How the style works
The mechanics this style combines, in the order the deck wants them. Only mechanics with real candidate cards are shown.
These mechanics are combined in the game-authored seed and in the current card data.

Cards for a Discard Deck

Internal Version 1.0 deck definitions that contain this style’s core cards. They are evidence that the strategy exists — not a deck list to copy, because an internal deck is not automatically legal for a player.

The Deck Builder opens with the Discard card pool already filtered. You still choose the 50 cards yourself, and copy limits, evolution gaps and effect coverage are checked as you build.
Discard questions
Which discard cards hit the opponent?
The Discard page shows the target of every verified discard action, so you can separate hand disruption from cards that discard your own hand as a cost.
Browse all Discard cards →Which cards combine discard and mill?
Mill and discard are the two disruption families that show up together most often in this build. The Mill page covers the deck-attacking half.
Browse Mill cards →Do I need recovery cards?
Recovery is what makes discarding your own cards cheap, because the card comes back instead of being gone. The Recovery page lists the cards that pull out of the discard pile.
