Normally “Overkill” requires attacking a minion on your turn.
However, I experienced a player using BEEEES!!! twice on Linecracker, which made it gain 1280 attack and with Earthen Scales, they gained 2563 armor.
Could you please apply the Overkill effect as described above, that Linecracker only gets more attack by attacking a minion, not by being attacked?
Thank you!!
Overkill: Deal excess damage on your turn for a bonus.
For Overkill it doesn’t matter who is the attacker. It simply matters that it is your turn to get the bonus.
That’s why I’m asking to change it, this combo makes no sense. It’s gamebreaking. So an easy way to fix it is what I suggest.
Then go to the discussion forums.
This isn’t a bug, so it doesn’t belong here.
Or if it’s bothering you that much, run Skulking Geist…
It’s no more gamebreaking than any other one-turn kill combo.
In fact it’s less so, because they typically play Linecracker on the previous turn, so you have a turn to see it coming.
How did he gain 2563 armor from 1280 attack?
Oh, he used two Earthen Scales.
After running in to this many times now, I have decided that players that do not have skill or talent have to hide behind copious amounts of armor to win.
I do not have armor and ran a linecracker opponent from 27k+ armor down to 16k+ armor before I lost. Thank you Kel’Thazud and Obsidian Statute
