So I just played as Paladin against a Warrior who had two Acolytes of Pain on the board. When I used my Avenging Wrath and then ended my turn, the animation just stopped playing and as you can see here (in german) it only did 4 DMG. Thus none of the Acolytes died and I was mad :(
Sorry in advance in case I wrote anything wrong, english is not my native language :)
#Edit: 5 DMG (yeah I'm bad at maths)

5 damage, but yeah that is weird.
Whenever I cast avenging wrath against frothing berserkers, acolytes, or any minions with those "when damaged then" abilities I feel obligated to /sorry for the extremely long time the spell requires.
You shouldn't be playing Avenging Wrath with Acolyte or Armorsmith on the board.
Mill paladin best strat
That's not the point of this thread :)
True, but as a fellow Paladin player, I'm just trying to give you some friendly advice.
The war had 7 cards in his hand so it's totally legit to want him to overdraw since he's probably going to draw 4 cards (won't do the exact math here but that's what will happen on average).
I felt like doing some math!
I defined the outcomes as:
Win:
6 Hits on Acolytes, Burning 4 cards (counting draw)
5 Hits on Acolytes, Burning 3 cards
or Killing the Belcher
Draw:
4 Hits, drawing him full, and burning 2
1 Hit, only drawing 1
0 Hits, not letting him draw
and Lose:
3 Hits, Drawing him to full, only burning 1
2 Hits, He draws full on his turn
And the results:
Win: 30.87%
Draw: 34.69%
Lose: 34.44%
That's just the math, it's for each person to decide if this is a play they would make.
It looks like the warriors Armor is 2, so i think it's just a visual glitch, since when you cast Avenging Wrath he had 6 Armor, and it really looks like he's at 2 Armor, so i think the Side Tracker just has a glitch in it...
I dont know if its a glitch with Armor in general, it may need further testing
Well, looks like I'm not only bad at maths but also nearly blind, thank you!
