By easily gaining the benefits 【Oracle】 abilities, you can expect 《Oracle Think Tank》’s defenders to play the lynchpin role of defense.

Q. Can either player check cards face-down in the Bind Zone?

A. They cannot check. A card that’s placed face-down in the Bind Zone cannot be checked by anyone other than the owner of the card, and only the owner of the placed card can check it.
