I know that the controller of a minion card is, by default, the controller of the minion that it is on (while the controller of a master card is, by default, the person that played it). Does this extend to cards that are not played on minions? That is, is the controller, by default, the controller of the card that it is on? Specifically, say I play a Salt of Thoth on a Powerbase: Montreal that I control. Later, a minion attempts to steal the Powerbase, and I decide to let him, because I feel he needs the pool. On my turn, if I take an action to steal the Powerbase back, does the controller of the Powerbase have the option of burning the Salt of Thoth, or do *I*, the person that played the Salt, have that option?
