Notes
To edit these notes, go to Template:Totemic Call notes.
- The four Totems that can be summoned by this Hero Power - Healing Totem, Searing Totem, Stoneclaw Totem, and Strength Totem - are usually referred to as the "basic" Totems.
- This Hero Power randomly chooses one of the four basic Totems the player does not already control, and summons it.
- Example: If a return effect such as Youthful Brewmaster or Sap is used on a basic Totem you control, you have a chance to summon another copy of it using Totemic Call. If you then play the Totem that was previously returned to your hand, you can have two copies of the same basic Totem on the battlefield at the same time.
- Example: If one of your basic Totems has been taken control of by the opponent, you will have a chance to summon another copy of it using Totemic Call since you do not control it anymore.
- After the player controls all four basic Totems, it will summon a random basic Totem, regardless of whether they control it or not.
- As usual, Totems will be summoned to the right of any friendly minions currently on the board.
- You cannot use this Hero Power if your board is full.
- If a player has this Hero Power, Justicar Trueheart's Battlecry will replace it with Totemic Slam, which allows to choose which basic Totem to summon without being restricted by the basic Totems already on the battlefield.
Trivia[]
