We've played this both ways.

The rules on hand size state that you must "immediately discard cards in excess (of 7) to the Player Discard Pile." But when Discovering a Cure, you "discard 5 cards of the same color." So is discovering a cure immediately after having your hand size go over 7 cards an immediate-enough discard?


Sorry, but it isn't.

The word "immediately" in this context means that the act of discarding down to seven cards is part of the event in which the hand limit was exceeded. It's a single event, so you can't "immediately" discover a cure after drawing your 8th card because you can't move on to that action until the current action is resolved, and the current action won't be resolved until you've discarded down to seven cards.


My guess is you play Magic:the Gathering
