Notes

To edit these notes, go to Template:Power Overwhelming notes.

  • As of Patch 5.0.0.12574 (WotOG patch), the minion affected by Power Overwhelming will always die when the turn ends, even if (and no matter how many times) it is stolen before or during the End of Turn Phase.[1]


Lore

Power Overwhelming does not have any specific lore in the warcraft universe, although its character fits well with the warlock class. However, the name itself may well be a reference to Starcraft. In Starcraft, Protoss Archons says the phrase and it is also one of the game's cheatcodes, activating a godmode for the player's units, making them invulnerable to attack (but not kill instantly), which is ironic when considering Power Overwhelming kills the minion it is cast on.

Trivia

  • The artwork for this card comes from the World of Warcraft Trading Card Game "Drums of War" series, for the card Tinker Burnfizzle.
