Question

8 – Hi, I had “I am inevitable” come up as a boost card, and I was wondering if I could use Preemptive Strike against the Infinity Stone’s boost icons. It says I “apply its boost icons as if it were a boost card”, and I know that other rulings have made “as if it were from hand” act very much like it came from your hand. But I don’t know if in this case the infinity stone is considered a boost card when I turn it face up to be able to trigger preemptive strike, or even something like Defiance. Thanks!
