Title: Cannot be Negated vs. Cannot be Negated Artifact
Post by: tom4coop on April 16, 2012, 07:55:17 PM
Question on the Island's here man.

Michael makes a RA

Tartan defends with the Artifact Assyrian Tribute activated

Michael plays the enhancement - Fire, Smoke and Sulfur - Does this work?

Tom :)

The cannot be negated on Assyrian Tribute doesn't matter. Michael isn't trying to negate that ability. Fire, Smoke, and Sulfur works.

Special Ability - While you are blocking with an Assyrian, negate all special abilities on ENHANCEMENTS (we interpret this to be good and evil) and HEROS.  Cannot be negated during the battle phase.  This makes it a battle of the numbers - correct?

Cards that make other cards CBN are inherently CBN. So Michael's ability still works. Other than that, it would be FBTN.

This is correct, however, abilities that grant Cannot Be Negated status to other cards (such as the way Michael grants CBN status to enhancements played on him) are, themselves, cannot be negated. Thus, Michael's ability is cannot be negated, as well as the enhancements played on him.

Mike is CBN and so are his Enhancements. Tribute doesn't matter in that prospective. The only Enhancements negated are ones played on Characters other than Mike.
