When playing Tideturner as a hidden card at a battlefield, can it target units at other locations (like base), or is it restricted to only units within that battlefield?
Ruling: Tideturner can target units at other locations (including base) even when played as a hidden card at a battlefield, because its ability explicitly restricts targeting to "a unit you control at another location," which makes the normal hidden card targeting restriction impossible to follow.
Nuances:
- The general rule is that hidden cards at a battlefield must target options within that battlefield
- However, when an ability explicitly restricts targeting in a way that makes this impossible, the ability's targeting restriction takes precedence
- Tideturner has errata that specifies "at another location" in its targeting text
