Specific Card Rules and Information

There is no requirement preventing playing this card.

The card must be placed into a Stable during the resolution of the card.

• The Discard ability can only be triggered for mandatory or triggered effects, an effect cannot be used to replace a Requirement to play a card, an effect can replace the Requirement once the card resolves. The contents of a players Stable must be able to meet the requirement before a card is played.
• The triggered draw effect is added to the Draw Phase. If the Draw Phase is skipped or the mandatory draw of the phase is not taken, you do not draw the "extra" card. (A card must be drawn to have an extra card draw.)
• Official Statement There must be a cost. Ideally, a player who is bringing Archangel into their Stable would have 3 Cards in their Stable to Sacrifice. If they do not have 3 to Sac, they cannot play Archangel. Alternatively, if the player is using Archangel's effect to instead DISCARD 3 cards from their hand (which we recognize as a legal play, though it wasn't quite intended), they must have at least 3 cards in their hand to discard, otherwise the cost of Archangel is not being met and it cannot enter their Stable. This statement recognizes that there must be a cost to having an Archangel Unicorn, not that the sacrifice is a requirement to play the card.
