Rules FAQ
- Unlike the original version of the card, putting Desert Raider into play from your dead pile is a cost, so you cannot trigger it if Desert Raider cannot enter play (due to Barring the Gates, for instance).
I don't want to sound Salty but this card is still busted. The ability to rez itself indefinitely, steal icons, and then give the enemy a power is a bit much. I've seen this in use and there's no counterplay outside of plots but that only slows it down for a turn. The very next turn, it will rez, steal icons, die again, give the enemy a power from prized, and then the Martell play proceeds to steal that power. And that cycle continues until the game is over.
