Question

32 – Assuming, I play against Zola. I reveal Zola’s Mutate as an encounter card, while Zola’s experiments are already in play. What happens, if Zola’s Mutate discards Neurological Implants and the top tech in the discard is also neurological implants? Are both attached to the mutate? Or only one, because the rules for attach say that the legality is checked, when the attachment is about to be attached. If the legality is actually checked in this case, what happens, if a minion with more hit points is in play?

Answer

Yes, both copies of Neurological Implants will attach to Zola’s Mutate. The abilities on Zola’s Mutate and Zola’s Experiments circumvent the “attach to” specification on Neurological Implants, and NI does not check for legality once attached.
