Any idea how it would work with divine sheild minion getting hit? The minion would take 0 damage cause of the shield, but that 0 damage should collapse the shield, but this guy should tank that zero damage instead, preventing the divine shield from collapsing...? Am I taking this too far ?:D
edit: Nvm, watched the reveal video, meh.
I can't wait to run my Supercollider into this dude's neighbors.
Very situational card, I will be very surprised if this will see a lot of play.
something I never hear people say about this card is how well it synergies with poisonous taunt cards. one of the main issues people were saying is how this minion doesnt attack back when it takes it's damage, but if the minion it is protecting has poisonous then well that attacker is dead unless they have divine shield. giving a poisonous minion 8+ health is really strong in my opinion. and its not even just 8 health, since any overkill damage will not apply to the poisonous minion.
its not game breakingly good but still a really nice synergy in my opinion to do really well.
that face on the video - -
after reading a comment from a guy wondering what would happen if two of these are put together, i can already see into the future, the day when blizzard will say: "We are currently announcing the nerf for Snapjaw Shellfighter... From now on, this card will cost 6 mana..."
This is basicly a 8 health buff for any minions next to it. It’s pretty neat :o
It's potentially MORE than 8 health though. Imagine trading with your other minions till Snapjaw Shellfighter is down to 1 health, then send a rush minion into the Lich King. Damage negated
If i play two of these next to each other will none of them take damage?
The first synergy I thought of was Stubborn Gastropod in Arena.
Will she die imidiatly after allly gets hit by poison ?
If there is a Snapjaw Shellfighter between 2 minions, and she takes a Meteor.
Will she die immediatly from the 15 damage, or she will take the 2x 3 damage of the adjacent minions before dying?
How would 2 of these work next to each other?
The universe would implode
omg, now i really wanna test it out hahaha
wait, how does AOE work? This minion takes damage twice?
takes damage 3 times
Defile would be interesting with this card on board
This card disables defile next to a 1 drop
I don't know if it's good enough for constructed, but I like the idea.
