Notes

• This spell has two steps:
  • First, it damages its target, queuing and resolving triggers;
  • Then, it heals your hero, queuing and resolving triggers.
• As usual, Spell Damage and Prophet Velen increase the damage dealt by this spell but they do not affect the amount of Health restored.

Strategy

This card has a higher mana cost than other cards that deal 4 damage to a minion (Stormcrack, Shadow Bolt), which is made up for by the additional healing effect; making this card more comparable to Jade Lightning.

When the opponent has lethal damage on the board, playing this card to remove a high attack enemy minion and simultaneously healing your hero can buy you an extra turn.
