What do you guys think about rapid response and nick fury? would it work or not, I'm thinking not because rapid response says "when defeated" and nick fury says discard.

Edit: I just realized let the villain kill him.

This was discussed on stream a little bit when they first teased Rapid Response. If you defend with Fury, as one tends to do, and he's defeated, you may trigger Rapid Response. He returns to play with a damage, his "when he enters play" ability triggers again, allowing you to draw three more cards (or thwart or attack a little if you need), and he's ready again if you need another block!

He still gets discarded at the end of the villain phase if he survives, but the extra three cards can certainly be worth triggering RR on him, not to mention the extra block (especially useful in multiplayer or against Rhino who has plenty of extra attack treacheries).

You can trigger his ability when you bring him back with Rapid Response, because its trigger is "after Nick Fury enters play". You couldn't do that if it said "after Nick Fury is played" or "after you play Nick Fury", because "play" and "put into play" aren't at all the same thing, but both cause a card to "enter play".
