Description[ | ]

Bloodbound Spell: Give your General +1 Attack.

Vaath's Bloodbound Spell is called Overload and increases his attack by 1. This buff can be dispelled though.

Vaath the Immortal is a heavy hitter due to being able to buff himself endlessly, which can make him a big threat to most small minions and other generals.

Strategy[ | ]

Having a few cards in your deck that can heal your general (like Earth Sphere) can work well to offset life loss due to Vaath's tendency to clear minions with his increased attacks.
Vaath is often his own win condition by making favourable trades with enemy minions and generals. There are several cards which increase attack and synergize with Vaath (e.g. Drogon, Cryptographer, Adamantite Claws, Vaath's Brutality, Bounded Lifeforce, Grandmaster Kraigon,...).
Vaath's attack buffs are easy to Dispel, and Vaath needs to be close to be able to attack. If your opponent maintains distance from Vaath, or inhibits Vaath's movement (e.g. Provoke, Stun), you will have a hard time finishing the game.
