Question about Ghoulfiends

ellenscho · 05-12-2020, 11:15 AM

When fighting level 8 Ghoulfiends, the card says you cannot use any items, fight with your level only. But what if you have Really Impressive Title? That is not an item, but it is a bonus, not a level. So can you count that in your combat strength against Ghoulfiends?

I believe, Level only. There is a previous 2009 ruling about "Ghoulfiends," found here:
Ghoulfiends and Insurance Salesman

Here is a better example from 2016.

Furthermore, unless you have an outdated version, Ghoulfiends negates not only items but other bonuses.

All of the above is correct. Ghoulfiends can be fought only with your Level, not with any other bonuses.
