Editing Sentinel (section)

==='''Minion''' Sentinel===
In general minion sentinel interactions follow this rule:
*If your minion's [[Opening Gambit]] (e.g. [[Lavaslasher]], [[Bloodtear Alchemist]], [[Arclyte Sentinel]]) is manually targeting it will kill the sentinel, the effect works on the sentinel itself pre-transformation, so the sentinel dies and doesn't transform. 
*But if the Opening Gambit is automated (e.g. [[Dancing Blades]], [[Sunset Paragon]], [[Blistering Skorn]]) it will deal the damage after the transformation.

There are also interesting interactions:
*[[Sandswirl Reader|Sandswirl Reader's]] Opening Gambit on a [[Freeblade]] returns a [[Watchful Sentinel (Vanar)|Watchful Sentinel Token]] to hand, but you still get a Freeblade on board and it switches places. If you play the returned Watchful Sentinel Token from hand, it won't transform because it is only a token and not a real Freeblade anymore.

* [[Transform|Transformations]] won't trigger Sentinels. This includes cases such as a [[Build]] minion finishing building, or an [[Chrysalis Egg|Egg]] hatching.
