Template:Holy Wrath notes

• This spell has two steps:
  • First, it deals damage to its target equal to the mana cost of drawn card, queuing and resolving triggers.
  • Then, it draws a card, queuing and resolving triggers;
• If the player's hand is full when Holy Wrath draws a card, this spell will still deal damage equivalent to the card's mana cost, despite overdrawing the card.
• This spell's damage is increased by bonuses from Spell Damage and Prophet Velen.
• If Holy Wrath draws a 0-Cost card it deals 0 damage, usually with no effect (for example, it will not pop Divine Shield).
• The interactions of Holy Wrath with cost-modifying effects seem to be inconsistent and should be verified again. More precisely:
  • Auras that modify mana costs (such as Molten Giant and Mechwarper) do not modify the damage dealt by Holy Wrath since both steps of this spell are inside of a Phase and Auras don't update inside of a Phase.
  • Even though it should work by enchanting cards in the deck to change their mana cost, as of Patch 7.1.1, if a Renounce Darkness discounted card is drawn by Holy Wrath, the full damage is done (as though it were not discounted). (Maybe this is because adding a new Enchantment recalculates mana cost immediately, but just drawing the card does not force it to recalculate its mana cost?)
  • If Shadowfiend is in play the mana cost of the drawn card is reduced after Holy Wrath will deal damage.
    • In older Patches, on-draw triggers activated before Holy Wrath dealt its damage, so this spell dealt one less damage.
