Hello everybody! This topic is for discussion of our "F2P" mini-competition. To make sure that everything runs smoothly, we need to reserve the Submission Topic for submissions only. Everything else goes here. What is everything else, you might ask?
Rules or Process. Do you have a question about the competition's process? Do you need clarification about one of the entry requirements? Are you not sure whether your entry adhered to the rules? Ask here!
Feedback or Ideas. Do you have some ideas you'd like to run by others before settling on one? Do you need help balancing or wording your entry? Do you need help finding art that will fit your card? Or do you just want feedback from the community on your entry? You're in the right place! Remember, although you are allowed to make minor tweaks to your entry after you've submitted it, you're only allowed one submission per week, so make sure that you've settled on your card for sure beforehand.
Discussion! Do you have thoughts on other people's entries? Are there directions you don't like that you're seeing too many people take? Or directions you'd like to see more people take? Would you like to help others and contribute to a greater community understanding of Hearthstone card design and balance? This is where you want to be!
All of that said, please refrain from the following:
Posting TONS of Ideas. Discussion topics become an absolute mess if everybody is posting a dozen different ideas. Please post not more than 3 distinct ideas at a time. Any more than that and we'll have to delete your post.
Advertising Your Entry. Please don't pop in here just to advertise your entry only to never be heard from again. This includes only asking short, generic, or insincere questions like "Thoughts?" or "Do you think this is interesting?". Yes, getting feedback on your entry is one of the purposes of this topic, but we're not just here for other people to help you. We're here for you all to help each other. 12 hours after this competition begins, there should be plenty of other posts here for you to give specific feedback or for you to comment on a trend. If you post your entry for feedback after this time and do not also offer some form of substantial commentary, critique, or praise of others' work, you may find your post deleted.
Plagiarism. Many people post their ideas here before finalizing them in the submission topic. Directly plagiarizing those ideas to post in the submission topic yourself is absolutely not acceptable.
So, without further ado, have fun and get creating!
There should probably just be a rule against using Magma Rager altogether. The meme is too strong. Also, when you say "try" not to use Keywords that don't appear on Basic cards, was that a suggestion or an actual rule?
There are so many contests on the forum right now... But I like this one, and I'm glad they are using the Neutral Basics after using just the class ones. Time to dive through the list and see what we can make without making a card completely broken.
The first one is really simple, but could make War Golem playable, especially to new players or in Arena. Ironforge Rifleman is also notoriously bad, so I thought I'd try to make it better. Now, it's anti-Taunt tech. Is this too complex of a change for a Basic card, though?
what do you mean by free to play? do you mean bad? cheap? what?
We mean that these cards are literally completely free. Everybody has them by virtue of downloading Hearthstone. You don't even have to spend any in-game gold to play with them. That is all. =)
No, I don´t know how to do more than that, XP, although I am surely gonna to remove that gem.
PD: Do we need to use the same card art?
I would use the same art and name so we know which card it was originally. Also, nerfing Bolderfist's attack to counter priest makes it weaker against every other class.
Crap, now I'm almost regretting submitting Reckless Rocketeer because I think I actually came up with something interesting for Magma Rager.
Magma Rager's biggest problem has always been being painfully useless versus Mage. Now it actually kinda techs against many Mage decks. Also, it's made of magma.

Still really bad against Druid, Rogue, and especially Paladin, though.

Way better.

"For reasons that I hope are obvious, you may not just increase Magma Rager's Health by 1"
Well, how about I increase its Attack by 1 then ? It still sucks but at least now it's vanilla!

I dunno, I kind of really want to see people use it well. I think it's possible.
"Give it a little buff to make it more usable."
Now Boulderfist Ogre is a tech card against Priest!!
No, I don´t know how to do more than that, XP, although I am surely gonna to remove that gem.
PD: Do we need to use the same card art?
The joke is you.

Ok, new try, but had a new idea, how about this? Incentivates more the aggro

Me no like aggro, but methinks this is a good idea (LarryMoments). Btw I think "it" need to become "they" instead.
My current idea:
Question: Can we change the card art as well if we consider it ugly ? (lots of basic cards have unthematic and ugly arts)
