First Expansion Card Spoiler #6 (Twisted Familiar)

[Unruler]

It can kill a 2hp ally in one turn, while brut can't, but unlike Brut,

How is that with same attack as Brute's?

Looks cool.

Can I just check. If TF is exhausted ie he has attacked for 1 damage. Can he then be sacked for the 2 returned resource?

No! After you attacked with ally, he's exhausted and you can't use abilities of exhausted allies. 1 dmg is low anyway.

EDIT: Ninja'd by mighty G.

EDIT: nvm...

Thanks....thought so.

I think there is some confusion about when he does the 1 ping damage - its only in response to -abilities- as i see it (not combat, like Deathbone).

You can however use his ability before attacking... So if he doesnt die from attacking u could sac him 'for free', as i read it.

Most useful situation i think would be to put down a ToK (shadow mage) or bazaar (zaladar) AND a garg on t3.

Or maybe in mid game as a kind of jewlwers dream... If he stays alive long enough.

Deathbone responds to his own death. It's not to do with combat.

Twisted Familiar will ping whoever deals him non-combat damage (unless they are the hero of its controller, as in the text). So as controller of TF, a "friendly" Evil Ascendant won't cause a ping to your hero but an enemy Evil Ascendant will cause ping on the opposing hero if it hurts this twisted little runt.

No. He dies when you use his ability.

Nope it doesn't. I didn't mean to say it does. It can normally deal 2 damages in one hit (1 damage to those who can't hit back), thus it can kill a 2hp ally who can hit back in one hit, while Brut can't without any other aid. Don't I understand right?

So two twisted familiars with same hp hitting each other will kill off each other? since A deals damage to B whose innate ability deals damage to A whose ability deals damage to B etc...

[ahmet476]

No, his passive only works against ability damage, not against combat damage.

[Zyraquis]

Ah isee, even worse than I originally thought. Don't think I will add it in any of my decks

[ahmet476]

I think it's only worse than Brutalis. Even then there is a deck that I want to play him with. Better than Carniboar and Dark Flayer.
