How does Hida Amoro experienced 2 work with being face down. His trait gives him a +2 gold cost, then shuffles him back into the dynasty deck; but now, becoming face down would basically erase all memory of being given the extra gold cost. Am I right in believing that he will cost his base cost due to becoming face down? Or am I completely wrong?
Hida Amoro Exp2 and Face down
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.

Currently, yes, he would fail to increase his own cost due to the Tracking Rule.
This is obviously not how the card SHOULD work, but my personal efforts to correct the problem have been sidetracked of late. Sorting out Rules issues for the current format take precedence.
However, I have not forgotten the Legacy format entirely, and a fix may yet be forthcoming.
