Who takes Slaughterclaw's spike damage, and can champions prevent it?
The designer answered this on BGG, and the official adventure book sets the spike damage on the player.

The player takes it directly, not minions or champions, and champions cannot prevent it. When you damage Slaughterclaw, you take the total cost of its spikes, and Twisting Bolt works the same way.
