| − | '''Discard for benefit''' cards are those that, usually optionally, let you [[discard]] cards in order to get some other effect. If that effect is drawing, the card is considered a [[sifter]]. Some cards like {{Card|Scholar}} make you discard your entire hand before drawing cards up to a set handsize; these cards fall under the category of [[draw-to-X]].

| − | Discard for benefit effects can be used to reduce your handsize before using a [[draw-to-X]] effect or other effect that benefits from a small handsize (like {{Card|Diplomat}}). They can also be used to remove duplicate cards from your hand before using {{Card|Menagerie}}, or to activate on-discard effects like that of {{Card|Tunnel}}.
