Lets say I am playing Lion with a Crab splash.

I use my Lion's Pride Brawler to bow my opponent's character.

I then sacrifice my LPB to a Stoic Gunso

Then, I use Spiritcaller to bring back that LPB from my discard.

Am I able to use the LPB's ability again?

Rules Reference page 10 bullet 2

If a card leaves play and re-enters play during the same period, it is considered a new instance of the card and there is no memory of having used the ability during the specified period. (This rule also applies to any ability with no specified limit.)

Thank you. I swear I read that at some point but just couldn't seem to find it again.

Thanks for clarifying. I thought I had read somewhere an instance of this being the opposite case. Now I have to see if I can remember why I thought the game tried to remember.

Could you be thinking of the rule that says if you try to play an event with a limit, and the event gets cancelled by an interrupt, it still counts against the limit of how many times you can play that event per round/phase/conflict?

Same thing works with Rebuild and various holdings, as well as Guidance of the ancestors.

The basic idea is that the ability gets reset when it goes from In Play to out of play. So with rebuild/Storehouse, you can sac, draw a card, then rebuild, and do it again since it went from Province->discard. However with guidance vs Kisada, if your first action is to trigger Guidance, it is already spent that you can't do it again until next turn (or you cycle it somehow with non-existing cards currently).

No, it's the reverse: the limit is reset when the card leaves play.

Yep, I was mis-remembering an email.
