When Teemo (2/2 Champion Unit) defends against Deadbloom Predator being played into Teemo's base, does Teemo have to recycle 1 rune for each hidden card that hits Deadbloom (triggering Deflect multiple times)?

Answer

Ruling: Teemo only triggers Deflect once against Deadbloom Predator, even though Teemo deals multiple instances of 1 damage for each Hidden card revealed.

Nuances:

  • Deadbloom Predator targets only one enemy ("AN enemy"), making it a single target even though it deals multiple packets of 1 damage
  • Deflect cares about targeting, not the number of damage packets
  • Teemo's damage targeting works like Split (targets are chosen for each individual packet of damage)
  • This creates an inconsistency where Teemo targets like Split but Deflect only triggers once because the source ability only targets once

Does this answer look correct?
