| Offensive | Yes |
|---|---|
| Defensive | No |
| Duration | Battle |
When this Special is played, the attacker must choose 1 of the opponent's front-line Characters. The chosen Character must immediately discard all cards that are "placed" to him (like with an AU Special). In the case where the target Character has a Special Card in effect that allows him to have more than the usual number of cards "placed" to him, all of those cards are discarded as well; however, the Special that allows the additional "placed" cards is NOT discarded as it is "in effect" and not "placed" to that Character. In addition, the target Character cannot play offensive cards that affect the opponent or any of the opponent's Character for the remainder of the Battle (like with an AV Special). The target Character may still defend himself from attacks directed at him, and may still play cards that affect his own team, or the Battle in general (i.e., "Add 3 to the Venture total," for example). If the target character does not have any cards placed to them, then the first part of the Special is ignored.
Meta Rules
Meta #52 Specials which alter how a Character (or the opponent) may attack cannot be played defensively unless there is a secondary effect from the Special which is being used defensively.
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.
Meta #150 Specials which target a Character must be played against a character - they may not be played against a Special or a Battlesite.
