O R'lyeh is basically Annihilation reskinned and slightly changed, so I would rule that one could be used to cancel the other.

Why can't the player destroy the restraining order after it is in effect? destroying it does not have direct impact on the player who played it (e.g I can destroy the Annihilation Order but to decide eventually not to put any cards against the player who used the AO). I see it the same way as a curse removing action, if I decide to remove a curse that I'm possessed with, does that mean I use it against the player who put the AO? |

Your comparison to canceling a Curse that is affecting you is poorly formed. In that case, you aren't canceling an effect on the player of the Restraining Order, so there's nothing to cause that card to trigger.

And still, I disagree with you, and I will try to express why with this example: Player A is a Bard, and he tries to force Player B to help him in combat. The dices are rolled and player A got 5 while player B got 2, but player b owns a Loaded Dice, which he wanna use to win the dice roll and avoid joining the battle. Can player A user RO to deny player B from using the dice? The logic here for me is, if the card you are using is for your own defense, you can use it because RO can only deny attack cards directed on the RO owner. But destroying the RO itself is a defense act, not a direct attack on the RO owner, and therefor it should be permitted. |

and what about the scenario I gave, what do you say? can the Bard use his RO to deny the Loaded Die from the player who was forced to join the combat? because using the dice would effect negatively the Bard combat. Anyway I really appreciate your comments and answers. thank you for that. :) |

Restraining Order doesn't prevent a player from using cards on herself. It prevents a specific player from playing cards on the person who played Restraining Order, if the effect of those cards would be negative to the RO player. Using Annihilation to cancel RO would definitely qualify as a negative effect.
