Copy

From Hearthstone Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Copy is an effect which produces copies of existing cards. When Copying living minions, this includes Copying all damage and enchantments. However, when Copying a minion that has been destroyed, only the basic minion is copied. Additionally, whenever the term "new copy" is used for copying a minion, it refers to copying the minion without its enchantments or damage on it.

Copy effects are usually paired with a Summon effect, to summon the minion into the battlefield, or a Generate effect, to place the Copy directly into the player's hand. In the case of  Faceless Manipulator, an existing minion is instead Transformed into the copied minion, and with  Drakonid Operative, a copy of the opponent's card is instead Discovered.

Copy effects are most commonly available to priests and mages. Paladins and shamans both have cards that "return a minion to life" or "resummon" it; this is considered a Copy effect on the card that has just died, combined with a Summon effect.

Notes[edit | edit source]

  • Copy effects do not Copy in-hand enchantments, such as those from  Emperor Thaurissan or  The Mistcaller.[1]
  • If a card is copied, the copy will now retain enchantments, unless copying to a different zone in a "backward" direction.
    • Example: If a card is copied from deck to a deck, the copy retains enchantments. (eg.  Archbishop Benedictus)
    • Example: If a card is copied from a hand to a hand, the copy retains enchantments. (eg.  Mind Vision)
    • Example: If a card is copied from play to play, the copy retains enchantments. (eg.  Molten Reflection)
    • Example: If a card is copied from a deck to a hand, the copy retains enchantments. (eg.  Thoughtsteal)
    • Example: If a card is copied from a deck to play, the copy retains enchantments. (eg.  Mindgames)
    • Example: If a card is copied from hand to play, the copy retains enchantments. (eg.  Kobold Illusionist)
    • Example: If a card is copied from a hand to a deck, the copy does not retain enchantments. (eg.  Dead Man's Hand)
    • Example: If a card is copied from play to a deck, the copy does not retain enchantments. (eg.  Baleful Banker)
    • Example: If a card is copied from play to a hand, the copy does not retain enchantments. (eg.  Feral Gibberer)
