Title: Foretelling Angel has a search ability?
Post by: Sean on April 25, 2019, 05:34:23 PM: Foretelling Angel
"...if it is a Daniel card, you may take it..."

Is this a search ability? And would it be stopped by Hezekiah's Signet Ring? Or trigger something like Great White Throne?

Post by: Sean on April 25, 2019, 05:39:43 PM: So it is a take ability then? I thought take was replacing search, is that incorrect?

Take is being used instead of search but that doesn't mean all takes are searches. If you take from a known location like the board or the top card of a pile, that's not a search. If you have to look through a pile to take a specific card, then the take includes a search.

Correct.

What about "Look at opponent's hand and take an enhancement"?
