Chain Lightning

Chain Lightning (Yellow)

You may play your next Wizard non-attack action card this turn as though it were an instant.

If you've played another Wizard non-attack action card this turn, deal 3 arcane damage to each opposing hero.

Rulings

From the Crucible of War release notes
  • Each defending hero decides if they want to defend the arcane damage they would take. They cannot defend the other arcane damage.
  • Chain Lightning checks if you have played another Wizard ‘non-attack’ action card this turn at the time it resolves, not at the time you play the card.
  • Chain Lightning counts as a card with an effect that deals arcane damage, regardless if you have played another wizard “non-attack” action card this turn or not. (e.g. if you activated Crucible of Aetherweave then play Chain Lightning, it would use up the Crucible of Aetherweave effect but deal no arcane damage.)
