Downswing

Downswing (Red)

Target sword attack gets +1power and wagers with the defending hero. The winner loses 1life.

Rulings

From the Mastery Pack Warrior release notes
  • Downswing’s first ability is a targeted ability, which requires a sword attack in order to be played.
  • The winner of the wager loses 1life.
  • When Downswing’s first ability applies to a sword attack, it will wager whenever there is a defending hero. This includes attacks targeting allies.
  • The wager effect that Downswing applies to your sword attack is mandatory.
Older rulings (1)
  • The attacking hero wins the wager if the target sword attack hits; the defending hero wins the wager if it does not. This resolves in the resolution step as a trigger that all players can respond to.
    Changed 2026-10-30
    Since 30 October 2026 the wager is decided at the beginning of the damage step - if the attack has hit, its controller wins the prize, otherwise the other player does - before go again grants the action point. It is still a trigger players can respond to.
