Question

Against Ebony Maw, stage II is revealed and it reads “When Revealed: Each player discards cards from the top of the encounter deck until they discard a Spell card and puts that card into play in their play area.” First player discards the entire deck and doesn’t find a Spell. Should the following players also discard the new deck until they find a Spell (and if there’s none in the deck, this could possibly add 4 acceleration tokens on the main scheme)? Or is the effect considered to be fully resolved?

Answer

When resolving Ebony Maw II’s “When Revealed” ability, each player will need to discard cards from the encounter deck. If a player resolving the ability empties the encounter deck, the effect is considered fulfilled for only them, and the next player in the turn order will have to discard from the newly shuffled encounter deck.
