Question

51 – If you defeat stage one of a villain, stage two is then revealed. Villain cards are defined as Encounter cards, so you are “revealing” an encounter card when you reveal stage two of the villain. How would revealing stage two of a villain interact with Deadpool’s Metaknowledge card? Villain cards can’t be discarded, but can their “When revealed” effect be canceled with this card?

Answer

Though villain cards are a type of encounter card, they cannot have their “When Revealed” effects canceled. (Same for main scheme cards.) We will plan to add that to a future rules reference.
