For Get Excited, when do you discard and target - when the spell is played or when it resolves?

Ruling: You target when you put the spell on the chain. The discard happens when the spell resolves, and you deal damage based on that discard.

Sequence:

• Target a unit when playing Get Excited and putting it on the chain
• Opponent can react at this point
• When Get Excited resolves, discard cards
• Deal damage equal to the discarded cards' power
• No reactions are possible once it begins resolving

Nuances:

• The discard is not a cost (it would need to say "as an additional cost to play me discard 1" to be a cost)
• You cannot react to Get Excited knowing its final damage amount, since the discard happens at resolution
• This works differently than other TCGs where similar effects typically discard as a cost
