Lifesteal Your Lifesteal damages the enemy hero instead of healing you.

Well, that just sounds like damage with extra steps.

  • My first MatDF legendary, as well as the one I learned to hate the quickest

  • I'm sorry but this looks broken in DH, +8 attack on a 2 dmg lifesteal weapon makes this possibly a 20dmg combo in 1 attack

  • that is really powerfull in DH

  • how is it not a demon?

    • Il'gynoth is a spawn of the Old Gods. More specifically, it's a small piece of N'Zoth that also has its own conscience (just eldritch things).

      So, it's not a demon.

  • Life Hunters RISE UP!

  • I hope this is at least only good in combo. At best, this is a win condition for midrange demon hunters, because lifesteal isn't good enough to run in a faster build. At worst, this is a second four mana way for demon hunters to ignore taunt, which doubles as a damage multiplier with Aldrachi Warblades. Yeesh.

  • I love the madness the guys at Team 5 are bringing to the table, this would be for interesting OTKs.

  • Aldrachi Warblades + all the really gross ways to kick up your attack in one turn make this a ridiculous swing turn card.  I already hate it. 

    Friendly
  • Hm yes yes, it can definitely work with some interesting synergies... you can even do over 20 damage in one shot if prequipped Aldrachi Warblades

  • strong in constructed, would be very difficult to make work in arena
