Notes
To edit these notes, go to Template:Moat Lurker notes.
- This minion's Battlecry destroys a target minion; this minion is then incorporated into the Moat Lurker's Deathrattle, likely by way of an enchantment. When the Deathrattle is activated, it summons a new copy of the destroyed minion.
- Brann Bronzebeard doubles the Battlecry, but since it does not double the Deathrattle and the Deathrattle only resummons one minion anyway, a Brann'd Moat Lurker still only resummons one minion.[1] Baron Rivendare works as expected.
- Despite the card's wording, the destroyed minion does not return to the board - the Moat Lurker's Deathrattle simply summons a fresh copy of that minion card. As a result, the minion produced will not have any enchantments, and will appear at full Health, regardless of the state of the minion that was destroyed. Since the minion is not played from the hand, any Battlecries will not be activated.
- Assuming the Moat Lurker's victim is stored in an enchantment or similar effect, it will be possible to remove it by returning the Moat Lurker to the hand, such as with Shadowstep. As with any card text, Silencing or transforming the Moat Lurker will also neutralise its abilities. Similarly, if a Moat Lurker is summoned through an effect such as Barnes or N'Zoth, the Corruptor, the Moat Lurker's Deathrattle will not summon anything, since the minion has no associated enchantment.
- If a Moat Lurker enters the battlefield without its Battlecry activating, it does not incorporate a minion in its enchantment; hence its Deathrattle will not summon a minion.
- Similar to cards such as Reincarnate, the Moat Lurker's Deathrattle summons the minion to the far right of the controlling player's board.
- The Deathrattle summons a copy of the destroyed minion on the side of the battlefield it was destroyed on, even if Moat Lurker's controller changes such as due to Mind Control or Sylvanas Windrunner.[2]
- If you copy a Moat Lurker with Unearthed Raptor, the Raptor's copied Deathrattle will also summon a copy of the destroyed minion. (Brann Bronzebeard gives the Raptor two such Deathrattles.[3] Duplicate Moat Lurkers created via Faceless Manipulator and Mirror Entity will also re-summon the destroyed minion when slain.[4][5]
