Minor bug/wording issue with "reprogram" card

[Dr. Chuckles]

I noticed that the wording on the reprogram card says you discard the cards you do not want, but if you are playing with green cards, it doea not activate cards that have effects when they are discarded. Not sure if it counts towards eviscerate either, but you should check that out too. Love the game, hope this helps!

There's absolutely no wording issue or bug involved here whatsoever unless you're talking about Sneaky Strike not refunding you after this (which I have not tried). Both Tactician and Reflex explicitly state "If this card is discarded from your hand..."

Sneaky strike, eviscerate, tough bandages, tingsha. Dem multiclass fringe cases.

Careless custom mod as well as Strange Spoon have the same issue.

I don't think reprogam SHOULD proc these card effects, as you're discarding cards that are not in your hand -- they are in your draw pile and not active yet. It would be too OP if you could proc discard effects from cards you haven't yet drawn.

You mean it would make a trash card playable in the right circumstances that's not even a normal run? LUL

Reprogram is amazing with Unceasing Top and quite good with All for One + Hologram (discard 0-cost cards and All for One, then draw All for One with Hologram--it can get first turn boss kills with a Turbo+ in there).

Even in general it's fairly good if you have any significant number of cards in your deck that you don't want to draw, whether they are things like voids and burns or just strikes, defends and curses. Sifting out bad cards can be as useful as drawing. If you have a lot of draw in your deck, it's a great pickup.

Or are you saying Sneaky Strike or Reflex is a trash card? Sneaky Strike is pretty bad without something to reduce the play cost or Necronomicon, yeah, and Reflex is even worse unless your deck is pretty heavy on the discards.

Fine, rather situational, not plainly trash.

You go ahead and keep having fun with it, but do me a favor and keep track of when having one less card in your hand bites you in the âss more than improving your upcoming draws helps.

Yeah, i mean the card cost is huge, and if you have few card draw is even worse
Same issue with turbo: i saw many positive opinions in that card and i saw many videos in which they are happy to pick even 2 and than excuse the card because they didn't draw well... It's really bad 95% of the times imho
