[quote=“jakodrako, post:59, topic:5491”] Which subtypes are valid for Panchatantra to give to ice? Does the Runner have to choose a subtype on a rezzed piece of ice?
Any subtype is valid. Subtypes are not specific to a particular card type, and you don’t have to choose one from rezzed cards.[/quote]
How does the Maya ruling work (being able to put to the bottom after it’s been stolen/trashed)? It’s changed game state at this point and Maya cannot reference the card, right? If this works, shouldn’t the Test Run/Scavenge combo not work?
What we’re seeing here is a completely new trigger timing related to accessing. Maya triggers after the access is complete, then referencing the card that was accessed, regardless of its current state.
It’s sort of like the difference between Midseasons and Punitive in the case of an agenda that has been forfeited. The game knows that an agenda was stolen the previous turn, so Midseason can reference that fact from the game log, but that agenda is no longer in the score area, so Punitive can’t reference the point value it has.
get made An Offer You Can’t Refuse at six points into a server that will kill you;
encounter News Hound on the outside;
Panchatantra it into a current;
survive!
Why? News Hound reads “if a current is active…” I don’t see how an ice with the current subtype is the same as an active current. If it said “if a current is in play,” that would be clear.
News Hound is active while it’s rezzed. Even though “active” involve different mechanics for current operations and current ice, the state of being active is the same.
