⚠ This ruling is from an older rules version (Hall of Heroes (rules 1.0–1.4)) and might be outdated.

Question

In a previous ruling, you said that resolving the “Special” ability on weather supports is considered to be performed by Storm’s identity, in the sense that Storm would “remove 2 threat” via Hurricane or “deal 2 damage” via Thunderstorm. > > Why is this the case? Generally speaking, triggered abilities that resolve from supports in play under a player’s control are not considered to be performed by that player’s identity. > > If an ability on your ID, or on a card that is an ID extension, explicitly tells you to resolve another ability, is that instance of that other ability considered to be performed by your ID?

Answer

I made an error on the previous ruling. Triggered abilities on Support cards—including on cards in Storm’s Weather Deck—should not be considered performed by the hero’s identity. This is the rule as written and should remain consistent.
