Discard- the card is played, only its effect is canceled. It doesn't mention returning the card to the opponent's hand either, and reinforces the fact that the card is played by adding "the domain used [to play] that even.
What say you all!?
Its a darned good card, all things considered!
I'd much rather be using a two domain to do my own thing on my turn rather keeping it open on the off chance my opponent decided to play an event. A lot of decks aren't super event heavy. That being said, I can imagine situations where this would be useful, but Hastur's cancellations are almost all better than this.
Chosen for CotD 25th July 2015, as when I was looking at reactive control cards I pondered on this.
Whilst it does refresh the domain and relies on the event being one that targets a character you control, for those times when you need to prevent DOA or Pushed into the Beyond, this can be a lifesaver.
I know some people prefer proactive cards over reactive cards, as keeping a 2 cost domain open that you may never use that turn can be a turn-off, but the control player in me is sorely tempted!
Has anyone got any experience with the card, good or bad?
Giving them their domain back hurts this card, now they can potentially play another event or just use some "pay x" type ability with it, or even play a character/support if it's still their Operations phase. If it cost less, maybe, but for 2 it's just too niche I think.
I want to like it. I've been considering to put it into my new Tesla deck - because that guy sure needs every protection he can get!
