Title: Hsr and Harvest time.
Post by: Kyp Henderson on July 10, 2009, 09:29:08 PM

Does HSr stop Harvest time?  Just because Ht is a dominant that doesn't mean it can ignore the rules.  Because I am pretty sure that you can play AotL on a Syrian while house of Rimmon is in play. Any input is appreciated.



HezekiahsSignetRing   Hezekiah's Signet Ring   -   2 Kings 16:20   -   A   No opponent may search any draw pile or discard pile.   N

Harvest Time Promo.jpg   Harvest Time   -   John 4:35   Multi   L   If your opponent has no Lost Soul in play, search their draw pile for a Lost Soul and put it into their territory. Shuffle that draw pile.   N

if hsr is a prevent, then it cannot stop ht (because dominants cannot be negated). if it is a protect, it will stop ht.

HSR is a prevent. Here is the "Play As" from the REG:

Play As: Opponents are prevented from searching any draw pile or discard pile.

Harvest Time cannot be prevented so it still works.

House of Rimmon is a protect, so AotL cannot target any of the protected evil characters.

Be ready for a surprise.

House of Rimmon stops AotL... ONLY if the syrian is in your territory and Elisha is not out.

Protect beats Cannot Be Negated.
Cannot Be Negated beats Negate.
Negate beats Protect.

It's sorta like Rock Paper Scissors with those three.

Why can Ht cannot be prevented?

All dominant cards cannot be negated.

Then if a search card like Search cannot be negated then does HSR stop it?

The Signet Ring cannot prevent cards that can't be prevented (and can't be negated cards can't be negated), so the FooF "Search" cannot be prevented by the Ring.
