Shard of power +Llife infusion

**FaTaLiTy** · 03-02-2011, 03:53 AM

Played against a zalander deck and he/she played fire snake, then shard of power and then life infusion on the snake and then got 6 health. Is this a bug? i just figured that the shard of power would cancel the life infusion?

The life infusion effect was after shard of power effect so it should be fine. Not a bug imo.

Yeah, I think that's just game mechanics at work, rather than a bug.

Definitely not a bug, its just how life works.

While it's probably not a bug, the wording could be made clearer since the "Ongoing" keyword can confuse players into thinking it should override everything all the time. Maybe remove that and add at the end "when you play an ally".

I wish shard of power only work on allies that are on the field at the time it is activated.

Because sometimes I don't want it to lower the hp of my later dudes like plasma behemoth.... and I can't get rid of it either..... :/

Technically, and this is a long stretch, if your opponent was a Priest, decked Destroy Arms

, has it in his hand, you've decked Transference, have it in your hand, Transference

happens to pick Destroy Arms

, then probem-o-solved. See, simple.

So yeah, if you're decking Shard, you should be knowing full well how to properly play it or otherwise, don't deck it because it's not a simple card to use in PvP.

now the question becomes, will it let you destroy your own item? given that damage spells / abilities can only damage enemies even though they only state target.
