'''One-shots''' are cards which trash themselves, or otherwise remove themselves from your custody, when you play them.
  
'''One-shots''' are cards which trash themselves, or otherwise remove themselves from your custody, when you play them. For some cards this self-trashing is a limitation to prevent you from getting multiple uses out of an otherwise powerful card; for a few, however, it's a feature to prevent the card from cluttering up your deck once you've gotten use out of it.

=== Permanent Durations ===
+
===Optional or potential one-shots===
These are [[Duration]] cards that, once you've played them, remain in play for the rest of the game and have effects that are activated every turn. They are therefore permanently removed from your deck, but still belong to you and provide ongoing benefits.

=== Conditional one-shots ===
+
* [[Intrigue]]: {{Card|Mining Village}}—you may trash this when you play it for an additional benefit
These cards do not always act as one-shots. Rather they offer the option to get an extra effect (e.g. in the case of {{Card|Mining Village}}), or they act as one-shot if certain conditions are met which are sometimes under the control of the user (e.g. in the case of {{Card|Horn of Plenty}}), sometimes not (e.g. in the case of {{Card|Knights}}).
+
* [[Cornucopia]]: {{Card|Horn of Plenty}}—this trashes itself if you use it to gain a Victory card
 +
* Dark Ages: {{Card|Death Cart}}—you trash this if you cannot, or decide not to, trash another Action card
 +
* Dark Ages: [[Knights]]—a Knight trashes itself if it is used to trash another Knight
  
* {{Set|Intrigue}}
+

** {{Card|Death Cart}} can trash itself or another [[Action]] card
+

+
** {{Card|Hermit}}—this exchanges (previously {{Card|Hermit|oi=2|trashes}}) itself if you didn't buy a card at one point on the turn when you play it
+
** {{Card|Urchin}}—you may trash this if you play another Attack while this is in play
+
* {{Set|Adventures}}
+
** [[Traveller]]s, such as {{Card|Hero}}, can [[exchange]] themselves for another card when discarded from play
+
** {{Card|Raze}} trashes another card or itself for its effect

+
** {{Card|Tragic Hero}} trashes itself if you have 8 or more cards in hand
+
* {{set|Menagerie (expansion)|Menagerie}}
+
** {{card|Stockpile}} [[exile]]s itself when played. In the early stages of the game it will generally only temporarily be removed from your deck, later it can become a one-shot once the pile runs out.
