since the exodar is not dealing the damage, but the protocol is, why doesnt it deal dmg to the hero
its the exact same kind wording on kalimos
show me where the exodar says it deals dmg, ive read it 5 times
kalimos doesnt say it deals dmg either

Huh, weird
No clue what is going on
an inconsistency when comparing proto calls to Invocations would be my best guess, the proto call must actually have Exodar dealing the damage otherwise shudderblock shouldn’t negate it
Hearthstone at its finest
so because you can only launch it once, do you also not get 3x armor if you choose the armor protocol?
Shudderblock only prevents battlecry cards if trying to deal damage directly to the opponent’s hero. Since armor gain is not dealing damage, you would get 3x the already 2x armor for the health of the spaceship, or 6x times the spaceship health as armor.
It should deal dmg though, if kalimos can deal damage, why cant the exodar?

wrong question, “why can’t the protocal”
we(people who read the cards) already know shudderblock prevents the damage that the Exodar does with a battlecry
so why cant the protocol deal dmg?
what makes it so different from a invocation?
cant even spell protocol correctly lol
I didn’t say it couldn’t, blizzard did
I never said it shouldn’t either, again they did
I would have been fine with it being that way from the start(If to meta dominating a nerf or rework to as is now) maybe then shaman starships could have been a real deck
so your just here to say nothing and be of no use, i can fix that
no use?
this was my initial comment/interaction, just pointing out that hearthstone is very inconsistent
and then
I was simply being picky with his choice of words(and hearthstones) providing the information that the protocol(happy I spelled it right this time) doesn’t say what is dealing the damage and hearthstone considers the Exodar to be doing the damage so shudderblock negates it.
One interesting thing to think about is why it doesn’t allow to deal face damage
One obvious reason could be “so it doesn’t deal a quadrillion damage with a single battlecry”
Yeah
But it wouldn’t anyway, since you can’t tripple the effect of the Exodar
The battlecry both checks if you are building a starship AND launches it.
So at the time of the second battlecry, you are no longer building a starship and it simply fizzles.
Not a single protocol can be trippled with shudderblock because of that.
You just get scammed for free with the damage protocole where the first battlecry is not allowed to deal face damage
