As title says. If you use wild growth at turn 10 you get an excess mana card allowing you to draw. If you use jade blossom at turn 10 you just get a jade golem. Is this intended or is supposed to work the same way?

The effect is intended. On Wild Growth its meant to offset the fact it has no other purpose except for the early turns really; Jade Blossom contributes to golem progress and board control.
I think excess mana only works on cards that do nothing else. If you played Darnassus on turn 10 it wouldn't create excess mana, so why would Jade Blossom?
Because it gives you the Jade Golem still. Excess Mana was intended to give cards like Wild Growth and Astral Communion an use when you already have full mana. That's why Mire Keeper doesn't give you Excess Mana, you can choose to summon a slime, so the card still has an effect of some sort.
A better question is why doesn't Pilfered Power give Excess Mana. It's completely useless at full mana. Hearthstone is a pretty consistent game isn't it?
I guess a 3 mana: "Summon a 9/9. Draw a card" just didn't seem fair. How dare they!?
Because 1 mana summon a 10/10 golem and shuffle 3 of these cards into your deck is fair? lol. I was just confirming whether or not the effect was or wasn't supposed to be there, no need to get your panties in a twist.
Anyway thanks for the responses, i figured that was the case but I was just making sure. Does seem pretty stupid that pilfered power doesn't give excess mana, not that using that card made much sense to me to begin with.

Jade Idol summons a Jade Golem OR shuffles 3 copies of itself into your deck, not both (except if you have Fandral Staghelm on the board, but that is a combo).
i think it was brode himself who said that when they were testing wild growth they felt bad that it does nothing when you have 10 mana already so they added the excess mana mechanic to it. jade blossom does something at 10 mana so its ok. also on the bright side, if you topdeck jade blossom with 6-8 mana you can play it instantly if you have no better play unlike wild growth which can be a dead card until turn 10.

I'm well aware of this. He put forth a hypothetical salty scenario to make an argument about fairness, I just pointed out HS is anything but fair.

Because is has a second effect, thats why.

This is intended, would you rather have a powerful card in the late game?
or a broken card in the late game?
Summoning a jade golem is just as strong, if not stronger than a wild growth draw a card effect

My custom cards thread here (53 cards)
I believe it's a slight nerf on the card: use it soon or waste a mana crystal, since you can't get an extra card + big golem.
Besides, Wild Growth would be absolutely worthless in the endgame if you couldn't cycle it for another card.

1. Because this is Hearthstone, logic doesn't apply.
2. Because it has a second effect, wild growth doesn't.
if you cant figure out why time to deinstall hearthstone
