Your Rules for Saturday, November 27, 2004
Reactions on destroyed, bowed cards
Question: if a card has a Reaction which is triggered "after" it is destroyed [examples: Hero's Banner, Toturi Kurako], and the card is bowed when it is destroyed, can the Reaction be used?
Cards that are not in play are neither bowed nor unbowed. Ergo, cards with an "after this card is destroyed" Reaction won't normally be bowed when you would take their Reaction.
Suboto and Slaughter the Scout
Is Slaughter a legal play in responce to Suboto's Action? (or, is his action movement?)
Entering play at a Battle is not the same thing as Moving into a Battle.
Entering play at a Battle does not trigger Slaughter the Scout.
That should cover everything for Saturday. If I missed your question, please repost it with the flag [RULES] as part of a Clear and Distinct subject line. I'll get back to you at the first opportunity.
