take out bab forces and put in reach of desperation. then aocp would be easier to play.

Already some good advice. I had forgotten that PoA was an "involves music" enhancement. I had the sites in because it was a Bab theme thing, but as I look at it now they probably don't serve a huge purpose. That would also require exchanging Site Doubler LS for another. Since I have had trouble with angel offenses, I'm thinking the anti-angel LS if I pull sites. Reach is a no-brainer, as I had no brain when I left it out. I toyed with David's Music, and may again. It's been in and out a couple of times in previous variants of this deck.

Just be careful with reach and lydia because then you can only play a white brigade enhancement.

that's no longer correct. but i can't remember the thread.

Since when? If you interrupt the battle you interrupt the sa and that is what lets her play purple enhancements

I don't know what ruling is being talked about, but I can see why there might be a question. If I play Reach on Lydia, and it totally interrupts her SA including the ability to play purple enhancements, then the play of Reach itself is interrupted (though not prevented into the future), which means you couldn't draw/play, and which would create one of those loops Cactus loves so much.

No it wouldn't. The ubrella is opened by the interrupt, not the other way around, so the interruption in happening in space not yet occupied and therefore the ability to play Reach with Purple was never actually interrupted.

What this dude said lol
