Hearthpwn

Wow! I hope Blizzard start introducing Brawls, from time to time, that include community made cards like those. Some of them look pretty cool to play with!

Use whatever art you want for the competitions, as long as it isen't offensive.

Using art from other games is perfectly fine, but try to refrain from using offensive symbols like swastikas and the likes.

Awesome!

I also strongly suggest using the Discussion thread. There is a ton of nice people (and a few less nice people) that will gladly help you with potential flavor, wording or balance issues.

The cards were intentionally made overpowered, to compliment the idea of the Arena Exclusive events. If we made them decently balanced, they would be unlikely to actually influence the Arena Metagame.

I know Loyal Companion would be the most broken shit ever, if it was ever allowed in constructed. But it kinda solves some of the problems that Hunter in arena faces.

@Lathy.

I mean, it is a directly stronger Vaporize, but the flavor and design is amazing.

And balance should (imo) be totally disgregarded in this specific competition, as long as it isen't completely out of reach. Like a 1 Mana card that makes all your cards cost (0).

 No its not , your comparing it to Mirror Entity while the other guy is comparing it to Vaporize

The damage is neglectable since your palying a deck that  wants to rush you down as fast as possible and wants full board control  

Now put both effects together  you both get a copy of the same minion and his minion dies thats the broken down version of this 2 mana card.

I'm with you on the Loyal Companion Stats, but a 2/1 feels super vulnerable to Mage, Druid, and Rogue, so being an Enchanted Raven with upside is okay thanks to arena.

I want Me Go Face! in constructed, lul. Deal with all these pesky cheaters and their voiddaddies, goddamnit !

Good job to everyone, as this was a difficult prompt to work around, I had some difficulty with it myself. I'm really liking the Siege Destroyer btw, good work on that.

Veteran Shooter should have been worded as "Your next hero power" it confuses like how it exists.

Hell, I think Kidnap could be a regular set card.  I like it.

Exactly what do you mean by 'regular set card'?  The reason I ask is because

In arena, it has more uses.  Removal is rarer in arena.  Sometimes, removing a buffed up minion for 8 mana is worth it.  This can remove a giant taunt off the board and allow you to go face for lethal.  8 mana is still a high price, but more worth paying in arena than constructed.

Outside of the arena, this card sucks.  8 mana is too high of a cost for a situationally good effect.  Sure it would be awesome to kidnap a Voidlord or a Lich King, but what would you do against an aggressive deck?  Are you willing to pay 8 mana to kidnap a buffed up Warleader?  The best target to kidnap against Murloc Paladin would be Tarim.  Even then, it's difficult to use that Tarim against the paladin.  Drop it at the wrong time, and you'll end up buffing their minions.  Any deck that uses synergistic minions like Inner Fire Priest would give you minions that are useless to you.  Draconid Operative is just stats if you don't have a dragon in hand.

Waiting for the inevitable comments about "HearthPwn going to shit" and "Get Fan Created Content off the homepage" from FrodoBagginYa.

Not everyone needs to enjoy every piece of content the site puts out. I know the Esports related articles only entertain a small fragment of our audience but people understand how to skip over stuff they don't care about.

I apologize that the Hearthstone team very rarely gives us stuff that's actually newsworthy about the game, believe me, I wish they were more active like during the beta and early release days. Due to that, sometimes it feels like there's too much of one type of content on the homepage but believe me when I say it, nothing has changed. We've remained pretty static with our "usual articles" for a while now so people can come to expect certain things on certain days. Outside of that, the Blizzard stuff is posted when it makes sense to and then we sometimes get extra stuff we get to share with everyone.

I try my best to space content out so people can read everything if they choose to and not feel absolutely bombarded. It's also important that stuff is staggered so we get people coming back and most importantly hitting multiple timezones so people globally have a reason to check the site again.

Things are going to pick up like crazy when the reveals start next week, and then decks will actually be interesting again so we won't have tons of hateful comments about there being not much innovation and that'll give us extra content to share again.

Good luck to all our finalists from this past week. There's some interesting cards, though we have a severe lack of Pepe.

i usually dont look at community created cards because its usually a bunch of nonsense. but after seeing some of these i hope a few of them will be implemented in the future in some way. kidnap, amber drop, and loyal companion are all cards id love to see made in the game, even for ladder games. 

also shoutout to u and the rest of the staff for dealing with the aids community of hearthstone and constantly updating this website, its the only way i stay up to date on the game when i have downtime from playing :)
