Hey! Long time reader, first time posting :D I love this game, and I've been playing it almost everyday since I got it :D
Anyway, enough about that. Question time! I was playing against Baron Blade, and he had his Backlash Field up. Now, he uses Hasten Doom, dealing 2 damage to all of my Heroes (I was playing a solo game with 3). The other two heroes were hit jsut fine, but my mr. Fixer had Driving Mantis out, so I chose to redirect the damage back to Baron Blade. Now, the damage was just redirected; does Mr. Fixer still get dealt 3 damage due to Backlash? I mean, he isn't the source of the damage (he just redirected it). In a way, BB dealt himself damage, yes?
An extension question! if for example ol' BB had BOTH Living Force Fields out, reducing all damage he receives by 2, and I redirect the 2, the damage gets reduced to 0, yes? Does that mean that (let's assume I DO get hit by the Backlash, even when just redirecting) I don't get hit for 3 anymore? Since I didn't deal him any damage anymore...
