Notes

- Ancient Curse's triggered effect has multiple steps:
- First, it deals damage, queuing and resolving triggers;
- Then, although not stated in either card's text, the card self-destructs and is removed from the game;
- Finally, it draws a replacement card, queuing and resolving triggers.
- Like all on-draw effects, Ancient Curse will only activate when it is successfully drawn into the player's hand. If it is overdrawn due to the player's hand being full, or is discarded by a card effect or
Tracking, it will be removed from the game, and no damage will be dealt and no card will be drawn.
- Ancient Curse can be cast as a spell (for example, copies created by Chromaggus or Thoughtsteal) but it does not have any effect since the copy itself is not drawn.
- Similarly to all other on-draw triggered effect, although being a spell, Ancient Curse does not have its damage increased by either player's Spell Damage or Prophet Velen.
- However, as with all other spells, damage dealt by Ancient Curse will trigger Hallazeal the Ascended.

Lore
This section uses content from Wowpedia.- Shades are disembodied spirits and are similar to ghosts in that they are the spectral remains of a once-living person. These often restless spirits are mostly found in the Plaguelands, other undead-infested areas, and the village surrounding the mysterious tower of Karazhan. Because they do not have a real body, some shades are immune to physical damage.
