Card Description
Trigger when hit

Maw Jaw is a Miniboss type enemy that the player can encounter in the fight against The Toothy Shades.

As of v1.1.0, activating the Titan Bell will cause an upgraded version of it to spawn. Its upgrade is randomly selected from the list:

• Acorn Charm
• Battle Charm
• Sun Charm

Strategy

Maw Jaw has a respectable attack stat that becomes much more threatening due to its Reaction, causing it to trigger whenever hit by anything (an attack or an Item). This ability differs from Smackback in a few critical ways. Maw Jaw will not trigger specifically against a card on the field that attacks it (instead attacking normally and hitting the front card in its row), but it also triggers when hit by Items, which Smackback does not. Like all Reactions, Maw Jaw's Reaction can be negated by inflicting Snow or Ink, allowing these decks to mostly trivialize the fight. If there isn't a lot of Snow or Ink available, time it carefully to get the most attacks on Maw Jaw possible. Maw Jaw also still has a normal Counter and attacks as time passes, even if not hit. Snow prevents its Counter from counting down, but Ink does not.

Trivia

Maw Jaw is one of only two cards that naturally have both a Counter and a Reaction, the other being Warthog. Certain Leaders also may have a Counter and Reaction, but they are rare.
