SHADOW KING

Keeping the (very flawed) wording of Snap cards in mind:

Will Shadow King even work on Lanes that are buffed by Aura cards such as Patriot or Cap. America?
Rationally I would say no - you cant negate an Ongoing buff without negating the Ongoing effect itself. But thet state of Snaps flawed wording and ruling tells me otherwise and I can imagine  it will really debuff entire lanes regardless of any Ongoing effect that is still working?

Anyone?

  • If his effect works the same as Valkyrie's, it would be the way you say - he changes the base Power of the card, and then the Ongoing buff is applied on top of that. For example: Morbius has an Ongoing buff and thus would be unaffected by Shadow King, while The Collector gains Power each time his requirement is met, and thus would be reset to 1 Power by Shadow King.

    • Thanks fpr the feedback. But in that case he becomes very niche?
      I can imagine him as a tech against Angela or Bishop but otherwise he will rarely make a difference at least in my decks.
      Debuffung entire lanes regardless of Aura etc. would be very powerfull though.

  • He is a meta dependent tech card that will be necessary if certain cards becomes meta or if a stat-buffing location will be featured or hot. He will by no means be a stable in meta decks.
