Question
If you reveal a side scheme with One Way or Another and cancel the effects of the side scheme (with, for example, Warp Reality or Spycraft), do you still get to draw 3 cards? The Cancel entry in the RR instructs us that any treachery cards are still revealed when they are canceled, but does not touch on any other card types that are revealed (such as side schemes). I’m inclined to think that it works the same for all of the other card types due to the wording of most cancelling cards: “..cancel all of its effects and discard it..”. To me, it sounds like if you cancel the effects, you still reveal the card, but it ends up being blank and gets discarded. Does this thought process seem valid?
Answer
Short answer, yes. Similar to a treachery card, if the effects of a side scheme are cancelled, the side scheme would still be considered revealed, and would still be placed in the encounter discard pile. You could still draw 3 cards from One Way or Another even if you canceled the effects on the revealed side scheme.
