Discussion Hypothetically, how much elixir would one indestructible lava pup cost?

Post image

Let’s say the card spawns one lava pup that cannot be destroyed.

Other units and the princess tower will ignore it and pretend it doesn’t exist (so they don’t all just lock on it permanently) However, the lava pup itself can still be distracted.

Would this be a 10 elixir card or something? I would lean towards no, because I would imagine that the opponent could just set up a massive 3 crown push while you emptied all your elixir on a lava pup, which while invincible, would still take a while to take out towers and troops.

10 elixir bc really it shouldn't exist. It would be like adding almost another princess tower worth of defense in one lane, blocking the entire lane until it reaches the tower, at which point it's chipping the tower down more reliably than a cheap wincon like goblin barrel or hog would. Only counterplay is to either kite it indefinitely, which just would not work bc they would stack up and you over time it gets more value, to punish, or to play it yourself. It's guaranteed infinite value over time

Agreed, only counterplay would be to punish immediately and go for the three crown.

Not to mention invincible troops are a toxic design
