So I asked a question before regarding Display of Power and Shiba Tsukune, and here I find myself again.

So both of these cards state to resolve the effects of a ring as though you are the attacking player.

However, the Ring of Earth affects not only the attacking player (draw a card), but also the defending player (discard a card at random).

In these instances, is your opponent assumed to be the defending player? In the case of Ring of Earth, do you draw a card and then discard a card at random (as you ARE the defending player)? If one player is the attacking player, is the other automatically assumed to be the defending player? Do you just draw card and your opponent does nothing?

By logic If one is the attacker, the other one has to be the defender, so...

Ring of Earth never actually uses the word "defender", so it's a non issue.

Earth: The attacking player draws 1 card from his or her conflict deck and discards 1 card at random from his or her opponent’s hand.

^This, case closed.

Note though that in AGOT the card Vengeance for Elia can make the same player be both the attacker and the defender, for a split second.

Well, there you go. Pays me to not read deeper!

Thanks everyone!
