Rulings

From the Part the Mistveil release notes
  • Waning Vengeance triggers when it leaves the arena (for example, when it is destroyed, when it is banished, etc.). Whether you’ve pitched a blue card this turn is checked on the resolution of the trigger.
  • You will create a Spectral Shield token if you’ve pitched a blue card by the time Waning Vengeance’s trigger resolves on the stack, even if those pitched cards are no longer in the pitch zone (e.g. Potion of Deja Vu).
  • If this card is destroyed as part of applying its Ward prevention effect to a damage event, the Ward prevention effect from the Spectral Shield that would be created for this card’s triggered effect will not apply to that same damage event. This is because that Spectral Shield token has not yet been generated from the trigger resolving on the stack. When this card is destroyed as part of applying the Ward effect, the trigger layer will only be added to the stack after the damage event is finalized and players once again receive priority.

Keyword notes

Ward X - If your hero would be dealt damage, prevent X of that damage and destroy this.
  • Ward is a static ability that generates a fixed-prevention effect.
  • The prevention effect is not optional. It applies whenever damage would be dealt to your hero.
  • If another prevention effect reduces a damage event to 0, the replacement condition is no longer met (damage would not be dealt), so Ward would not apply.
  • The prevention amount applies to a single damage event. The leftover prevention amount does not apply to any future damage that would be dealt to your hero.
  • If the damage prevention can not be applied due to an effect, the object with Ward on it is still destroyed as part of the replacement effect application.
