Title: First Strike
Post by: Ammian on November 11, 2010, 12:59:43 PM
Maybe there's something in the REG I missed...

If you gain first strike through, say, Godspeed, and then your opponent gains first strike through, say, Ferocious attack, what does that mean?  Do the first strikes just cancel each other out?  In that case, aren't those cards being indirectly negated?  I'm confused ...what happens?

Wondering yet again,
Ammian

Blessings and peace,

I thought it was the first First Strike to enter battle is the one that works.

I also think that I remember it this way.  (Unless you're using that one "first strike" card that says to negate all other first strikes, or regardless of other first strikes, or something like that).

Godspeed and Ferocious Attack is not that one poorly worded card...

This is why we need a second strike ability.

Nah, I think we need a preemptive strike.  And instead of banding, we could have a coalition of the willing :)
