j840

[spiritomb]

I believe I know the answer. I'm just looking for the why.

Deflection says the "users team can not be affected by…".

Does that mean that deflection stops jutsus like or any card that references the team? Or does it stop jutsus like that targets a specific ninja?

I will phrase this another way just in case.

If i play j840 can someone target each ninjas individually?

j840 does not stop a Jutsu from targeting.
j840 would stop Jutsus that affect a team and Jutsus that affect a single Ninja.

j840 does not prevent Jutsus from targeting Ninjas. So the answer to the above question is yes.

Yes they can target them individually, as there is nothing blocking you from naming something as a target, provided that you meet the targeting parameters exactly. This is because deflection is not specifically saying that you cannot target them, there for making them an illegal target, but that they "cannot be affected", meaning that when it comes time to apply the effect of a jutsu card that has targeted the target, that target cannot be affected by that jutsu, affected using "aff" instead of "eff", meaning (at least in a lay sense), "from an outside source".

Now, why can't they be affected by something that targets them individually? For this we need to find the definition of "team". There's no "I" in team, that's for sure, however each member of a team is considered to be a part of that team, meaning that this effect applies to every member of the "user's Team", as stated on this card.

That is why it makes Ninjas in the "user's Team" unable to be "affected" by outside "Jutsu card" effect text sources.

Thank you Tylar. That is what I was looking for.
