The restore cost is the energy that must be paid during a player's restore phase to avoid draining or discarding a permanent. It is, by default, the cost printed at the top of the card, but it can be modified by effect either on the same card or on other cards.

  • If the restore cost is paid during the restore phase and the permanent is drained, it is undrained.
  • If the restore cost is not paid during the restore phase and the permanent is undrained and it shares a faction with it's leader, it is drained.
  • In all other cases, the permanent is discarded. This means that if the restore cost is not paid on a permanent that is either a drained or that does not share a faction with its leader, it is discarded.
