Rulings

  • It can be sprung only in the window in which an effect that targets the Ambusher, or the Ambusher's Soul Spot, goes on the Cascade, while that effect is on top (12.6.1).
  • It can't answer Instant Effects, which never go on the Cascade, nor effects that don't target, such as Defiance (12.6.3).
  • The negated effect does not resolve and its cost is not paid (11.5.3).
  • It can't negate an effect of a Soul that is Unyielding against it (rank 1 or higher). The Ambusher still gains +25 ATK and +15 DEF: the two parts are independent (13.6.5).
