Question

Can you answer some questions in regards to the soon-to-be-released Rogue hero? 1. Since it was ruled that Rogue can play Quick Shift to be declared the defender, can Rogue also play Wasp Sting even though she has no Tiny/Giant form? Maybe to remove a stun? 2. Can Rogue resolve the abilities of other heroes’ cards if prompted by a card she plays? Can she trigger Spider Camouflage after playing Swing In or one of Storm’s weather supports after the matching event is played? 3. Can Rogue play Parental Guidance to put a card like Bulletproof Belle under George Stacy, that the Ghost Spider player can then play normally? 4. Can Rogue play Superdense Strike if Vision is in Dense mass form? 5. What happens when Rogue plays Pulsar Shield? Is it unplayable because its triggering condition means another player is already defending? 6. Can Rogue declare the Valkyrie player the defender of an attack by playing Shieldmaiden herself?

Erratum

We would be happy to comment on Rogue shenanigans. If Rogue were to play…

  • … Wasp Sting · MarvelCDB, she could only use it to discard Stunned, since she can’t resolve any ability text relating to Giant or Tiny forms.
  • … Swing In · MarvelCDB, she’d remove 4 threat and resolve as much of “Spider Camouflage” as possible—based on how it’s written, Spider-Man would get a Tough status card, and Rogue would choose an enemy to Confuse.
  • … Parental Guidance · MarvelCDB, Rogue (in Alter-Ego) could attach an event to George Stacy if he’s in play. Ghost-Spider could then play that event.
  • … Superdense Strike · MarvelCDB, Rogue could deal 5 damage w/piercing assuming Vision was in Dense mass form at the time.
  • … Pulsar Shield · MarvelCDB, she couldn’t play it at all, because Spectrum would have to already be defending, and Rogue can’t play a Defense event during that time.
  • … Shieldmaiden · MarvelCDB, we were actually planning to errata it and give it a Defense trait. In that regard it would be just like Pulsar Shield, where Rogue couldn’t play it at all.
