Question

First Situation. I turned the Blob minion into an ally with the karma ally ability and I later revealed the immovable treachery.. 1.”Activate” is only for enemies, meaning my blob ally would not try to attack or scheme against me, correct? 2.And unrelated, do minions that get turned into allies, lose their sch basic power? Second situation I’m playing the cyclops hero and I reveal the lost visor obligation. 3.Will it search for it under cards like the stolen memories obligation in my play area? 4.if not, will it constantly be checking where it’s located and grab it once stolen memories is discarded? 5. If I do the Alter-Ego action on it, will it add the visor to my hand from the collection in the infiltrate the museum scenario?

Answer

  • Not quite. If Karma makes the Blob minion into a Controlled ally, and then Immovable is revealed, Blob would still activate against the player who drew Immovable. Blob should then be treated as a standard minion for the duration of the activation, though he should also take consequential damage if he makes an attack, per the wording on Karma’s ability.
  • No, minion-allies are not considered to lose their SCH; they just won’t use it in most cases.
  • No, Lost Visor wouldn’t search for Ruby Quartz Visor in places that aren’t listed on the card. That said, we think that the Alter-Ego Action should be able to retrieve RQV from wherever it is, including if it’s underneath Stolen Memories or in The Collection.
