Give an immune minion taunt?

What happens if you give an immune minion taunt? Can your enemies minions never reach you ?

No, they can then bypass it as if it doesn’t have taunt.

Sort of like how a Stealth minion with taunt gets bypassed.

Well that makes no sense in the way the game works

It’s because taunt is in reality not a blocker, but a redirector of damage. So if it’s immune to damage it doesn’t redirect damage.

Yes it’s counterintuitive, but it helps because you don’t want to block the entire match.

It kinda does. Taunt means minions must attack it. Since they can’t attack it, the “can’t attack this” overwrites the “must attack this”.

They pretty much had to make an exception to the rules, otherwise that combo would be way too strong.

Ya’ll are right! I admit defeat! Sometimes I can’t think logically. It’s why I’m a horrible player. I appreciate the insight

It’s ok my friend. Most of us here thought the interaction worked the way you think when we first saw an immune minion. Many of us tried the interaction and lost a game because of it. At least you asked first before losing a game. So, technically, you’ve got one up on most of us lol
