Title: Intricate CtB Combo
Post by: BubbleBoy on August 05, 2009, 12:15:55 PM: Activate Hidden Treasures (http://redemptionreg.com/REG/hiddentreasures.htm) and make a rescue attempt with a lone Green Prophet to play Sword of the Lord (http://redemptionreg.com/REG/swordofthelord.htm). In the side battle, choose to control Nebuchadnezzar* to search your deck for a crimson O.T. EC and add it to the original battle.

This works, right? Nebuchadnezzar doesn't say to add the searched card to the current battle.

*36. CARD NAME: Nebuchadnezzar [Prophets]
CARD TYPE: evil character
CLASS: warrior
IDENTIFIERS: Babylonian King, Fought Earthly Battle
STATS: 6/8
BRIGADE COLOR: Crimson
SPECIAL ABILITY: If no Daniel Hero is in play, search deck for an O.T. crimson card and add it to hand or battle. Cannot be negated.
SCRIPTURE: same as prophets

Post by: Korunks on August 06, 2009, 12:34:23 PM: Yeah but since you were making the rescue attempt, if your nebby pulled an OT EC and it went to the original battle, wouldn't go to your "good" side?

Nope, it would be a blocking EC. But thats only if neb could put the EC in a different battle, he can only add to the one he's in.
