Look it's early, up late very tired not thinking straight.

Let's say I was playing Brotherhood and I activated Savage Land to raise my characters attack even though I was going to lower my defense. In the card faq's on the upperdeck sight under Savage Land is that a character is not stunned when it's defense is Zero........

Does this mean that the character can not be stunned at all as long as it has a zero defense or are they simply saying that a character does not automatically become stunned just because the cards defense is Zero?

Just thought that is was an interesting question?



Also, when a card is stunned, you still control the card but the card loses its' flavor text as well as its' team affiliation right.

It simply means they are not automatically stunned, because DEF does not equal hit points or anything (unlike Magic, where a creature is killed when they have 0 toughness).

I'd assume they lose flavor text, but there's no game mechanic that currently references flavor text. If you were making your own card that does, then I would say they have no flavor text.

A stunned character DOES NOT lose their team affiliations (Note that a character like Luke Cage-6 would, since it is part of his text box)

So if my opponent had a stunned xmen character and a nonstunned FF character he could in essence still team them up even though one is stunned?

Yes, he could.

I don't get that. I understand that he controls the character but how does it retain the team affiliation. I mean then all of his characters could be stunned but he could still team them up. That just doesn't seem right.

Though you might not have thought of it from the perspective of teaming up different affiliations, I'm pretty sure you already knew that characters retained their affiliations.

Children of the Atom targets a stunned X-Men character, as Lazarus Pit does for a stunned League of Assassins character. These cards make sense exactly because characters retain their team affiliations when stunned; this twist on the rule might be new for you, but the rule itself probably isn't.

Right right...After I posted I thought about the exact two cards that you mentioned....And I guess if they lost their team stamp then those cards would be worthless......
