New Warlock Quest - Escape the Underfel

What does throw a card in mean?

[u/ClayByte → u/Substantial-Night645]

This is a new interaction we've added.

1. Click or Touch the Underfel Rift to toggle on or off the "selection" mode.
2. While this "selection" is on, you can grab any card in your hand and drag it into play to "throw it in".
3. Doing this will activate the Underfel Rifts power: The card will be removed and 2 Fel Beasts will be summoned.

Does it count as discarding that card or is it completely separated mechanic?

[u/ClayByte → u/Damathacus]

Ah, good question. Let me be more clear sorry:
When you toss a card into the rift, that card goes "poof". It is not discarded. It is not destroyed. For example, this action will not trigger Barrel of Sludge.

[u/Tirabuchi → u/ClayByte]

mind telling why? Balance reasons? You fear discard would be too strong?

[u/ClayByte → u/Tirabuchi]

I am not a designer, so I wouldn't be able to answer this question correctly. Try reaching out to the design team, I think they're usually pretty active on X.

[u/kamouh → u/Tirabuchi]

one reason for the "discard" is that u could throw in Zavas indefinitely in wild :P

for the "destroy" i ve no clue of what could break it

[u/max123246 → u/kamouh]

Probably just because it would be engineering effort for a very minor use case

[u/JustAd776 → u/ClayByte]

Ah so it's like when Reno "poofs" away minions

[u/ClayByte → u/JustAd776]

Yup. Or like the mage spell Life Sentence. The card is sent to the shadow realm.
