Title: Goliath (withdraw heroes?)
Post by: emonier on March 20, 2018, 08:09:36 AM: Is Goliath's ability (sending heroes back to territory) considered to be a "withdraw"?

(WHY? Because there is a lost soul that can be under-decked if a hero is "withdrawn" from battle; I was just wondering if this would work with Goliath.)

Thanks,

E

Play As: Withdraw all Heroes (except giant-slayers) in battle. Negate band, draw and play abilities. Opponent may present a new Hero. Cannot be negated.

You've discovered a great combo! I've heard some people refer to that as the "Goliath" Lost Soul, although that is not the name is commonly called.

Thanks, I thought it would work pretty good.

God bless
