If you use Portal Rescue on a Token, will it result in a token played in your base?

Ruling: No. When Portal Rescue banishes a token, the token ceases to exist when it enters the banished zone (a non-board zone), so there is nothing left to play to your base.

Sequence:

  • Portal Rescue banishes the token
  • The token enters the banished zone (a non-board zone)
  • The token ceases to exist immediately
  • The "play it to your base" effect has no valid target and does nothing

Nuances:

  • You can technically target a token with Portal Rescue, but it will simply disappear rather than achieving the intended effect
