Put to the Sword

Clarification : "Winning a challenge by 5 or more STR" means that the difference between the STR of the attacking player and the STR of the defending player must be 5 or more. Do not just take into account the STR of the attacking player.

Salem 4

When I trigger Put to the Sword, and when does the targeted character leave play? You would react to winning the challenge by 5 or more in part D of the DUCK acronym. If it initiates successfully (no cancel), it kills that character immediately. Your opponent could interrupt that death with a "Save" effect or a Benjen/Davos/Bastard Daughter - style leave-play interrupt, but the resolution of put to the sword isn't "delayed" in any way.
