Healing Events

Healing effects work by creating and resolving Healing Events:

Spells and effects with two steps (like Light of the Naaru Light of the Naaru Set: Goblins vs Gnomes Type: Spell Class: Priest Rarity: Rare Cost: 1 Abilities: Restore Health, Summon Tags: Damaged-related Restore 3 Health. If the target is still damaged, summon a Lightwarden."Light it hearthstone , Moonglade Portal Moonglade Portal Set: One Night in Karazhan Type: Spell Class: Druid Rarity: Rare Cost: 6 Abilities: Restore Health, Summon Tags: Cost-related, Random Restore 6 Health. Summon a random 6-Cost minion.Ain t no party like a Moonglade hearthstone and Lay on Hands Lay on Hands Set: Classic Type: Spell Class: Paladin Rarity: Epic Cost: 8 Abilities: Draw cards, Restore Health Restore 8 Health. Draw 3 cards.A grammatically awkward life saver.See this card on Hearthpwn data page] Lay hearthstone ) resolve the Healing Event before they query the target`s condition (e.g., if the target of Light of the Naaru Light of the Naaru Set: Goblins vs Gnomes Type: Spell Class: Priest Rarity: Rare Cost: 1 Abilities: Restore Health, Summon Tags: Damaged-related Restore 3 Health. If the target is still damaged, summon a Lightwarden."Light it hearthstone is damaged) or move to their next step.


Creating a Healing Event

Each Healing Event has its own source (usually, the healing effect that created the Event; notice that, in the case of Power Word: Glory, the source of the Healing Event is the enchantment created by the spell, not the spell itself), target and proposed healing:

Then, if the controller of the source of the Healing Event also controlled an unsilenced Auchenai Soulpriest Auchenai Soulpriest Set: Classic Type: Minion Class: Priest Rarity: Rare Cost: 4 Attack: 3 Health: 5 Abilities: Modify Hero Power Tags: Damage-related, Healing-related, Hero Power-related, Ongoing effect Your cards and powers that restore Health now hearthstone since the last Aura Update (Other) Step or controls the enchantment created by Embrace the Shadow Embrace the Shadow Set: Whispers of the Old Gods Type: Spell Class: Priest Rarity: Epic Cost: 2 Abilities: Modify Hero Power Tags: Damage-related, Healing-related, Hero Power-related, Ongoing effect This turn, your healing effects deal damage hearthstone , the Healing Event is prevented and replaced with a Damage Event: this Damage Event has the same source and target of the Healing Event and has a proposed damage equal to its proposed healing (for additional details, see Damage#Advanced rules).

  • Example: If a player with an Auchenai Soulpriest active casts Tree of Life all characters will suffer damage equal to their maximum Health, usually causing them all to die.
  • Example: In combination with Auchenai Soulpriest, Mistress of Pain will instead deal damage to the controlling player; be that as it may, since that damage is counted as damage dealt by the Mistress of Pain herself, her effect will trigger again and again until the controlling hero is destroyed.

Then, if the the source of the Healing Event is a Hero Power or a spell (notice that this does not include the enchantment created by Power Word: Glory) and its controller also controlled an unsilenced Prophet Velen Prophet Velen Set: Classic Type: Minion Class: Priest Rarity: Legendary Cost: 7 Attack: 7 Health: 7 Abilities: Modify Hero Power Tags: Damage-related, Healing-related, Hero Power-related, Ongoing effect Double the damage and healing of your spells hearthstone since the last Aura Update (Other) Step, double the proposed healing of the Healing Event. Multiple Prophet Velens stack, each one doubling the proposed healing.

At long last, the character`s current Health Health, sometimes referred to as life, hit points or HP, is an attribute found on heroes and minions, reflecting the remaining survivability of the character. Health can be reduced, almost always by taking damage. If hearthstone is increased by the Healing Event`s proposed healing, up to but not beyond its current maximum Health.


Resolving a Healing Event

If the Healing Event was prevented or if it did not change the character`s current Health, it will not run any triggers.

Else, on-heal triggers (listed in the following table) queue and resolve in play order.
