Rulings & errata
›How does Jax, Unmatched work?
Jax, Unmatched grants Quick-Draw to Equipment in your hand, which works as far as letting you play them as Reactions… but doesn’t work so well when the Equipment hits the board and the other part of Quick-Draw tries to take effect. We’re fixing that.
Jax, Unmatched (revised text)
[Deflect] (Opponents must pay [A] to choose me with a spell or ability.)
Your Equipment everywhere have [Quick-Draw]. (Each gains [Reaction]. When you play it, attach it to a unit you control.)
Kato the Arm
›Can Kato the Arm give himself his own Might and keywords?
“Friendly unit” does properly include Kato himself, but that wasn’t the intent behind this card—Kato can’t throw himself, after all. It was a simple goof that Kato made it out the door without the word “another,” and the gameplay is so divergent from the design intent that we’re changing it to fix this error.
