About this expansion

Thunderstone: Blade Trap Promo is a Death-Trap promo card for 2–5 players, with a listed play time of 45 minutes. Released in 2010, it adds a destructive new effect to the Thunderstone Dungeon Deck.

The card came with Wrath of the Elements from the FLGS. When creating the Dungeon Deck, players are instructed to add Blade Trap to their Death Traps, bringing this special threat into the game.

Blade Trap focuses on Heroes and their strength. Its effect destroys the Hero card in your hand with the lowest strength, immediately removing that card from your available resources.

  • Destroy the lowest-strength Hero in your hand.
  • Have the other players reveal the top two cards of their decks.
  • Destroy all revealed Hero cards except those with the highest strength.

This combination makes Blade Trap a notable Death-Trap card: it affects your own hand while also forcing the other players to expose cards from their decks. Revealed Heroes are compared by strength, with only the highest-strength revealed Heroes spared.

As a compact promotional addition, Thunderstone: Blade Trap Promo gives Dungeon Deck creation an extra card to consider. Include it among the Death Traps when preparing the game and resolve its Hero-destroying effect when it appears.
