    In a Supervillain Rumble game, the targeted player may still choose “others.” Each player who isn’t the active player or the targeted player will thus be affected.

  • WotCJun 15, 2010

    The targeted player may choose “others” even if there are no others (because all of their teammates have lost the game, for example), or the archenemy’s other opponents can’t perform the resulting action.

  • WotCJun 15, 2010

    The targeted player may choose “self” even if they can’t perform the resulting action. For example, a player targeted with Feed the Machine may choose “self” even if they control no creatures.
