Title: Foreign Wives
Post by: lduvall on April 23, 2015, 09:03:54 PM

My opponent is defending with Foreign Wives... I've drawn 3 cards to start my turn... 2 of which were Lost Souls, which I then drew 2 additional cards to replace. So the question is... have I drawn the 5 cards mentioned in Foreign Wives special ability? 

Thanks,

Lance

Nope, Lost Souls don't count as "cards drawn" for effects like this (since they are just replaced).  These kind of card effects count the number of non-soul cards drawn.

You've only drawn 3 cards. I forget if the Lost Souls themselves don't count as being drawn (since you draw another card to "replace" them) or if the replacement cards are not considered drawn, but getting a Lost Soul definitely doesn't increase the number of cards you've drawn for cards that count that (like Wives).
