GAMEPLAY EXAMPLE
- Hand size of 6,
- Controlled Chaos effect is activated by the player. This is an optional effect. The player has chosen to DISCARD 2 cards.
2) Dread Pirate Unicorn is in play and has been triggered by the optional effect of discarding 2 cards. As per Peter Bailey and the wiki, each card that is discarded becomes its own DISCARD effect. This is a mandatory effect and takes place. http://unstablegameswiki.com/index.php... 2.1a) One card is chosen for DISCARD which is modified up to two cards by DPU. This would create two instances of one card being discarded. 2.1b) Parallel Universcorn is in play. It has an optional effect that is triggered by the mandatory effect. This card states if a player would DISCARD a card they may INSTEAD draw a card if they have not reached their hand limit. 2.1c) Hand limit (default) is 7 and that status is checked at end of turn or whenever a hand limit is referenced. Special note - per the wiki, a hand limit modifier only takes effect in the End of Turn. During the turn, you hand limit is referenced to be 7, even if at the end of the turn you would be allowed to have more. So a generic DRAW effect would allow you to exceed 7 on a turn but Parallel Universcorn specifically states if the hand limit has not been reached and would hinder the effectiveness of activating its effect. http://unstablegameswiki.com/index.php... 2.1d) The replacement effect of Drawing takes place on the first card being DISCARDed in 2.1a. Hand now at 7 cards. The second card being DISCARDed in 2.1a and 2.1b would look at the hand limit, determine it has been reached, and a replacement effect cannot be utilized, thus resulting in a card being discarded. 2.1e) Net result is Draw 1, Discard 1 - Hand Count 6. 2.1f) Repeat process for 2nd DISCARD instance from 2.1a-2.1e. This results in Draw 1, Discard 1 - Hand Count 6. 3) Even if no cards had been discarded, a replacement effect such as Parallel Universcorn satisfies the requirement it replaced. So if Controlled Chaos was activated and Parallel replaced the effect, CC would consider the DISCARD portion of its effect as satisfied and you may continue to activate the rest of the card text. http://unstablegameswiki.com/index.php... 4) End result of turn: 2 New cards in hand 2 cards discarded Destroy a Unicorn -OR- Search deck for a Unicorn and add to your hand + Shuffle Deck
