Question

If a minion with The villainous keyword flips over a boost card during its activation and it’s “hydra exo-soldier” Would you give the villain “another” boost card it didn’t have? Would it change if the villain already had a boost card some how? Does the boos card know it’s attached to a minion? If it didn’t say “another”, would it change anything?

Answer

  • If a Villainous minion flipped Hydra Exo-Soldier as its boost card, you would: Give the villain a tough card, always, assuming it’s not already tough. Check if the villain has a boost card already. If it does, give it another. If it doesn’t, don’t give it any.
  • Give the villain a tough card, always, assuming it’s not already tough.
  • Check if the villain has a boost card already. If it does, give it another. If it doesn’t, don’t give it any.
  • The “another” in Hydra Exo-Soldier’s boost effect should be thought of as “additional”, and only applies if there’s already a boost card on the villain.
