Effect cards are also considered to be in your Realm when they are takes it all the core prepared played. A card only affects other cards in the same Realm. No card in one Villain’s Realm will ever affect a card in another Villain’s Realm. Cards in your hand, decks, and discard piles are not in your Realm.

“Playing” Cards and “Moving” Cards Playing a card refers to adding a card to a Villain’s Realm, either from your hand or from a deck or discard pile. Moving a card refers to taking a card that is in the Realm and moving it to a new location. If a card’s Ability is triggered when it (or another card) is played, the Ability is not triggered if it is moved. Likewise, if a card’s Ability is triggered when it (or another card) is moved, the Ability is not triggered if it is played.

“Revealing” Cards and “Looking at” Cards If a card instructs you to reveal cards, turn the cards so that all players can see them. If a card instructs you to look at cards, you may look at them privately, keeping them hidden from the other players. If you need to reveal or look at a Includes: Includes: Includes: card from a deck when it is empty, shuffle the discard pile to form a new deck.
