- Spike can break Wraparound (without Wraparound getting +7 strength until after its subroutine is broken). [4]:Ruling
History
- April 3, 2015: Officially released[5]
Sources
- ↑ Paid abilities with trashing as part of the cost
- ↑ Clarifications for Sneakdoor Beta
- ↑ A triggered ability remains active until resolved
- ↑ Abilities Explanation Ruling, Question 7Another conclusion I have come to based on previous rulings is that abilities can create "floating" abilities. Is this true? If so, where do these abilities live and how are they governed? Some examples include:
- Paid abilities with trashing as the cost still resolve even though the card is no longer active[1]
- Sneakdoor Beta's ability still resolves even if it gets trashed during the course of the run on Archives[2]
- Joshua B. still gives you a tag even if you sell him to Aesop's Pawnshop[3]
- Any subroutine (required conditional abilities) that creates constant effects (such as Chum's +2 strength for the next ice)
Once triggered, abilities exist independently of the source. So when you trash a card as a cost, the ability still resolves based on the game state that existed when the card was trashed.
