14 DAY TRIAL // Two gamers decided to test the limits of Blizzard Entertainment's popular collectible card game Hearthstone by seeing what happens when you try to get a minion's health through the roof.
They discovered that nothing lives forever the hard way, as the video (available below) ends with a rather surprising twist.
What the duo did was play a Priest mirror match, in which Legendary minion Lorewalker Cho was involved. The card's unique ability makes it so that, whenever a player casts a spell, a copy of it is materialized in the other player's hand.
The Priest class has some pretty useful buffing cards that increase a minion's health and even double it, which meant that the two players could essentially double a creature's health forever, by casting the spell on their turn and having it copied to their opponent's hand, and then rinsing and repeating ad nauseam.
This led to an amusing situation where Lorewalker Cho's health steadily increased up to the point where it was over 1 billion, after which it was destroyed due to overflow when it was doubled yet again.
So, the key thing to remember here is that, when your minions are getting near 2 billion health points, you should pay some extra care when it comes to buffing them any further.
