Jul 23, 2012 14:24:50 Can I play a Saving Throw on an opponent creature to remove Arcane Ritual, Behind Enemy Lines or Cleave? That would seem to be unintended, but there is nothing on the Saving Throw card to indicate I can't play it on an opponent creature.

Just out of curiosity - then what is the purpose of Saving Throw? I own Undeath and Cormyr and I don't think I see what bad attached cards there are to remove?

From lolth:
Faerie Fire (your creature takes +10 damage)
Web (You can't move, but you can spend a standard action to remove this card)

Plus there are lots that you can play on your own creatures for a temporary benefit that you'll want to remove later, especially in the goblin set.
Shattered weapon
Leap away

etc.
