The Demon seed against Commander Ulthok interaction

Don’t know if this is a bug, so I’m posting it here in the Discussion forum instead. I was playing the warlock quest now that it has been unbaned, but I came across another warlock playing Commander Ulthok, so my next turn my cards will cost me health instead of mana. The warlock quest only requiers me to take damage in order to progress the questline. The problem comes when the quest doesn’t consider that cost to be “dealt” to me. I don’t know if this is because it needs to be part of the cards effect to deal damage or is it because It need to “originate” from a card I own (Haven’t come across any explosion trap or similar effects) so I have no refference for this.

Bug or intentional design?

This is intentional.

Cards that cost Health (or Armor) instead of Mana no longer count as “dealing damage.” That means, for instance, the player will still pay that Health if they are Immune or have Divine Shield. This change does not apply to spending Health instead of Gold in Battlegrounds (e.g., Leeching Felhound).
