When Deadbloom Predator is played with Confront to an occupied battlefield, does it enter exhausted, and can it move to a base after combat ends?
Ruling: When you play Confront, the Deadbloom Predator enters ready even when played to an occupied battlefield. After combat ends, it can move to a base if it survived the combat.
Sequence:
- Play Deadbloom Predator with Confront to occupied battlefield
- Deadbloom Predator enters ready
- Combat occurs
- If Deadbloom Predator survives combat, it can move to a base after combat ends
Nuances:
- If you win the showdown, the Predator can move (assuming it survived)
- If you don't win the showdown but the Predator survives, it would be recalled anyway since it's the attacker
