Meta Rules
Meta #32 If conditions are such that the card cannot be played this battle unless the opponent performs some action, then the card must be placed or discarded as unusable. If the player holds cards that can create the situation by which the card would be playable, then it can be kept in hand.

Meta #47 When a Special refers to a "Hit" (be it on Permanent Record or Hits from Current Battle) it is referring to a single card, not the sum total of the points of Cumulative damage.

Meta #95 Specials which affect how things occur in the next battle prior to the Battle phase (e.g., before placing begins in the next battle) can be negated in the battle in which they are played. Once the next battle begins (and the effect has already taken place) the Special is no longer in play (it is discarded to the Dead Pile) and cannot be negated. Specials which last longer than the placing phase can still be negated.

Meta #103 If a Special calls for some type of discard to occur (and no secondary effect), then the targeted Character must fulfill at least one of the conditions specified by the Special (e.g., "Remove 1 Hit" can only be played on a Character who has a hit; "Discard a placed card and remove 1 hit" can be played on someone who has a hit, or someone who has a placed card, or someone who has both). If the specification is not known or the Special has a secondary effect which would come into play (e.g., "Discard one {type} card from hand") then the Special may be played regardless.
