Hello.

I hope my "pun-ful" title attracted you here. Anyways, I have a question for the "rules maesters" about the lovely event from Martell, Burning on the Sand… here it is:

If the opponent declares a challenge with any number of characters, I kneel a vengeful character to oppose it, I have fewer strength than the opponent and would normally lose the challenge, AND i play Burning on the Sand to cancel the determination of the challenge winner, am I still considered the "loser?" Therefore, if I am considered to lose the challenge, will my vengeful character stand (if I choose to stand it)?

Thanks a bunch!

I have to believe that if "no one wins the challenge" then no one loses it either. And if you don't lose it, you can't trigger vengeful.

Correct;

Vengeful only triggers "After you lose a challenge as the defender", and you never lost that challenge - you cancelled the determination of the winner.

Thanks for the prompt answer
