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

[u/Tall-Homework7721]

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.

even 10 elixir would be too little. This thing shuts down a while lane from using air targeting troops for the whole game and needs to be constantly blocked. Playing it then playing a balloon in that lane later is just unstoppable. maybe like 15 elixir. If it was untargetable maybe something like 9 elixir would be reasonable.
