Snecko is a normal encounter found in Act 2. Its usage of Icon Confused Confused combined with its ability to make the player Icon Vulnerable Vulnerable may make it appear to be a strong encounter, but many higher-cost decks will benefit from the Icon Confused Confused and defeat the snecko easily. Lower cost decks, however, may have a more difficult time.

Pattern

  1. Perplexing Glare
  2. 60% chance of using Bite, 40% chance of using Tail Whip.
  3. Repeat 2 until end of combat.

Snecko cannot use Bite 3 times in a row.

Tips

  • Because Snecko inflicts Icon Confused Confused, higher cost decks(such as those using Perfected Strike) will actually benefit from the debuff rather than suffer.
    • Decks that rely on low-cost cards can instead negate the Icon Confused Confused debuff with any source of Icon Artifact Artifact.

Trivia

  • The name 'Snecko' is a combination of the words 'Snake' and 'Gecko'.
