If I make a rescue attempt with a hero and I have you will remain active. My opponent plays Christian martyr killing my hero can he immediately play destruction of Destruction of Nehushtan in order to discard you will remain?
Is you will remain a trigger ability?
I thought that he would have to play Destruction of Nehushtan first and then play Christian martyr. But I may be wrong about that.
Destruction of Nehushtan
Discard one active artifact in play. Artifacts ability is negated.
You will remain
If opponent uses a evil "end the battle" ability this turn, you may begin a new battle. If an opponent removes your last hero from Battle, you may remove this card from the game to add your hero to battle
-
YWR is a triggered ability, so you would have the opportunity to use it before they could play DoN. Slightly different scenario, but if it was Unknown Nation, which is not triggered, they could play AotL then DoN.
-
How is unknown Nation not a trigger but you will remain is a trigger? They both say May.
Unknown Nation
If opponents hero is in battle you may discard this card to search draw pile for a human evil character and add it to battle
-
The may does not make it a trigger - it has to do with the condition it's looking for.
"If opponent's hero is in battle" is looking at a game state, not an event, so it's not a triggered ability - it's an activated ability. "If opponent's Hero enters battle" would be looking for an event and would be triggered.
-
Okay I get it thanks for your help.
-
So same question but a little different Hidden Treasures, is it an ongoing ability or trigger? Can I play the three woes to negate hidden treasure after the hero enters battle but before he gets to play an enhancement or search my deck off of hidden treasure?
Hidden Treasures
Once per turn, if your loan green Brigade Prophet begins a battle, you may play an enhancement or discard an evil enhancement in an opponent's deck.
-
Since HT activates as soon as the green prophet enters battle, they would have had to negate it when it was activated and before the Hero enters battle.
