bro i thought the deflection of fireball and rocket was an edit but then i realize he can actually do that…nah that’s broken as hell 😭😭

Monk is gonna be SO busted. Even without deflecting stuff, it’s still a 4 second shield that reduces 80% of damage, and the fact that he can protect units around him when the opponent plays a spell? The goblin barrel + Monk combination was a nice example And the knock back attacks can probably counter things like hog/ram rider and battle ram really well Excited to play with this card!

This would be so broken with balloon, since only projectiles can hit air units, not all decks run inferno or tesla, and the only unreflectable air units are zappable (inferno drag and bats). You could run oppressive counters on a balloon deck like earthquake to delete air targetting towers, drop a monk at the back and balloon the bridge, then zap or arrow any bats or minions while relying on monk to reflect ranged units.

Wow havent watched oj in a while; looking good and in shape brother!

After Duelling players using Monk on their Decks....well his too Broken, my man Monk is a one man Army at the Moment 💀... the Fact that he's: - ability costs Low Elixer - plus 100% dmg after Activation & - practically invulnerable against melee cards when activated - also pushback grounded Cards is Obnoxious (love this btw😁) + so a Quick Fix - - ability activation should cost 2 or 3 Elixer - remove his Invulnerability against melee cards when ability is active that way he's easy pickings when mediating (Deflecting ) - this way placement and protecting him takes priority & using ability wisely is key since Reckless Plays result in Punishes costing elixer (hence he becomes balanced without breaking him😙) - thus giving u a sense of satisfaction when u pull a clutch moment activating the Ability Love the Deflection Mechanic Very Useful 😁
