the unupped not powerfull enough?
consider using 2 rage potions on it.
it becomes 13|3, and hits an additional 26 damage for not dying.
-assuming it attacks after the spell got cast, as the text suggests.
a 3rd pot makes it 18|3, and it deals a total of 62 damage.
ditcher + momentum + 5 rage potions = 210 damage OTK,
using 7 , 2 , and 15 , in an unupped 7-card combo.
a 6th rage potion would increase the damage to 285.
Point well made.
I would fix this by not allowing Ditcher's ability to trigger when damaged by your own spells. I like the idea of a CC resistant creature, but I think the additional bonus of dealing damage to the enemy is OP, especially when triggered yourself.
Phoenix does nothing when he is targeted — his ability to revive is valuable enough.
