|combos=* [[Surprise]] + [[Dark Waters]] The little known ability of [[Dark Waters]] to reduce Force drains makes it a fairly powerful card, especially if it can be used to follow your opponent's drains.<ref name="scomp">https://scomp.starwarsccg.org/?s=Surprise</ref>
* [[Surprise]] + [[Death Mark]] Since many decks play with [[Han Solo{{!}}Han]] and [[Chewie (The Empire Strikes Back Introductory Two-Player Game){{!}}Chewie]], you can retarget the [[Death Mark]] to whoever happens to be farther away at the time.
* [[Surprise]] + [[Death Squadron]] The only thing that weakens this otherwise pretty good card is that the Rebellion tends to stay away from it. Well, with [[Surprise]], you can bring the Squadron to them.
|rulings=* May be played as a response to a just-initiated Interrupt or Utinni Effect, or as a top-level action targeting a Utinni Effect already on table.<ref name="scomp" />
* When retargeting [[Nabrun Leids]], choose either a new group of characters or a new destination site (not both).
* When choosing a new group of characters for [[Nabrun Leids]], may not include any of the original characters.
* When choosing a new group of characters for [[Nabrun Leids]], they may be a group at a different origin site.
* May not retarget something that isn't chosen until the result step, such as a card being taken into hand from Reserve Deck by e.g. [[The Signal]].
* In order to relocate an Effect, it must be able to deploy on the new location at the time of playing this Interrupt (but ignore uniqueness rules).
* This only relocates a regular Effect, not other types such as Immediate Effect, Mobile Effect, Utinni Effect, etc.
