It says ‘when I DEAL skull damage.’ BUT The first entangled match 3 skulls assasinated my 4th troop even though it did NO damage. The second entangled match 3 skulls (its very next move) assassinated my 3rd troop even tho it did no damage (so much for 10% chance!) I feel the text really should be changed to ‘…when I match skulls’ - unless of course this trait is not working as intended so that an entangled assassin cannot cause damage with a 3 match and therefore cannot assassinate on that turn. For example, Wraith’s 3rd trait says ‘Inflict frozen when doing skull damage’ but if Wraith is entangled for a 3 skull match the troop does not become frozen ! ---

0 is damage, just not too much 😛 ---

i agree it should be spelled better or fixed. there is a lot of inconsistency in the spelling concerning skull damage, skull matching and taking damage in general, not only in this one case ---

When you’re entangled and do 0 skull damage to Bone Dragon, his freeze procs on you anyway. Definitely a few inconsistencies with skull damage/match effects and text. ---

fix the text. it is easier than changing the code to match a simple text (i just want a powerful trait that can kill while entangled really.) ---

Agree either the text should change or the code should change, it’s misleading. Easier to change the text. Better to change the code: ‘on attack’ traits shouldn’t trigger if you can’t attack. Related point / query: if your first troop is entangled, you match three skulls, first enemy is a Bone Dragon with its third trait. What happens? ---

Your first troop is frozen. ---

Agreed. I always have to make sure and play it safe against assassin. Very misleading ---

> [@Horse\_Cosby](#): > > Your first troop is frozen. My point exactly: that’s also a bug. The trait text says: Inflict Frozen when enemies deal Skull damage to me. If I am entangled, I am not dealing Skull damage on three matches.
