Card text
Each other player discards down to 3 cards in hand. The next time anyone gains a Treasure costing or more, gain a Loot.

Cutthroat is an Action-Duration-Attack card from Plunder. It is a discard attack and Loot gainer, but you can't necessarily count on it to perform those functions frequently: once you attack with it, it stays in play doing nothing until anybody gains an expensive Treasure such as Gold; once that happens, everyone who's played a Cutthroat gets a Loot card and the Cutthroats are finally discarded that turn.

FAQ

Official FAQ

• Loot itself is a Treasure costing or more, so a player gaining one will trigger Cutthroats.

Other rules clarifications

• See the Additional rules section for Duration cards in Dominion: Plunder regarding things happening "the next time".
• If you gain a Gold, that will trigger Cutthroats by all players (including ones that you already played). However, if the Gold gain causes you to play a Cutthroat (you gain one from Haggler and then play it with Rush), the Gold won't trigger the Cutthroat you just played (it triggers off your next Treasure gain).

Secret History

There were unrelated discard attacks that died prior to me trying this. This one didn't change though.
