Voltbound Duality (Yellow)

Voltbound Duality’s activated ability can only be activated from your hand. To activate this, show Voltbound Duality to all players, then pay the cost of and discard it.

When activating Voltbound Duality, you must target a hero as it is a targeted effect. When this activated ability resolves, you will deal 1 arcane damage to that targeted hero. Then you will create a Lightning Flow token, this is not conditional on dealing damage.

When resolving Voltbound Duality’s activated ability, there is no priority between any of the effects generated (e.g. dealing arcane damage, creating a Lightning Flow token).

Discarding this card to pay the cost of activating its first ability counts as activating an instant ability, not as playing an instant.

If the targeted hero no longer exists when Voltbound Duality’s activated ability resolves on the stack, you will still create a Lightning Flow token.

Effects that prevent damage from a chosen source (e.g. oasis respite) cannot prevent damage from the activated ability since the damage source is a card in the graveyard which is treated as a different object.

Replacement effects that increase the damage of action card effects will increase the arcane damage dealt by Voltbound Duality’s instant activated ability (e.g. Flicker Wisp).
