A Game of Cyvasse with Vipers Bannermen

By Nitro Pirate, in 2. AGoT Rules Discussion

Hi all,

There's a bit of background to this question but to keep it simple and direct I'll jump straight in :)

If you use A Game of Cyvasse on the Vipers Bannermen, are the Vipers Bannermen able to respond to reveal two cards and place them into their controllers hand?

Arguements I've heard today are NO because the 'bounce' effect on Cyvasse is after a 'then' as can only be responded to with save effects (FAQ 3.0), and YES because they're reponding to themselves leaving play which they will have an opportunity to do regardless, after Cyvasse has finished resolving.

Thanks in advance :)

The Bannermen leave play. They can use their Response at the appropriate time.

EDIT: Nevermind, ktom was quicker ;)

Cheers guys, makes perfect sense. Thanks :)

I should probably start a new topic for this, BUT, while I'm here.... does Narrow Escape force the player to make a choice between putting cards into play from their Dead OR Discard pile, or is it just worded so that it could be read that way if taken out of context, and in fact puts cards back into play from both the Dead AND discard piles?

~Really? A question that has nothing to do with Cyvasse or VB shouldn't go in this thread? :-P

Narrow Escape doesn't force a choice, it gets back anyone who was killed or discarded from play.
