When you play long lances with ambush can you stand an other Targaryan character?
What makes you doubt that you could? :)

Does anyone else think this deserves the "Dothraki" trait??
They don't look like Dothraki ;D
They are not Dothraki ! their text says they are sworn to Yunkai :P

if you pull up Jhogo (OSaS) and have them right next to each other in a game, it seems like they were made for each other. I know "long lances" goes against everything dothraki, i just can't help wishing instead of the merc trait, its was dothraki lol
Well, I would probably play Jhogo in any deck that I play these guys anyway so :)
I wonder who rated this card with less than 5 stars.
Even the mercenary trait is no big downside, with Recruitment (VD) or Ambush from the Plains (QoD) in our hands.
I rated it 4 I'm pretty sure of. It's a really good card, but I wouldn't place it among the very best.
Well I do rate Distinct Mastery (Core) high and this will have the same first time surprise factor in and can be used continuously. (It does have influence cost if you use it like that, but it also has 3str bicon army body behind it as well.)
Can u use two of these each once per phase?

If I'm understanding you, then yes. Each copy of Long Lances can activate its own response once per phase.
'After a character comes into play' Does opponent's characters count for this?
Absolutely. One of the many reasons this card is incredibly good.
Does coming out of shadows count aswell?

Yes.

I would say yes. Great card! Can I use it's response after Ambush from the plains? What if played card is a dupe?

dupes are not characters, so it would not work. A character didn't enter play, a dupe did.

You can play after ambush from the plains, but not if you're ambushing in a dupe.
Can I use LL response after LL enters play?

Can I use LL response after LL enters play?

It is a character and it enters play, so yes :)
I think he was intending on itself Loras
is this card still restricted? It doesn't have the normal red "restricted" title on here.
They аre restricted in joust.
