Ok so I started off being very annoyed with discard-cards like Intrigue in hidden games, but for every time someone summons a card like Orc regiment, and I am able to discard that card, oh it just makes them worth it!
Since I play both hidden and unhidden games and I always choose random deck, I want to be able to have discard-cards. I just make sure I've got Militia or something so I can discard the discard-cards if I have to, and because discarding in hidden is so satisfying, I'm OK with the semi-useless uncommon.

How many of you have kept some discard-cards for hidden games?

I don't have any special decks for hidden games, so I usually end up with some discard cards on the rare occasions that I do play a hidden game. Sometimes it's annoying, but you're right that there are definitely situations where you're glad that you have it. I think my favourite use of discard cards in a hidden game is when you figure out that your opponent has a good card from them using renewal (at least, it worked really well when everyone was taking renewal in their decks, before it got a bit of a nerf).

I always use renewal targeting itself so that I give no information to enemy. and sometimes I use auxilia targeting a weak common and my opponent discards it using lich/intrigue. very funny.
