Question

If the forced response on the main scheme “Asteroid M” causes you to empty the encounter deck from discarding and you didn’t reveal a MAGNETIC card, does that mean you don’t remove the 3 magnet counters? Does “then” on the last effect here mean everything before it must resolve or be true?

Answer

Because Asteroid M’s ability says “Reveal that card, then remove 3 magnet counters”, you only remove the magnet counters if a Magnetic card was revealed. If you emptied the deck during the discard without finding a Magnetic card, you wouldn’t remove any counters.
