Truth or Trickery (Yellow)

Truth or Trickery triggers when it becomes a defending card on the combat chain. This is an optional effect: you choose to look at the top card of your deck and choose a color when the triggered effect resolves. If you do, then the attacking hero guesses if the card is the chosen color or not. Then they will look at the card to verify it. If the card is not the chosen color, they discard a card from their hand of their choice.

If you choose to look at the top card of your deck and choose a color, looking and recognizing the color of the card (if any) is a mandatory part of the effect. After that, there is no opportunity for you to look at the card during the remaining resolution of Truth or Trickery’s triggered layer.

When resolving Truth or Trickery’s triggered effect, if there is no attacking hero when this triggered effect resolves, you may still look at the top card of your deck and choose a color; however, the subsequent conditional effects will fail as there is no attacking hero to neither guess, look nor discard.

The colors that you can choose are those that are available on color strips that are typically located at the top of a Flesh and Blood. Cards that do not have a color strip (e.g. Gorganian Tome) have no color.

If you come under the effect that results in cards you own to lose colors (e.g. Blanch), the card itself will have no color; however, you can still choose a color.
