- This ruling did not reveal any new rules, so it has been classified as Official.
As per the rules for hosting, when a host is trashed, all hosted items are also trashed, which cannot be prevented. Sacrificial Construct cannot break this rule to prevent a Caïssa from being trashed with its host ice.
Question[]
Can a Sacrificial Construct save a Caïssa program from being trashed when its host ice is being trashed?
I would assume no - but some folks are claiming golden rule protection that the wording of Sacrificial Construct (prevent trashing) conflicts with the ruling in the rulebook / FAQ (cannot be prevented), and thus per the Golden Rule the Sacrificial Construct wins.

The trashing cannot be prevented per the rules for hosting. The Golden Rule only applies when there is a direct contradiction between a card and the rules. |
