Description[ | ]

Sentinel: Spell cast.
Whenever your opponent casts a spell, this minion gains +3/+3.

Interactions[ | ]

The order that spells and Sentinel effects trigger can be confusing. Moonlit Basilysk can survive lethal in some cases, and be destroyed in others:

Natural Selection is a single target spell that will kill a minion with the lowest attack stat. If Sentinel was not triggered, it will flip, get the buff, and then get destroyed.
Frostburn will trigger Sentinel, buff Basilysk and then apply the damage.
Daemonic Lure will deal the damage first before the Sentinel transforms resulting in a 5/5 Moonlit Basilysk.
Phoenix Fire will not kill the Sentinel, but instead produce a 5/5 Moonlit Basilysk.
Plasma Storm will kill the Sentinel since it is treated as a 2/2 'base'.
Lasting Judgement transforms and then kills the Sentinel.
Ritual Banishing doesn't kill any Spell Sentinels. So the Watchful Sentinel will transform into a 5/5 Moonlit Basilysk.
If Flawless Reflection is used on an opponent's Moonlit Basilysk it will trigger and buff Moonlit Basilysk of course but transform all surrounding minions into 2/2 Basilysks.

-Sentinel effect priority can be confusing to trigger. Moonlite Basilysk can survive lethal in some cases, and being destroyed in others. Magmar Aspects has 2 comon faction cards that may kill/buff untriggered Basilisk: Natural Selection and Plasma Storm.
-Natural Selection is a single target spell that will kill the minion with less attack stat or tied to the lowest. If Sentinel was not triggered, he will trigger, get the buff, and then get destroyed.
-Plasma Storm is and Area of Effect spell that will kill every minion with 3 or less Attack stat. This will trigger Sentinel, buff Basilysk and we will remain after Plasma.
-Same happens with Frostburn of Vanar, it will trigger Sentinel, Buff Basilysk and then apply the damage.
