Rulings

  • Only a Dark Soul can spring it (10.4.3). The Ambusher gains Defiance until the end of the turn; its damage is the Ambusher's ATK minus the attacker's DEF at the moment it is dealt.
  • The Ambusher is captured after a battle in which it was the Attack Target, in that battle's aftermath (9.5.9). If it only attacks another card, or does not battle this turn, it stays; in a battle against itself (Confusion) it is the Attack Target and is captured.
  • If the Ambusher was already captured in the battle, nothing more happens.
