Misaki's Risky Ventures Timing

[MrDeathTrout]

Misaki's Risky Ventures gives her a to all Df flips and +:crows to Ml if she has no SS in her pool.

Now take this scenario:

1. Misaki is attacked.

2. During the Declare Soulstone Use step of the attack Misaki spends her last SS for a on her Df flip.

3. In the Flip Fate Card and Add Stat step of the attack Misaki has no SS. Does she get the free to her Df? This gives her her :+fate on the flip.

I think so, since when the flip occurs she has no SS, but I play Misaki so I may be biased.

That is an interesting question. I play Misaki as well. I usually do not count it until after spending that SS. So, I would only get the initial

That is just how I play it. However, please prove me wrong so that I can get that :+fate too.

Since you spend your last soul stone prior to making any flip, so from my understanding you'd have Risky Ventures active prior to the flip and thus give you a positive flip.

Following the strictest interpretation of the rules (and due to a background as an MTG judge I am apt to take the strictest interpretation) you would be able to burn the stone, and then also gain the benefit of risky ventures, resulting in a :+fate to the Df flip. As the OP was thinking, because of the timing you can gain both benefits.

Good deal. I will start doing this immediately.

[MrDeathTrout]

Thanks everyone. I thought so, but wanted to make sure I wasn't cheating.

Also on that if you burn your last stone for let's say a crow now since you have 0 stones you get a free crow. Yay assassinate!
