2 QUESTIONS:

The CoW card "You will Remain" says: "If an opponent removes your last hero from battle, you may remove this from game to add your hero [back] to battle."

What if I have two heroes banded together (being removed), does that mean that I can bring them BOTH back into the battle?

And, WHY ON EARTH would anyone do this? If your hero(s) are losing the battle, why bring them back against the same EC(s) to lose again in rapid succession? (Unless those EC's are now gone, but I don't think they are gone, because the card does not say that).

Thanks

Why are you adding words to the ability?

I am trying to understand how to use the card, please correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks

It says add your Hero to battle it doesn't say add your hero back to battle. Basically it lets you make a second rescue attempt even if you lost the battle. Really helpful and useful expecially since your opponent doesn't get to bring another evil character out they have to use the same one.

So, am I getting this right -- where it says "add your Hero to battle" - the "your Hero" can refer to ANY HERO (that I control)?

That wording is very confusing, because the word "your" seems to indicate that it has to be the SAME HERO that just got removed.

Thank you.

Eric, let me give you an example.  You rescue with hero A.  The battle wages and hero A loses the battle either by losing by the numbers or by a special ability.  You now have a chance to add A HERO that you control (hand or territory) to the battle once hero A is removed from the battle.  I understand that the "your hero" can be confusing, but if it was referring to hero A then it would say "add THAT hero to battle".  Remember that hero A has already been removed from play by the time you can use You Will Remain, so the new hero must be another one you control.

It's an extremely useful card. I've used in in several occasions and had it in my deck in the last tourney we played. It's definitely good when you know your opponent may only have Christian Martyr in his hand, and/or when you're about to rescue your fifth soul. It's an almost guarantee that you'll be able to keep the battle going and win it, this winning the game.

I think yes if they use an end the battle you don't have to discard you will remain seeing that there's not a whole lot of end the battle cards being used you probably won't get too many uses out of it though.
