Banefire does not bypass Lich's Mastery [Fixed in 2.9]

By its wording, it should. Has anyone had it work successfully?

Banefire needs some love from the devs:
- it doesn't bypass prevent damage on player
- it doesn't get fully loaded by jaya's ultimate
- it's too expensive for what it does. It is so expensive that lava axe (common) became attractive to me

I mean, Banefire is objectively better than Lava Axe since it can hit creatures and deals more damage.  Lava Axe is pretty sweet in the post-HOU world where direct damage doesn't really exist in large amounts, though.

But yeah, this is just another example of a really cool mythic being destroyed by bugs.  *sigh*

Hi everyone, I've passed this information along to the team for review. Since there definitely seems to be some odd behavior with this card, I'll go ahead and add it to the bug list.

Hi Everyone. Banefire should successfully remove Prevent Damage starting in 2.9
