Question

I was wondering if you could help clarify a cost question for me. It is my understanding that costs are paid simultaneously. For example it has been ruled that a 1-hp Venom hero can use Symbiotic Bond to pay for Momentum Shift and end up with 2 hp. If I have an ally that has Clarity of Purpose Attached with 1 remaining hp. Can I pay for, play “You Got This”, and target that same ally with 1 remaining hp? Defeat is often considered a very immediate effect so I’m not positive if I can stack both the damage/defeat and discard cost on the same ally

Answer

Yes. Because costs are paid simultaneously, the ally is dealt damage/defeated in the same step as it is discarded via the ability cost of “You Got This!”, allowing you to pay for “You Got This!” in this way.
