Title: Protected from protect?
Post by: TheKarazyvicePresidentRR on August 22, 2010, 08:20:17 PM: Ra Thaddeus (protect all cards from ecs of X or less)with 6 disciples out. King Zimri blocks and plays Bel banquet (d/c all ecs to protect ls). Can the lost souls be protected? Or did Thaddeus protect them from protection?

Zimri can't discard ANY EC's (Via Bel banquet) because they are also protected by Thaddeus... Has not been discussed before. :P
>>Of course, I'm sure the argument with mine will be that Bel banquet is NOT an EC, therefore it DOES work, but i will fight it anyway.<<

This is correct. Not only can LS's be protected from protection, but EC's are also protected from themselves by Thaddeus. So Zimri couldn't discard himself anyway.
