Expansion card questions: Do cards like “make the call” and “across the spider-verse” allow you to ignore the requirement keyword cost…
Question
1.Do cards like “make the call” and “across the spider-verse” allow you to ignore the requirement keyword cost of an ally because your putting into play vs playing it? 2.Can you use “clarity of purpose” attached to the hero “Spider-ham” with 0 toon counters on him and then trigger his response and use that same toon counter along with that wild resource previously generated by clarity of purpose all at the same time for paying for a two cost card for example.
Answer
- Make the Call would allow you to ignore the Requirement keyword on an ally, because you are instructed to “pay the printed cost” to “put the character into play”, which is distinct from paying its cost and playing it from your hand. Across the Spider-Verse is similar in that you could ignore the Requirement keyword with it as well.
- Across the Spider-Verse is similar in that you could ignore the Requirement keyword with it as well.
- No, that interaction wouldn’t work. Resources paid for a cost are paid simultaneously, and responses to effects generating resources happen after that cost has been fully paid. Therefore, Spider-Nonsense will not resolve until after the full cost of the card has been paid, and won’t be available for use in paying that cost.
