Notes
To edit these notes, go to Template:Sideshow Spelleater notes.
- This minion's Battlecry replaces the controlling player's Hero Power with a copy of the opponent's current Hero Power, whatever it is.
- Example: You can use Sideshow Spelleater to permanently copy replacement Hero Powers such as
INFERNO! and Mind Shatter.[1][2] - Example: If you use Sideshow Spelleater to copy a basic Hero Power, you can upgrade it as usual using
Justicar Trueheart.[3] - Example: If the opponent controls Hero Power-modifying ongoing effects such as Coldarra Drake or Maiden of the Lake, their effects will not be copied by Sideshow Spelleater, since they do not belong to the Hero Power itself, but to other entities.[4]
- Sideshow Spelleater does not copy Hero Powers from adventure bosses, in order to prevent this card from trivialising many challenging encounters.[5]

Trivia[edit | edit source]
- The artwork for this card comes from the World of Warcraft Trading Card Game "March of the Legion" series, for the card Bo'ja, Arcanist Absolute.
- Previously, using Shadowform to change your Hero Power and then using Sideshow Spelleater to copy your opponent's Hero Power would replace your Hero Power correctly, but would leave the Shadowform visual effect on your hero's portrait. Using Shadowform again to replace the Hero Power granted by Sideshow Spelleater would correctly give the hero Mind Spike once again, and not Mind Shatter.
- Prior to Patch 4.0.0.10833 (LoE patch), Sideshow Spelleater did not copy Hero Powers in Tavern Brawl.[6]
