If Hand Destruction resolves and a player has 1 or fewer cards in hand, what happens?✓
Hand Destruction is activated and a player chains a discard trap to reduce their hand.
If either player has 1 or fewer cards in hand when Hand Destruction resolves, its effect disappears and no one draws.
Does Cross Porter trigger if it is discarded by Hand Destruction?!
Cross Porter is sent to the Graveyard by Hand Destruction's effect.
Yes. It was sent to the Graveyard by a card effect, so Cross Porter's effect can activate.
