Answers to FAQs

  • The ability can target linked modules as well as modules in any memory, even owned by different players. Modules in hand or archive cannot be chosen.
  • If no two other quantum modules can be chosen, Entanglement can still be linked and no module gains power this way.
  • Here, "other" means "other than this module" (Entanglement cannot target itself).
  • Modifiers are applied in the order they resolved.  
  • The ability acts as a modifier, so it does not count towards the activation of the next seeker.
  • The effect does not terminate if Entanglement is unlinked or leaves play.

The power of many quantum technologies is rooted in quantum entanglement. Quantum particles like electrons or ion shave properties, such as spin, that can be precisely controlled and measured using lasers and other technologies. When quantum particles become entangled, their properties become correlated in a surprising way: While measuring the spin of each entangled particle individually yields random outcomes, examining the combined measurements reveals a striking connection: if one particle is observed to have a certain spin, the other particle will exhibit the opposite spin with certainty. This is a phenomenon that is unparalleled by anything in the classical world.
