Card Design Competition #19: Help or Hinder
Week nineteen of our card design competition is live, and this week's theme is Help or Hinder. This week's competition involves creating a card which gives either a positive or negative benefit to your card's chosen race. Examples of cards like this in the game include Hungry Crab, Tundra Rhino, and Demonheart.
Winners get bragging rights, and a fancy avatar border on the site, so what are you waiting for? Go submit your card today! If you'd like to discuss this week's entries, head on over to the discussion thread. The contest is over on Wednesday, so get those entries in!
Last Week's Card Design Winner
Congratulations to YahOkay for winning last week's competition, Femme Fatale, with Siren of Naaru!
Hinder cards sound like a cool idea!
Super into Hinder cards
I was hoping the Paladin one mana 1/3 would win.
where is trump?? my lovely son
Yeah where is he?
The mechanic is...interesting, I suppose, although not very (how is it any better than some of the "gain armor when X" cards? Increasing max health isn't useful for any class without tons of healing once you've already taken some damage). But is it customary to put someone else's art on the card without giving credit to the original artist? Because the artist whose work is depicted on the card relies on that and other images to make money, and I sincerely doubt approval was given for its use. Also, since when do the Naaru have sirens? Sirens are typically creatures that lure people to their death with their songs, not beings of light and hope.
This card just goes to show how far creativity really gets you in these competitions... Put a small yet extremely creative idea on a solid minion, and you have yourself a minion worthy of making the finals. Spells have potential to get crazy too.
I'm hoping we'll see more submissions "outside the box" in the future (technically, the card rectangle is shaped like a box).
Summer is coming and still no new expansion news or even rumors....
Really liked last week's winner - I think my favourite part was that the art was very subtle and understated. It didn't play into the fantasy trope of an incredibly beautiful, underdressed woman, but is still attractive and powerful looking.
This week is shaping up well, but the amount of disqualified entries... smh.

Where is Forsen never luck ?
Siren is very interesting and original, alas, like most cool mechanic concepts in HS, it would be wasted by being a niche one off. Would be amazing to play a deck with many cards that focused on healing and building a massive health pool (which I guess is kind of what control warrior already does).
Where's DAD? BabyRage
What does "Fatality" mean?
yup
