Expansion card questions: I can’t find anywhere in the sinister motives rules about the sinister six scenario in regards to “player”…

Question

I can’t find anywhere in the sinister motives rules about the sinister six scenario in regards to “player” cards that refer to “the villain”. I’ve seen it ruled that overkill targets the “active” villain, but can we choose the villain with player cards?

Answer

Yes; if you play a card or trigger an ability that refers to “the villain”, you choose which villain in play the ability refers to. (Note, constant effects and keywords on a player card that refer to “the villain” always refer to the active villain.)
