A question about shadows and powers

By pak88, in 2. AGoT Rules Discussion

Hello guys!

I'm new on agot lcg, and I have one little question:

I have The Queen of Thorns on the field:

"Response: after a card comes out of shadows, The Queen of Thorns claims one power"

with an attachment: Body Guard

If my Queen of Thorns returns in the shadows due to the effects of "Sister of truth", the powers and the attachments is lost?

Thank youuu!

Yep -- any time a card leaves play (discard, dead, returned to shadows, returned to hand), attachments and power on it are lost.

But, if you are using Sister of Truth, you can return herself back to Shadows. You do not need to return the Queen of Thorns. If you have the gold... in theory, you could keep popping the Sister into and back out of play every phase to power the Queen. But, that is expensive.

This little trick tends to work the best, in my opinion, out of a Stark City of Shadows deck running Hidden Chambers. But... that's a whole different conversation (and that's not a Tier 1 deck... but man is it a fun one!)

Thanks for the answers!

But, if you are using Sister of Truth, you can return herself back to Shadows. You do not need to return the Queen of Thorns.

Yes, I know, but if I keep my Queen in play, out of shadows, she will be the target of valar... and this is not so good ^^''

We play only Melee and only for fun, so the Queen of Thorns is perfect for our style :)

This is a bad news for my friend, the bara-shadows player xD

Thanks thanks!

1 power each phase is 7 per turn. You can win before a Valar comes, especially if you give the Queen a duplicate or two (or a bodyguard).
