Maybe this is an obvious question, maybe it's not. If I have I Am Truth active (as an artifact), and I play I Am Love as an enhancement in battle, does I Am Love receive the CBN ability from I Am Truth?
I Am Truth -
Good enhancements with "ignore" in the special ability cannot be negated by evil cards.
I Am Love -
If a human Evil Character (except warrior class) is blocking your Hero, interrupt the battle and search discard pile for a white brigade enhancement with "ignores" in the special ability and play it. Limit once per turn.
As you can see, I Am Love has "ignore" in its special ability... sort of. I'm sure that this isn't quite what Cactus intended I Am Truth to be used for, so I figured I'd ask just to be sure.

I believe, because it is face value until in play, that it is a covenant in the deck, therefore making you unable to search for it...
You may want the opinion of someone more authoritative than myself :)

I think you're understanding my question backwards. I am wanting to find out if I Am Love (when played as an enhancement) is CBN while I am Truth is active (as an artifact).

I would rule, "Yes, I Am Love would receive CBN status in this case."
-
+1 Can't find a reason it shouldn't be so.
-
I also agree. There are some cards that say "cards with an ignore ability," which would not work in this case. But, because of the wording of I am Truth, "ignore" is "in the ability," so CBN is granted.
-
I also agree, and use Scarlet Line to further prove why it should work. If IaT wont grant Scarlet Line CBN because it doesnt have the word Ignore in the ability, but is PLAYED as an ignore, I see no reason IaL shouldn't be CBN.

Another example is the HoH + Trembling Demon combo. I would find it hard to believe that HoH was designed or ever envisioned to make Trembling Demon's SA CBN.
