Hello. I am new to the Quick draw card and have a question about replacing an upgrade with it. Let’s say you have 3 upgrades already, one of which is the Hidden Blaster (2 cost). You play quick draw and “replace an upgrade” to Zeb’s Rifle (3 cost). Are you paying 1 as stated in page 7 of the rules? Or do you pay the cost like it says on the card and spend 3? The rules make it sound like the cost to do this is now 1 because it’s modified using the replacing an upgrade rules, but if you just read the card it sounds like you are paying 3 because that’s the cost value on the weapon. I think I could agree to either, but perhaps someone has an official ruling on this? Thanks for your help!
Quick Draw and “replacing an upgrade”
When a card says "play a card" you follow the normal rules for when you play a card. So yes it will cost 1 and counts as your 1 upgrade per round. Also, if that weapon had ambush, you do gain the extra action, which is usually why you use that card.

Thanks. I thought so. I did that and my opponent on TTS disagreed with me and rage quit. I even offered to take the card back and play something different if he didn’t agree with my interpretation of the card. He rage quit on me.

Just some notes to explain more since OP seems a newer player:
You can play more than 1 upgrade per round. However, once per round, y
ou get to replace an existing upgrade and get the cost discount for the upgrade you discard. You can still play more upgrades, and even play an upgrade on a character that has 3 upgrades, but you'll have to discard one of those as normal, and won't get the replace discount if you've already used it that round.
