Return Captain America's Shield to its owner's hand -> Exhaust equipped character. Target player exhausts a ready character he controls. Use only during the combat phase.

Can I return Cap's Shield to my hand during the build phase? I believe that I can, just wanted to run it by you guys.

I had this in another but brought it over here to have HC check it out.

To clarify: He's asking if he can pay the cost in the build phase, just to get the Shield back to his hand, and then have the effect fizzle because it was done in the wrong phase.

Thanks for the clarification Hoops!!

No, you cannot pay the cost during a different phase. You can only pay the cost for it during the combat phase.

Nope. Can't play the effect, can't play the cost.

Thanks Guys, I guesss I was hoping that if they KO it during the build i could return it to my hands.

Me Sad.
