Sadly, as of six hours ago, the fun is over: Then, play the spell Dark Whispers, a Choose One card which grants a minion Taunt - but aim at your hero. Here's how the exploit operated:įirst, play Druid legendary card Fandral Staghelm, which grants both effects on 'Choose One' cards - which usually offer a pair of options to pick from. Regardless, it was clear the offending card was not working as intended.
Under all normal circumstances, it cannot be applied to a hero - doing so makes for a pretty ridiculous situation where you can't attack any minions at all before killing the hero, but killing the hero would then end the game. Taunt is an ability that forces your opponent to defeat a particular minion before attacking the hero, or any others. But video evidence of the eye-opening exploit remains.
This morning, Blizzard has sprung into action and fixed it. Using a simple technique, you could give your hero character the ability to Taunt. Yesterday, Hearthstone players discovered a card had gone wrong.
