I didn't see a thread like this anywhere, so here it is.

So as the title implies, I was thinking about some absurd buffs that could be made to existing cards that would completely break the game. And I thought it was kinda funny to consider those things, so I made this thread just for fun: How would you buff an existing card, in a way that it would become completely insane?

The only rule is: Nothing silly allowed. It would be easy to just say "buff lightning bolt to 30 damage" or "change Shadowstep to: Your opponent immediately concedes". But where would be the fun in that? Let's at least try to make it sound plausible.

I'll start slow:

Mana Wyrm - "Whenever you cast a spell, gain +1/+1."

Ice Block - "Whenever your hero suffers fatal damage, prevent that damage and become immune until the end of the turn. At the beginning of your next turn, restore 10 health."

Tracking - "Discover 3 cards from your deck. Choose one to discard. Draw the others."

Far Sight - "Draw a card. That card costs 0 until the end of turn."

Eviscerate - "Combo: Deal 5 damage to a minion and the enemy hero."

Acolyte of Pain - "When this card is dealt damage, draw cards equal to the damage dealt, up to a maximum of 3."

Angry Chicken - Change its stats to a 1/3.

Flame Leviathian 7 mana 6/9 - When you draw this deal 4 damage to all enemy characters. Did I do it right?

Flame Imp - 2/3 instead of 3/2

None of these change the mana cost or stats of the card.

Mysterious Challenger: "Battlecry: Put one of each secret from your and your opponent's decks into your battlefield."

Knife Juggler/Flamewaker: "Whenever you summon a minion/play a spell, deal 1 damage to a random enemy minion."

Deathwing: Battlecry: "Destroy all of your minions and discard your opponent's hand."

Alexstrasza: "Choose One - Set a hero's health to 10 or 20" (yes I know that's a Druid thing, but oh well that would be insanely good).

Shadowflame: "Destroy a minion and deal it's attack to all minions on the board."

Naga Sea Witch: "Both players' cards cost (5)."

Icehowl: "Can only attack heroes and ignores Taunt."

Majordomo Executus: "Battlecry: Replace your hero with Majordomo Executus" [Majordomo in hero form has 7 health, his hero power summons 2/2 Ragnaros' Sparks that cannot attack and deal 2 damage to a random enemy at the end of your turn. He has "Deathrattle: replace your hero with Ragnaros the Firelord", who is still the same.]

Malorne: deathrattle: summon malorne

Troggzore the Earthenator: if your opponent casts a spell, fill your board with trogs (not exact wording but you know what i meant)

Savage roar: all allied characters gain +X attack, where X is the number of friendly characters.

Mysterious challenger: put 1 of each secret into play (not pulled from deck, not just pally secrets)

Whirling zapomatic: windfury and stealth

Übertaker:

1/2 - 1 mana
Whenever you summon a minion, gain +1/+1.

 To be honest, I don't think this is much of a buff. Most of the time you want to hold on to the card for a certain situation (i.e. Lightning Storm). And Eviscerate is definitely overboard.

Micro machine: At the end of every turn give this card +2 attack.

Quote from Ihmo >

Well, you could tune your deck around it and play it alongside Ancestral Call (or whatever the name of that card). Boom, ramp shaman plays Boom on turn 2 with coin.

 

These are more gimmicky and annoying than flat out OP, but I thought it would be more interesting this way.

Ancient Mage: battlecry: Give ALL your minions spell power +1

Grim Patron: whenever this minion takes damage, summon a Grim Patron

Lorewalker Cho: whenever a spell is played, but a copy of it in your hand

Coldlight Oracle: battlecry: the opponent draws 10 cards

Totemic Might: Give your totems +4 attack this turn

Drain Life: swap your hero's health with your opponent's

Mind Control Tech: battlecry: if your opponent has 6 minions, take control of them

Mana Wraith: battlecry: all spells now cost 10 mana

Far Sight: look at your opponent's deck; you have five minutes to take your turn

I posted this in the corrupt card contest, but it works here too.

Dr Nuke(super charged Dr boom):9 mana 7/7; Fill your board with 1/1 Nuke Bots (warning: they may explode)

Nuke bot: 1/1; charge; Destroy Nuke Bot at the end of your turn; Deathrattle: Deal 1-4 damage to a random enemy

If your gonna do it. Do it right. 

Savage roar - 3 mana. Give your characters +2 attack this turn. 

Then make a card for 6 mana that summons 3 2/2 treants. That would be OP

Yep.
