The card states it can't be duplicated on a given company. Originally, the
opponent has two separate companies and SYCB is played on a character in each of the two companies (a legal play). The two companies meet at a haven and join. Now there are two characters in one company with SYCB. What happens? Is it:

a. One must be discarded, and the player controlling the characters decides which one is discarded
b. One must be discarded, and the hazard player decides which one
c. Neither is discarded, the effects simply aren't duplicated on the company

I lean toward (c) because they were both legal when played and there's
nothing stating that they should be discarded. [The player affected insisted on (a).]

*** The answer is b.
Why (b)? Is there an actual rule about this?

ICE's ruling?

If so it contradicts with other ICE rule:

Thanks. I guess SYCB is just a special case then. Locked.
