Sudario Refraction +1 stealth action. Choose three cards in you ash heap and move them to the top of your library. Then discard three cards at random from your hand (and draw up to your hand size afterward). It is my understanding that you draw up to hand size always (exception: cards w/ do not replace text).So if I play Sudario Refaction (w/ a depleted libary and three cards in hand out of a possible seven), I will choose three cards and put them at the top of my libary and immediatly draw up to my hand size. Now I must discard three cards at random. Correct? Matt

[ quoted text not captured ] No. You play Sudario. And it resolves when played. The resolution causes you to move cards to your ash heap and discard cards at random from your hand. After resolving that effect, you draw up to your hand size.

It was my understanding that (and draw up to your hand size afterward) was just to clarify that your discard all three cards at the same time instead of one at a time as its placement in the "equation" seems to indiciate. Is there a draw up to hand size effect or just a replace effect (cards played or discarded) If there is only a replace effect, if you have a depleted libary and play a card, do you check to replace and find that there is no card just once or contiune to check until there is a card to replace with? If you check just once does this reduce your hand size? Matt

Wouldn't the draw/replace effect be continuous? When do you check to draw/replace?

It would seem that there is a draw up to hand size effect in the game i.e. elder libary, year of fortune etc... So drawing to replace it just a subset of this group. With that in mind Sudario Refaction would not work as you stated unless you are making a ruling that its text is incorrectly written. i.e Do not draw up to hand size until this action is resolved. would that also mean that you do not replace action modifers. maybe... if this action is successful, do not draw up to hand size until this action is resolved. I appologize for being a pain. Me and some of my play group talked about a deck w/ Mata Hari/Sudario Refraction/Waste Man. Op. and decided that you would have to draw up to hand size before discarding so I was suprised that you said otherwise. Hoping you will get back to me with this, Matt

[ quoted text not captured ] But if you had less than a full hand size, you'd be forced to redraw up to your handsize after the cards were put into your empty library but before you discarded three cards at random, correct?

That was the question above. The answer is given above.

And it is also the case that you resolve effects when they resolve. The question is: do you interrupt effects to juxtapose a few "draw a card" effects? The answer is: no. > So drawing to replace it just a subset of this group.

The action card is replaced as it is played (after announcing the terms of the action and waiting for DI's and such and tapping the acting minion). Other cards played prior to resolving the effect are replaced as they are played (similarly for cards discarded prior to resolving some effect). Eventually, though, you'll get to the resolve the action step. At which point you apply the effect of the successful action.

[ quoted text not captured ] So all these threads about Sudario and cards in hand less than your hand size are incorrect? http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad/browse_thread/thread/1b5b940c591f89a4/0c45e6d05322adbc?lnk=gst&q=sudario+empty+library#0c45e6d05322adbc http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad/browse_thread/thread/1e3c99f44adbeed/80d75e77b1351908?lnk=gst&q=sudario+empty+library#80d75e77b1351908 http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad/browse_thread/thread/3823d294098ed5ca/293da4779849eb21?lnk=gst&q=sudario+empty+library#293da4779849eb21 http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad/browse_thread/thread/6fcb19abb97adcb3/3c83e57fd51a9c85?lnk=gst&q=sudario+empty+library#3c83e57fd51a9c85 I'm all for Sudario Refraction working with an empty hand. It will be a big boon to twister decks. Later, ~Rehlow

[ quoted text not captured ] Ah, fantastic. I could have sworn I had made a ruling on this before, but couldn't find it. (Apparently I had been content to let the Newsgroup Elders' answers suffice, which is why my Googling didn't turn up anything for me.) Thanks. REVERSAL: Sudario's effect is stepped and interrupted as, apparently, intuition suggests. 3 cards in hand (hand size of 7 and empty library). Play Sudario Refraction. Move 3 cards to library. Immediately draw 3 cards. Then discard 3 cards at random.
