Question

161 – If you play an attack event like uppercut, targeting a sinister 6 villain in play with 1 HP left and you use the audacity resource to help pay for it, defeating that villain with the response, what happens next?

Answer

As long as there is at least 1 Sinister Six villain in play, you can play Uppercut. You’d spend Audacity + 2 other resources and resolve Audacity’s 1 damage immediately, dealing 1 to a villain in play. If this defeats the villain you intended to damage with Uppercut, you have the option to deal 5 to a different enemy instead if possible. If there is no other enemy in play, you discard Uppercut without dealing its damage.
