⚠ This ruling is from an older rules version (Hall of Heroes (rules 1.0–1.4)) and might be outdated.

Question

: If Rocket Raccoon uses his “Tinkering” ability but the Tech upgrade is not placed into a discard pile (such as due to Collector’s ability), will Rocket Raccoon draw 2 cards?

Answer

Yes. Discarding is the act of attempting to place a card into a discard pile. Even if the Tech upgrade ends up in a different game area, the cost of Rocket Raccoon’s “Tinkering” ability was still paid
