Notes
- The sheep is currently bugged, it won't do anything unless attacked.
- The Explosive Sheep appears as a common card in the Goblins vs Gnomes expansion of Hearthstone. The flavor text reads: "How is this supposed to work? Your enemies think, "Hey! Cute sheep!" and run over to cuddle it?"
- The idea of a sheep exploding is possibly a reference to Warcraft II, where rapidly clicking on a sheep multiple times will cause it to explode.
