When Sacred Vault is discarded with Machiavelli's discard and put into the centre region, the opponent doesn't discard his cards with 10 cost and less.
As intended or a bug?
If it's as intended then surely there needs to be something that says something like "if this card is played from your hand instead of via a discard placement"... or "this doesn't trigger coming into play effects"

I'm gonna have to say it's WAI. The wording of the card is really clear as it is right now:
"Opponent discards his memories that cost 11 or less.
If Sacred Vault is discarded, put it in the center region instead"
The key word here is "instead". :]

Well, my reading is like this: it's instead of being discarded, not instead of triggering coming into play effects.
so, the coming into play effects should trigger unless otherwise stated. This "reading issue" only really matters on sacred vault and odai of media, because they're the only discard effects that do a drop into play.
If its intended that they don't trigger, the text should state that. As it is it looks like it should trigger.

I was wondering about this as well, but I'm gonna have to go with WAI.
It would be pretty broken if the effect was allowed as soon as it drops into play from its secondary effect.
3 Cost for Machiavelli and discard Sacred Vault from Nico's effect to trigger an almost complete hand discard sounds pretty broken to me, especially if you played it first turn after dropping a PP and its all over.

Yeah I agree, but then please just fix the card text about it  Not a huge fan of broken either |

I think we can close this one.  |

Closed! They really should do a few clarifications: > magnetic personality & recover > have and get is confusing for noobs > some of these 11 costs can be read as, well, above. |
