drawn (i.e. they don't go to hand) they are just revealed, and then returned to the top of deck. If Simon the Z's ability is active, then RBD has no effect at all on the deck, and cards are drawn as normal.
