atomic lariat question???

[jslater2005]

if im playing against goldberg and i play atomic lariat, can he reverse it by using his ability. Im not sure since it says can only be reversed by unique and hybrid reversal cards and its rms. any help is appreciated.

[The Devil]

no cuz his ability is not a unique or hybrid reversal

Yeah..Devil got it. Not sure how Goldberg's ability can be confused as being either a hybrid or unique reversal..but whatever.

Hybrid Reversals are Reversals that also have a Manuever or Action subtype. Unique reversals are Reversals that have the Unique trait.

Also, Goldberg cannot use his ability against cards with "Can only be reversed from Arsenal, Hand, etc" clauses, his ability is considered to be reversing from the Backstage area.

Also..

Goldberg
-Goldberg has to discard 3 cards from hand in order to use his reversal ability. You can’t use his Superstar Ability with 2 or less cards in hand.
-He cannot reverse a Maneuver that is irreversible via his Superstar Ability, unless using an outside effect such as Beating the Odds.
-Goldberg cannot reverse cards with “Can only be reversed by” card-specific restrictions such as those found on Clutch Onto Opponent or Poke.
-He ignores Fortitude requirements when using his reversal ability.
-If Goldberg reverses a Discus Punch, the Discus’s player will not take +2D. His ability has no D amount, so +2D cannot be added to it.
-Goldberg’s Spear cards are F: 0 as reversals as well as maneuvers.
-If Spear and/or Jackhammer are removed via Ric Flair or Evolution’s Superstar Ability, they can be reshuffled into the Arsenal. Goldberg’s ability modifies them wherever they are, including the Ring Area.

originally Goldberg was ruled that because it was an ability, it was hense immune to cards that had to be reversed by specific types of things, like Clutch and Atomic Lariat. then they lifted that as you have so pointed out.
