A deck discarder, or Chancellor variant, is any card that puts your deck into your discard pile.
Discarding your deck means that the next time you draw cards (e.g., drawing your next hand during Clean-up), you'll reshuffle. This accelerates your cycling, enabling you to draw sooner the cards you've gained recently..
List of deck discarders
Cards in italics have been removed.
- Chancellor - archetype for this category
- Trusty Steed - also gains four Silvers when this option is chosen
- Scavenger - also top-decks a card from your discard pile
- Messenger - also has +Buy and a when-buy ability
- Bad Omens - also forces you to top-deck two Coppers
- Herb Gatherer - also has +Buy and lets you play a Treasure from your discarded deck
Rules
Putting your deck into your discard pile does not count as discarding each card individually; using this ability does not activate Tunnels, Faithful Hounds, or Village Greens.
