Title: Does Grapes interrupt?
Post by: beenredeemed on June 14, 2010, 10:53:33 AM
Grapes of Wrath (GOW):  lamb instant  SA:  Discard an evil card in battle to shuffle all remaining characters in battle into owner's decks. If the current rescuer doesn't have the most Redeemed Souls, he may begin a new battle.

Net:  Black 2/2 EE  SA:  Take any Hero in play prisoner and place in your land of bondage.  Hero is treated as a Lost Soul.


Question:  10/10 Hero makes RA, opponent blocks with Black 3/4 EC.  Opponent has initiative, plays Net.  Hero is being captured.  Before any cards are moved, Rescuer plays GOW and discards net.  Does the Hero get shuffled or, because Net is already in the field of battle is the Hero captured instead?

If Hero gets shuffled when discarding Net, what would happen if GOW discarded the Black EC instead, leaving Net in the field of battle but no EC to get shuffled.  Does net's ability have to complete and capture the Hero or is the Hero shuffled?

Thanks!

After the capture is played, it must be interrupted or it happens.

Grapes does not have an interrupt printed on the special ability, so it only does what it says: discard this to shuffle those.

Grapes can still be played, and it can still potentially cause a new battle, but it cannot save your Hero.

Say you and I are playing, and you win a rescue attempt.  I then play SoG on a shuffler lost soul and all other lost souls (not in sites) are now shuffled, leaving none for you to rescue!
