Tainted Specter used to have errata causing the card to be put into the graveyard without being discarded. The current wording returns it to being a discard, so it will trigger abilities appropriately.

Price History
To study a single card is to glimpse the heart of a spell - a frozen moment of ambition, artistry, and arcane intent. Within each glyph lies a spark: a story untold, a duel turned, a destiny altered. Treat it not as mere parchment, dear seeker, but as a shard of the Multiverse itself.
