| − | * | + | * Way of the Chameleon only affects what effects ''you'' get from a card you play, not what happens to other players. For instance, if you play {{card|Governor}} with Way of the Chameleon and choose +Cards, you get +{{cost|3}} but other players still get +1 Card. |
| − | * Way of the Chameleon can be used on cards without any + | + | * {{Card|Cellar}}, {{Card|Oracle}}, {{Card|Storeroom}}, and {{Card|Storyteller}} were originally phrased as +Cards, but were re-worded in later printings to be "draw". Go by whichever wording is printed on the cards you are using. |
| − | + | * Way of the Chameleon can be used on cards without any +cards or +{{Cost|}} (e.g., {{Card|Chapel}}) or cards with equal +Cards and +{{Cost|}} (e.g., {{Card|Market}}) even though this would normally have no effect. Doing so will still allow a card to override {{Card|Enchantress}}. | |
| − | * | + | * {{Card|Courtier}} receives bonuses in order listed, so if you use Way of the Chameleon on Courtier, and choose the options of gaining a {{Card|Gold}} and +3 Cards (originally +{{Cost|3}}), you gain the Gold after drawing |
| − | + | * This has no interaction with the -{{Cost|1}} from {{Card|Poor House}}; "-{{Cost|1}}" doesn't become "-1 Card." This also has no interaction with Coffers. | |
| − | + | * If you would get +1 Card while you have the -1 Card token, but instead get +{{Cost|1}}, you won't remove your token. A similar thing applies to the -{{Cost|1}} token. | |
| − | * | + | * This has no interaction with any +Cards or +{{Cost}} from Boons. So if you play {{Card|Druid}} as Way of the Chameleon and then recieve {{Boon|The Field's Gift}}, you still get +1 Action +{{Cost|1}}. |
| − | + | * If the card you play with Way of the Chameleon gives bonuses later in the same turn, this will still apply to those bonuses. For example, if you play a {{Card|Priest}} as Way of the Chameleon, it will give +2 Cards anytime you trash a card. | |

|Text=At first you could mix up the four basic +'s any which way. It's too hard to communicate what happens with +2 of something - can you split it up or not - in the space available, plus it was too many options. I fixed both things by having it just exchange cards and {{Cost|}}. Then I added "this turn" so you didn't have tracking on [[duration]]s. | |Text=At first you could mix up the four basic +'s any which way.
