A topic from AEG's L5R CCG Rules forum, copied for Oracle of the Void from a copy of the forum saved in October 2015, so pages it didn't save are missing. Players' names are left out; the rules officials are named. Rulings are as they stood on these dates; later rulings, the rulebooks and the Rules Archive may differ.
I notice the wording on this card is less specific than previous such cards.
"This personality wins ties in duels".
It does not, however, say "instead of losing". Does this mean that in the event of a tie, the personality takes results from both Winning and Losing the duel?
[Mod edit: Thread title. -ZF]
If two Personalities tie, each of whom has an effect that makes him win tied duels, then both Personalities win the duel.
If an effect makes one Personality win the duel, this makes the other player lose, unless another effect alters that player’s outcome. Likewise, if an effect makes one Personality automatically lose the duel, this makes the other player win, unless another effect alters that player’s outcome.
This is the point at which a Personality “wins” or “loses” a duel.
You can't win and lose a duel. You either win, lose, or tie. If an effect changes you from tie to win, then you win, and the other personality loses (unless they have a similar effect).
