• If I have Mack the Knife (COTA 302) with two damage on it, can I use Mack the Knife’s “Action:” ability to deal 1 damage to Mack the Knife to destroy it, and still gain 1 Æmber?
  Yes. The damage and the Æmber gain are part of the same ability. Once an ability on a card has started to resolve, that ability will finish resolving even if the card leaves play.
