If I play Mi-Go and then discard Cthulhu as my second card with only one Insanity card in my discard pile, does Mi-Go count as the second one, so Cthulhu wins?

Question

Accepted Answer

The strict reading says no. Mi-Go, and Golden Mead when it does the same, is not in your discard pile until its effects finish, so it cannot be one of the two. Some groups read the intent differently and let Cthulhu win, so this is contested.
