this.
if we could lose stars, but not ranks, ladder would feel more fun and compelling, because there's less to lose: in the worst case, you just stall at your rank, up and down in internal stars.
Increasing the number of internal stars by 1 per rank would also help balancing out such a system where you can lose stars but not ranks (so that it's a bit harder to get past each rank).
ofc, I don't have statistics, but as a semi-casual player I know I'd enjoy such a system, and I'd play much more ladder that way, without the fear of having to go all the way back because I screwed a few matches.
It's even easier now that they introduce the Hero Brawl for competitive players. Ladder could stay in the middle of that and casual.

The Defend mechanic means it only has that effect when it's your opponents turn.
For example, one of their cards said: Defend: Has +1 / +1 and Taunt. Which means it gains those buffs only on your opponents turn.

Don't really know what my inspiration was, but here it is.

Did mine on Sylvanas, because she's my favorite character.
Sorry in advance for messing up any lore facts. But here is why I chose the following.
Sylvanas is part of a group called the Forsaken, and she has a "pact with the Val'Kyr who resurrect her upon death. This is also why I chose this specific Hero Power, and since you need minion death to activate this hero, her Hero Power is also consistent with this effect.
She has boasted many bows in her journey, but the one she has currently (if I am right), is called Deathwhisper. I chose the poison effect for her weapon because she is extremely deadly and efficient with these. You might be saying that the Poison effect is overpowered for a 1/5 weapon. But this hero only has 15 health, so it balances out.
Hope you all enjoy!

He played the "Summon a random Demon" and got Jaraxxus. And just when I thought I was doing fine, he played the "Summon a random Mech" and got Foe Reaper. This is a load of crap. I am 0-4 against this guy on Normal :(
