Notes

• The Stealth granted by this minion's triggered effect lasts indefinitely, just like the standard Stealth ability.
• Lotus Assassin's effect will trigger once it reduces an enemy minion to 0 or less Health. This takes place before the Death Creation Step for that combat.

Strategy

It can be a better Stranglethorn Tiger sometimes, and benefits from Shadow Sensei quite well. Outside of this combo this card can destroy high- Attack minions and still be resistant to direct spells.

Keep in mind that the main counter for this card is AoE, such as Dragonfire Potion and Felfire Potion, or even Maelstrom Portal, combined with Spell Damage.

Quotes

Summon

None see the Lotus.

Attack

No witnesses.

Trivia

• This is the only known minion that has the ability to permanently regain Stealth after attacking.
