Deathlord is a rare neutral minion card, from the Naxxramas set.
Fixed bugs[]
- Prior to Patch 4.0.0.10833 or Patch 4.1.0.10956 (2015-12-04), Deathlord, like other put into battlefield effects, used to have a bug that made the minion put into play by its Deathrattle deviate from the expected order of play when it died simultaneously with other minions - it was usually considered the new oldest rather than new newest minion in such a simultaneous death (what actually happened was the summoned minion's relative order was determined by when it was generated (often the beginning of the game), rather than when it was summoned; therefore effects which summon newly generated minions rather than existing cards (Mirror Entity, Animal Companion, Hex, etc.) did not visibly produce this bug).[1] However, in all other circumstances (such as order of triggering of end-of-turn triggers) they had the correct, newest order of play.[2]
Trivia[]
- The artwork for this card comes from the World of Warcraft Trading Card Game "War of the Elements" series, for the card Aric Stonejack.
- Deathlords effect can be seen as a prototype of the mechanic later known as "Recruit", which was introduced almost three years after deathlord in the Kobolds & Catacombs expansion.
