The Generous Widow

Here is the scenerio.
Your opponent has no deck, Abomination of Desolation is in his territory, you attack with The Generous Widow.
Do I get to discard a card from his territory?
-
No, because he/she didn't draw any cards.
-
a new beginning is aboms friend. :)
-
Hur is better. He gets to Abom unless your opponent has no deck and fewer than two cards in hand.

And if thats the case I would hope that you've already won.
-
Most games I play with my Abom deck, both people deck extremely quickly because of how much drawing everyone is doing. The reason I don't mind helping my opponent deck out as well is that I am in control of when we draw, and using U&T I can determine the best times to use Generous Widow (who is OP).
-
Am I missing something with abomination and hur, I mean, it's a pretty good combo, but if they manage to kill hur on his first or second attack, you've gotten to discard two cards, that doesn't seem that great to me. Or am I just being silly?
-
The thing about Hur is that he also forces out Lost Souls and prevents your opponent from setting up well due to the shuffling. Its also not that hard to keep Heroes around or get them back.
