Notes

To edit these notes, go to Template:Sacred Trial notes.

  • Like the other Secrets that trigger when your opponent plays a minion from their hand (LegacyMirror Entity, LegacySnipe, LegacyRepentance), Sacred Trial triggers in the After Play Phase following the Battlecry Phase. This means that all effects and death processing related to the minion's Battlecry resolve before the game queues and resolves Secrets such as Sacred Trial. For example, if you have one minion and play Goblins vs GnomesDr. Boom, an enemy Sacred Trial will trigger.[1]
    • Sacred Trial, LegacyMirror Entity, LegacySnipe, LegacyRepentance and Mean Streets of GadgetzanPotion of Polymorph all trigger in order of play.
    • Sacred Trial triggers if the minion is mortally wounded (such as by Snipe) or pending destroy (such as by Snipe + The Grand TournamentAcidmaw). This is probably a bug.[2]
    • Repentance does not trigger if Sacred Trial sets the minion pending destroy before it.[3] (Before Patch 7.0, it would trigger even though the minion will die anyway.)[4]
    • Snipe does not trigger if Sacred Trial sets the minion pending destroy before it.[5]
    • Mirror Entity does not trigger if Sacred Trial sets the minion pending destroy before it.[6] (Before Patch 7.0, Mirror Entity would make a copy - that survives!)[7]
    • Potion of Polymorph does not trigger if Sacred Trial sets the minion pending destroy before it.[8]


Lore[]

Sacred Trial represents "a hallway filled with holy lasers and swinging axes", which the worthy can stroll through unscathed, while the unworthy are destroyed.[9] It is original to Hearthstone.
