Lord of Morthond - Playing allies

By Dwarf king Bronze beard, in Rules questions & answers

So if i have Lord of Morthond attached to my hero and then i use a very good tale or reinforcements to play allies would i be able to trigger Lord of Morthond's effect to draw 1 card. My quess is no but i have been so wrong so many times before so i want to just make shure that i'm right. Thanks for help for advance!

It would not work because there is a clear distinction between "play" and "put into play". It's the same reason why you can use A Very Good Tale to bypass the one ally a turn restriction in Escape from Dol Guldur.

(1.16) The phrase “put into play” If a card effect uses the phrase “put into play,” it means that the card enters play through a card effect instead of through the normal process of paying resources and playing the card from hand. “Put into play” effects are not considered to be playing the card, and will not trigger any effects that refer to a card being played. “Put into play” will, however, trigger any effects that occur when a card “enters play”.
