Set 26 "Inherit" Mechanic Discussion

[spgoel]

that effect is so awesome! it could be really useful

[poltoid]

it would make a lot of sense if instead the card would get attached to the target in case of inheret, to ne able to easily check the effect, but it should be considered as an attached card

also, you should only be able to inheret one ninja at a time, or else a ninja coild have like over 10 diferent effects..

lol, it also appears like you can infinitely stack Inherit and give one ninja 1, 2, 3, + other effect texts LOL...

My first thought was this exactly. If the right Inherit Ninjas come along, that Deidara could become a beast (well, more of a beast then it already is anyways)
Love the mechanic. Unique, fun, creative, and a world of possibilities. Little disappointed about the only being discarded thing, but on the other hand might get out of control if it was just "removed from play" and would be almost useless if "Removed from game"
8/10 (score might get better depending on what inherit ninjas we see. That Sasuke is cool, but like it was said above a 5/0 on T0 is hard to beat)

That sasuke seems rather understatted for a turn 2, pretty disappointing. The mechanic did not disappoint though, can't way to see what other ninja effects we'll get to take advantage of.

[maseky]

a question does this works if the nnja with inherit is discarded from the hand aslo or only the field.

[sortofjosh]

Field only. Out of play cards are referred specifically to as "ninja cards." In play cards are just "ninja."

Since "Inherit" states "Ninja", Sasuke must be discarded while in play to give away his effect via "Inherit".

I thought this at first as well, but I'm gonna wait until Andy or Tylar confirms or denies this as fact or fiction, since wordings and assumptions have happened before and we've interpreted it incorrectly compared to how they intended the card to be designed. In other words, just because it makes sense it would work that way doesn't mean they will let it.

Tylar, Andy? Any word on this?

[Onearmdeejay]

(Unless I’m missing something) Does this “Inherit” effect replaces the target Ninja’s existing text effect or is it ruled as an additional text effect?

this card blows new mech is sweet
