BS11 Posted May 21, 2021 Posted May 21, 2021 Just confused about Domino’s Probability Matrix vs. Pierce PM “…this character may treat one <skull> as a <crit>…” Pierce “change one of the defending character’s <crit>, <wild> or <shield> to a blank” can an attacker use pierce to change one of Domino’s <skulls> to a blank? Assuming Domino has paid for at least one PM. my reading is no as Domino has used the PM Superpower to treat it as a <crit> (specifically “this character” in the PM text) and the attacker can only modify the three results listed. But I’m not sure My understanding is that the text says that only Domino gets to treat the <skull> as a <crit> result. Not the attacker (who can’t modify a <skull> ).
Negoldar Posted May 21, 2021 Posted May 21, 2021 Pierce will affect those Failure results as Probability Matrix makes them Criticals.
RoockieBoy Posted May 21, 2021 Posted May 21, 2021 Sorry to jump on the train, but the phrase “makes them criticals” raises another question for me... Does it mean it’s a modification? Would it be affected by Living Ribbons and Mnemonic Technique, for example? Thanks in advance!
Negoldar Posted May 21, 2021 Posted May 21, 2021 It is not modification. Modification effects occur in step 9 of the attack timing. This effect occurs in between steps 7 and 8 of the attack timing.

BS11 Posted May 21, 2021 Author Posted May 21, 2021 Ok but why? The text says Domino treats it as a crit not makes it a crit. Also Domino treats it as a crit not the attacker.
Negoldar Posted May 21, 2021 Posted May 21, 2021 The intention behind this rule is for all rules interactions the die is no longer a Failure. Reality Gem works in a similar way in regards to modifications More details can be found here:
