Hornet Sting Logic

New 21 Dec 2012 Asked by cali-born-again 9 Comments

Ok, something that annoys me: the flavor for Hornet Sting DOSEN'T make sense. What that card is saying is that a 1/1 soldier, armored and trained for war, can be killed by a bee sting. Are all tokens allergic to hornets? Also, said bee sting is equivalent to A. getting stabbed through the stomach (Gut Shot) or hit with a fireball (Geistflame). This would make sense if it were a GIANT hornet, but the art makes it quite clear it's normal size, and it looks pretty much like a normal hornet.


I think the flavor is not one but many hornet stings.
