  • WotCOct 4, 2004

    Discarding as a cost to cast a spell will not trigger the ability. Only discarding as an effect will trigger the ability.

  • WotCOct 4, 2004

    If it is discarded, the damage done by it is done by this card due to an ability and not by a spell.

  • WotCOct 4, 2004

    The second ability will trigger even on an optional discard caused by an opponent.
