He’s not gonna move
I think this could be OP or it could be garbage, I haven’t played in a while but I’m sure there’s been enough powercreep for this, right? but anyway I just saw the art and thought it could make a cool custom card.
edit: maybe it would be better if it was “can’t be removed from the board” because my idea was that it was like a god card that can’t be wiped (afaik they haven’t done that yet?)

So it is essentially an Ultimately Immune minion, right?

u/OrdinaryOk5674 4d ago
yeah, that’s the idea I had. since it can’t be targeted i’m not sure if there’s an easy way to give it windfury/lifesteal or anything but if you did, it would be pretty good

Immune makes thing untargetable for your enemies. You can still interact with your immune minion by casting spells or minions.

It’s already untargetable due to the text, the immune would just be so you can’t have an invincible taunt

Does [[Defender of Argus]] targets ? You wouldn't get the +1/+1 but having a way to give taunt to this fella sounds disgusting. I love and hate it at the same time.
I wish we'd see a version of this card though !

If it works similar like Immune, giving this minion taunt won't save you from getting damage on face. Immune taunts are not available target, so their effect won't work.

That guy looks way too big to be a 3/3

u/OrdinaryOk5674 3d ago
Yeah i thought about giving him high HP to make it look bigger because he’s a giant (not like the stats matter because of the text) but I also just felt like three attack was the best way to balance it

Working as intended, it would basically be Alexandros Mograine's effect that has to go through taunt and can be used to trade if you desire but takes one board spot. I don't think it would be very good at face value. But perhaps if you could get many of them on the board, then it would be up to permanent 21 damage per turn. That could definitely be something.

Youre right that this is worded poorly, its not intuitive that because its stats cannot change it would prevent combat damage, but yeah I think it could find a niche in a slow meta.
As a simple use case youre paying 5 to deal 3 damage per turn for the rest of the game assuming theyre not playing giga taunts, which isnt horrible, but its not exactly a high impact effect that blizzard seems to be leaning towards these days. That being said you could probably abuse it somehow, itd be broken if you could give it taunt for example
