    Post [BUG] Gravebone's ability isn't effected by Portal

    Hello community.

    I thought it would be fun to build a Gravebone Portal deck... this is what came out:

    Description: While Portal is summoned the allies I am reviving with Gravebone's ability are exhausted (in my case it was a Sun-blighted One ).
    Platform: PC client (not the web browser version).
    Version: Version 2.0
    Steps to reproduce: T3 Sun-blighted One (gets killed...); T4 Portal & after that Gravebone's ability; T5 ; T6 world domination (South Park S02E17...).

    Gravebone doesn't summon allies. He puts them into play. So they're unaffected by Portal.

    Portal grants haste, which means that allies that are summoned are not exhausted. Summoned is specifically the act of playing an ally to the board from your hand. When you use Gravebone's ability, the ally goes straight from the graveyard to the playing field. Therefore, it is not summoned. No bug.

    Hi WarSocket and welcome to the forums!

    Thanks for the report, however this is not a bug. "Summoned" refers to the ally being played from your hand and Portal only works on Summoned Allies. Gravebone's ability only brings allies back into play and does not summon them.
