Akiros Favor VS Temple of the Dawnbreaker
« on: July 23, 2014, 10:03:20 AM »
Can somebody explain me how these 2 works together?

I believe there could be a difference on wether akiros is revealed or not depending on what the ruling is.

These two cards have completely different functions. Akiro's Favor lets you reroll when attacking, whereas Temple of the Dawnbreaker lets you reroll when defending or escaping. Combine the two, and you just have both effects - I don't think the two cards interact with each other at all.

ACG is right. None of the effect interact with each others. One is when you attack, the other is when you defend.

Erhhh.

The priestess has the temple.

The warlord has akiros favor.

The warlord attacks the priestess. And rolls really good or really bad. Who decides first if there should be a reroll?

Like everytime both players want to do something at sametime.... Initiative.

And just to add, because you talked about Akiro revealed or not, that once in the rolling dice step, you can't reveal it. You can only reveal inbetween steps.

Akiro can use its effect outside of the roll dice step.
Why? because if Akiro is face down, then you can reveal it between the roll dice step and apply damage step and actually use it straight away.

Can temple be used outside of the roll dice step?


I have a feeling that it's not as simple as you suggest.

Ooo, interesting. Indeed with the wording of both spells, you could reroll the attack dice outside the rolling dice step. Only the Defense/Escape part of the temple require to do it right after you rolled.

So player with initiative decides the order that players have the opportunity to reroll, and once you pass the opportunity then you don't get a new one?

Let's say warlord has initiative and rolled crappy. He decides priestess chooses first and she is course doesn't reroll. Warlord now rerolls and rolls high. Priestess can not use temple, its too late, correct?

No. If warlord has initiative, he decide if he want to reroll. Then priestesse decide if she want to.

Any argument for:
temple must reroll during the dice roll step, while akiro can do it until damage has been applied?

The way they are worded, both spell effect for attack roll can be rerolled between Roll Dice and Apply Damage steps.

I would need to review the card wording

I understand if it's decided by initiative, but I don't think that's always enough. What if my opponent rolls 5 damage, i reroll with the dawnbreaker and it goes to 3, then they decide they want to reveal akiro's favor and have the attack rerolled a second time?

[mwcard=MWSTX2FFE02]Akiro's Favor[/mwcard] [mwcard=MW1J09]Temple of the Dawnbreaker[/mwcard]

Neither spell specifies a step during which to roll. 

My initial claim during that game may have been wrong.   If Akiro's favor can reroll during the Damages and Effects step then he could have activated it and used it in your particular case Vulcan.

However if it already had been revealed whoever had the initiative could have chose whether or not to reroll first. and if it's not limited to the roll dice step then the person with the initiative would get to decide first whether they want to act in either step.
