Also, just found this one (I updated his link to use the codexcarddb site):
[quote=“sharpobject”]Armor reduces damage, even if it is dealt in the form of -1/-1 runes, or dealt in the form of turns you must skip, or dealt in the form of stealing your gold. There might be some confusion from the overloading of the term “damage” to mean both the event where a thing is harmed by a certain amount AND the stuff that is left on the thing afterwards to keep track of how alive it still is. Armor reduces the former thing, which is the only way to get the latter thing, but doesn’t always result in the latter thing.
I could say “This works the same way as in mtg” but that would be pretty unhelpful.
This card also has armor piercing when attacking though!![/quote]
