There viewtopic.php?t=57528 it is said that Horiuchi Rikako's straightening ability is conditional, "it may straighten the card or it may not", therefore it can't be used while Rikako is bowed since it won't unconditionnaly straighten her.
What about Ik'chda please ? Can he straigthen himself while he is bowed, using his own ability and targeting himself ? If yes, does the difference with Rikako's ability come from its initial targeting requirement ? If not, is this ability considered conditional because it could target any other Stained Paw Tribe card (such as a fellow Mak'irtch) and thus it would not straighten Ik'chda ?
Thanks.
