Title: Scribe and Proud Pharisee Question
Post by: Chronic Apathy on April 04, 2011, 03:04:25 PM

Opponent makes an RA, I block with Scribe banded to Proud Pharisee. Can I use Scribe's ability to put Balaam's Disobedience on the bottom of my draw pile, then use Proud Pharisee's ability to draw and play it? (Assuming of course, that I'm either decked out or very close.)

Also providing you have another Pharisee out, since Scribes are not actually Pharisees. In addition, I believe only the Proud Pharisee would be immune, but I'm not sure what Balaam's Disobedience says...

The only one immune is the one you play it on. That can be either Scribe or PP.

Correct. You choose which character in battle (that is eligible to play BD) gets the immunity.

That's the only thing stopping it from being the #1 most broken combo of all time.
