Zombie Giant doesn't have the giant trait

Question

Harsk (tracker) doesn't get an enemy lore bonus without it :(

 

It's in the guy's name even.

Zombie Giant is another one of those cards with.... history.  Not a bug; just could have been done better.


I think Mike commented on this once... I think essentially it USED to be a giant, but it died and has deteriorated to such a point that it has lost all Giant traits. It's now essentially a rather large, slow, hulking undead bag. It's not strong enough anymore to hurt everyone at your location (typical Giant trait) but it is still massive enough to hurt you more if you let it (the discard from deck ability).

Definitely not a giant any more. The card game tries to be procedural with its traits: If it doesn't get a template's power (in this case, "smash everyone"), it can't get that trait.

If I had that card to do over, I might've called it "Giant Zombie" to avoid the confusion (that is, no one thinks a Giant Snail is a Giant). But it's fine as is.
