Ripclaw's Rip and Tear
Offensive Yes
Defensive No
Duration Instant

These cards act as a level # attack. If the attack is successful (i.e., the opponent does not successfully block the attack) then the card acts like an AI Special, forcing the target Character to discard a placed card. In some cases the chooser of the placed card to be discarded is the attacking player, and in other cases it is the defending player. If the text does not specify who chooses, then the attack character chooses. If the Character attacked does not have a card placed to him, then this part of the Special is ignored. Even if the additional AI effect is ignored, the attack still stays on the record of the attacked character.

Meta Rules

Meta #29 If a Special has the phrase "if successful", then the second aspect of the Special only takes place in the event that the initial attack is not defended. If the hit lands and is later negated, then the subsequent action is not negated if the result is no longer "on the table."

Meta #30 If a Special has the phrase "if successful", then the second aspect of the Special does not necessarily need to occur. It may not be possible to perform the secondary action. The secondary action may be specified as optional. However, if it is required and possible to perform the second action, it must be done.

Meta #122 If a Special has the phrase "if successful", and the secondary condition targets a Character, then the secondary condition only comes into effect if it is a Character which is targeted. If a Special or a Battlesite were targeted, then the secondary effect would not take place. If the secondary condition does not target a Character but affects the playing Character or the opponent, then the effect still comes into play.
