pikaro13 0 Posted January 11, 2013 Not sure I understand it's action right. When use it who discards cards from the deck. Player who uses the action or his opponent? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
qkershner 2 Posted January 20, 2013 Blackmoor Estate reads Action: Exhaust and pay X to discard the top X cards of a player's deck. Since the ORD defines targetting as "The word target is used to indicate that an effect is directing a player to choose 1 or more cards for an effect to resolve on." I'm going to assume that they chose not to use target, and that you are selecting (not targetting) a player for the effect. However, I'm in agreement that it's written strangely. It should likely say "Choose an opponent", but since CoC is pretty much 'as intended' then my assumption is that it's written so that you can choose any opponent or yourself for the effect.

jhaelen 98 Posted January 21, 2013 The player triggering the Action gets to decide, and yes, she can also choose herself. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dboeren1 294 Posted February 4, 2013 This isn't just some weirdo rules loophole. You often WANT to choose yourself. Yog has a lot of great recursion cards that can make good use out of your discard pile, so why wouldn't you want to load some good stuff in there? So, Blackmoor Estate can be used in a mill deck, or in a deck that has some good disard recursion and wants to set itself up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
