Does an encounter card count as played for powers like The Claw that trigger on a played card?

A designer addressed this directly in the forum.

No. Encounter cards are selected and then revealed, not played, while flares, artifacts, and reinforcements are played. The Cosmodex corrects The Claw to refer to playing or revealing, so The Claw follows the player who revealed the matching card.
