Cunning clarification.....

[LordFajubi 1,308]

Cunning is kind of OP, it serves 2 purposes at once. It can be cheap upgrade removal AND control. It makes sense how it works but a 2 resource cost for this card is way too low. For what it does it should be 4 or 5 or be limited on what it works on like upgrades only. This card is silly open ended and cheap.

I just would hate to witness some terrible interactions being possible as more cards become available. Difficult to see, always emotion is the future.

There are two interesting cases while using Cunning on Poe Dameron's ability and then discarding:

BB-8 - the effect would be "Reroll ... one of your other dice" as explained above.

Sith Holocron - the effect would be taking Holorcon from your discard pile to your hand, discarding a blue ability and rolling its die into pool (if paid).

 

That interaction with Cunning, Poe Dameron and Sith Holocron is wonky has it been answered and that's how it works?

It pretty much uses 2 cards to replicate Ace In The Hole anyway. And you don't need Cunning for that interaction. You just need to roll Poe's Special. At face value, it works that way. A ruling/errata dictating that Holocron can't work from your discard this way wouldn't surprise me.

Edit - You need Cunning in a villain deck and Poe on the other side of the table for Holocron and Poe to interact... Duh. Lol.

No, I don't have the answer from Lucas if that's what you mean. Feel free to disagree.

Seems pretty straightforward to me. Where's the confusion?

I didn't say it was confusing, I said it was wonky.

So I'm light years behind you all on this but have a question just the same: Does cunning only work on cards that have dice in the pool? OR any card that is on the table (in play not discard pile) even if it's exhausted and dice has returned?

[Hawkman2000 352]

^^^ Card in play. Doesn't have to be a card with dice in the pool, just a card on the table.

Oh holy crape, FFG is about one more stupid ruling away from loosing money. The biggest being being, "Zero is an acceptable choice!"

 

Someone is just Butt hurt because they got their Thermal Det, hit by Cunning. (Happened to me, it is not a fun experience)

Are you able to Cunning your own cards? It is not clear if it has to be your opponents. Just says as if it was your card, such as I want to target my own IG-88 to use his ability. Does this work?
