← All Smash Up: Awesome Level 9000 questions
If a minion searched by Sprout, or a card drawn by Water Lily, is played in the same start-of-turn step, can it act that same turn?
Several experienced players agree on the as-written reading; the designer's intent is only reported second-hand.
As written, yes. The start-of-turn step is one phase, so a Sprout replacement or a Water Lily draw can chain within it, as long as no minion or action has been played yet. Some players report that the designer meant a Sprout's minion to act from the next turn, but that comes second-hand, and the sources include no official FAQ ruling.
