Title: Alexander the Great + Lost Boy
Post by: Sean on June 04, 2019, 04:48:09 PM

Lost Boy
"Protect this Lost Soul from rescue (except by a lone Hero). If your evil human is discarded (except by your ability), you may shuffle all Heroes (except one) in battle."

Alexander the Great
"First strike. Take a City or Artifact, discard a multi-brigade card, or each player must draw 1. If this card is discarded, you may withdraw it instead. May band to a Greek warrior. Cannot be prevented."

So...let's pretend Alexander is 1/1 and you have Lost Boy in your LoB.  Infinite block?

No. If Alexander insteads his discard by withdrawing, he's not discarded to trigger Lost Boy.

Also your opponent could just attack with a lone hero?  Or am I missing something?

You can do a few things but the main one is to have Lost Boy in a Site.  You shuffle the heroes that have access if there are any.

Or just negate Lost Boy.
