Summoned minions[edit | edit source]
Notes[edit | edit source]
- The Treants are created by the Deathrattle granted by this spell, and not directly by the spell itself. This means that a golden Soul of the Forest will not automatically create golden Treants.[1]
- Unlike most Deathrattles, the new minions are summoned on the far right, not where the dead minion died.[2]
Strategy[edit | edit source]
Useful for when you have lots of minions on the board and are expecting your opponent to clear the board with an AoE spell card like Hellfire or Arcane Explosion.
Will stack with other Deathrattles and will also stack with itself; a minion affected by two Soul of the Forests enchantments will spawn two Treants when they die.
It can also be used in combination with Poison Seeds in Wild Mode to summon twice as many Treants.
