Thought i was smart in crafting this for a Kingsbane deck so that i only had to run one leaching poison. Oops. I guess it draws the leached kingsbane but i haven't got that far with the deck.
First of all Leeching Poison gives Lifesteal, meaning the card itself does not have it, so that's why Countess Ashmore does not draw it, second of all since Kingsbane does not have Lifesteal automatically, and gains it through Leeching Poison, Countess Ashmore draws it because it has Deathrattle
Yeah i should have checked first. i thought i was a genius for all of 5 mins until i played the card. O well. I'm sure I'll find a use for the Countess at some stage in the expansion.
Does she draw both obsidian statues if you have two in the deck? One for lifesteal and one for deathrattle? Or will she even have both keywords ‚checked‘ if she draws one?
Not sure yet. I assume it looks for a rush card, draws it, then does the same for the other 2. As long as you have the cards available in that order it should work.
Was just wondering would it be better to replace Ooze for Harrison Jones (if you have him ofc.)?
and what about Vanish and Hench-clan, or do they not fit in?
And Angry Chicken what rank are you?
Only recently crafted Harrison so probably worth replacing ooze with him. Never thought about Hench-clan but it's definitely powerful enough for any rogue deck. Like i said before, vanish should probably be in there somewhere. Maybe try cutting 2nd Doomerang or 2nd Bladefurry.
From what i understand, the win rate when you draw Leeching vs when you don't is substantial. Most people run two copies just to make sure they have it when they need it and use the other one for the 2 healing with their hero power when they didn't draw Kingsbane or for 2 mana card cycle with Actioneer. If you're only running one Leeching then you probably need to run two auctioneers just to make sure you have it in time. Try it if you like.

Don't mind me just passing by

I have a question regarding her, too.

I guess i can never run more than 1 Cursed Castaway as i could draw both instead of the kingsbane. And no BM thalnos either.
Thanks for the info. I might craft her now ^^
only draws cards with the actual effect, not simply the text.

In fact, here's a list of cards that Ashmore won't draw (at least, it shouldn't based on how I understand the card works):
Lifesteal:
Rush:
Deathrattle:
** = card is exclusive to Wild.
