If Kitsune Diro Exp overlays, does he gain both Samurai and Shugenja after the overlay?

What ruleset? In specific edition like Jade? Or in OBH Legacy?
The ex is jade only
Well, hidden emperor technically
He would not
Jade rulebook has this strange definition: "The later version keeps the earlier one's attached cards, tokens,abilities, bowed or unbowed status, and permanent changes. The later version's printed statsand traits override the earlier version's, unless the earlier version's were permanent changes."
"unless the earlier version's were permanent changes"- i don't know what does it mean.
"no effects are triggered by the card entering play"
So he would keep the trait that was initially chosen when you brought the non-experienced version into play
But when you overlay you wouldn't choose a second trait
Wouldn't it be the same either way? Ongoing effects persist, so it will still have the keyword its basic got, then it isn't considered to enter play, so the Exps trait won't trigger?
Gaining the keywords isn't an ongoing effect, so I don't know that is an issue, right?
Yeah, as you said. Should be same under either Ruleset.
It's more going to hit the permanent change category
Yes it is.
That's straight from the honor bound rulebook for support.
You keep the initial choice but don't get a new choice when you overlay.
Permanent changes are ongoing effects.
Aah...
How does that interact with effects like Courtesy?
I would think that's a rules-level change, less than the card
Courtesy didn't exist so no longer a Jade question and it's onto silly nonsense design choices and I'm out lol
Courtesy is a continuous trait on the card which would be overwritten in most cases. Specific example preferred for specific answers. 🙂
I don't think there's an example that prevents ongoing effects, so it's more theory.
Well, happy to help in any case. 🙂 I trust you're satisfied with the Diro help? Villainous and I came down pretty much in full agreement.
Oh, definitely. I'm sorting old cards and they were side by side, and that was my second thought, so I figured to ask
The first thought was, of course, why that boy a furry
I blame the Kitsune clan and their dang overplaying with the Beast Realm
They bring their "love" for animals to a new level in Emperor edition and beyond 😂
Even make it look Honorable
