Maze doesn't move the character, but simply places it on a new square so it doesn't trigger POK. The exact same thing would happen with Whirlwind or any other card that places a character on a new square.
Thank you for the response. One would assume any movement would trigger movement related effects unless stated otherwise
All movement does, but only in the game-specific meaning of movement. Path Of Knives specifically says the character takes damage if they "move." "Move" is not a word for any change of location but is a specific game event occurring. All the cards that trigger POK all use the word "move" either in the direct text, or in the phrasing of a keyword on that card. No where on Maze does it say that the character moves. You are correct that it is not intuitive, but it is consistent with game terminology and usage.
Not too old, right? Just a year, right? .. Right? ~ This "gotcha" has gottencha many times in many ways. Why do Whirlwind and Whirlwind Enemies move over water but Winds of War (along with winds-flavor-sounding-Gusts of War) does not? Why don't WW, WWE, and Maze slice up a character walking the Path of Knives when we all clearly see them move? Et cetera. Sure, teaching and learning from fellow Cardhuntrians can be an enjoyable experience in and of itself, but this topic (and confusing and potentially lost games) could still probably be avoided if (suggestion time!) "Place" became a keyword, something like, "Pick character up off the board and put(/place) back down onto the board. This does not count as any type of Move." Btw, I thought I was really slick last year going into Wicked Waterway for the first time all gussied up with GoW and some WoW. $;^ b Funny thing is, in that one match where I received the shock to my system, my opp said s/he learned the same thing the hard way, too -- iirc, also in Wicked Waterway. Ha ha ha.
