| This thread is out of hand. It seems obvious to me and I dont understand why other people cant see it. Minions are killed and then put in the discard pile, or, discarded. |

| Being put in the discard pile is the same as being discarded. Just like being put in the dead pile is the same as being killed. Until Decipher rules otherwise, this is the correct way to play. |

I can say exactly the same 
You say X=Y
I say Y is a consequence of X, X is NOT a consequence of Y.
Pity RoS cannot be played online - then it could be checked
I give up further discussion 
PS. Thanks Felipe for your support  |

Spammers really are amazing creatures. You can learn all there is to know about their ways in a month. And yet, after a hundred years, they can still surprise you.  |

| well SoP what is going on is we’re trying to decid if minions losing all their vitility and "dying" is the same as "Discarding" minions with cards like What are they because if it is not the same, the whole infinite evil men loop falls apart, currently i think bib just made a statement that says that by default Diying is the same as being discarded for minions |

Personally, I *think* it is the same.
If the rules say that when a minion dies, it is discarded, then that solves that. And if the rules say that when a minion dies, it goes to the discard pile, well, isn’t that the very defination of discarding?
Anyways, there are a lot of rule flukes like this that D needs to make clear, but I doubt they ever will. |

That depends. Do you PLAY skirmish events for them to take place, or do you DISCARD them?  |

Felipe,
i think you PLAY it and when it finishes what it is doing it is discarted!
What i understand after all is:
Killed = Discarted
Discarted <> (different) Killed
is this ?! |
