Okay, so I went and made my Pokemon and Legendary. The art for Izanami is temporary - I think the current one doesn't look goddess-y enough, and seems a bit too anime-like for hearthstone (found it after a quick google search). I realised that I'm taking a more oriental sort of route with the Medium, but I guess it was just what I was interested in (being chinese myself), and I felt that it worked better with all the spirit-y things going on in the mythology/folk tales, etc.

It kinda sucks that I can't have deathrattles yet, since a large part of the combos surrounding the class can be done with deathrattles, but that's just life, I guess. Deathrattles have so much combo potential...

Entombed Horror is Cofragigus, if you couldn't tell. It's a sort of moat-lurker effect. It's supposed to symbolise the dude attacking the unsuspecting tomb raider and mummifying him, as it is known to do. I really like the flavour of the coffin 'eating' the person, and spitting the poor soul back out. Mummy token - Mummy Zombie. Gotta change the wording on the card XD.

Izanami is the Japanese goddess of creation and death (I did some research), so I think the effect sort of suits her. You know, destroy (death) and resummon (creation). She's Ethereal because she's a goddess. It allows you to trigger deathrattles on your minions, heal them, remove buffs from enemy minions, and also triggers effects that depend on you summoning minions, like Wind and Water or Stonepeak Mystic.

Class: The Alchemist


The idea behind the hero power is that at the cost of the versatility you have to pay an extra mana. On the plus side you can stack the cards in your hand, they benefit from spell damage, and you get access to the Concoct class specific keyword!



This essentially allows you to empower your cards by investing in them on prior turns with your hero power. This leads to many swings within the game as you fall behind while stocking up on potions only to use them all at once to reclaim the bored with unfathomable power! You never know how games will turn out when an alchemist is involved. Concoct will always trigger if possible so a good alchemist will plan out their potions to get the results they want.


Bottled cards like Bottled Death are largely going to be removal with powerful Concoct bonuses. This makes it really hard to come back if they manage to get Putricide off on several potions, a sort of win condition for the control alchemist. While Concoct effects may seem a lot stronger than your typical 0 mana effect from other hero powers, it's an investment much like Beneath the Grounds and Corruption so that gives it a bit more power. Plus the effects are more so on the cards than the hero power!

I'm reposting this because my original post seemed to have been buried before anyone could give feedback (and I also updated a few things). Here's a reminder of my hero.

 

 Anyway here is a very early idea of what I'm gonna submit:

Dragonscale Greatsword: A powerful control weapon that can be used to gain armor by killing small minions or to heal a little when killing big minions but also has the possibility of being used as an aggressive deck's finisher.

Plated Dragon Armor: A strong defensive card that can turn a dragon into a large wall the opponent has to get through and also gains you a small amount of armor. (This one could also be +1/+3 and Taunt if the card is to weak I need feedback on this one.)

Strength in Number: A very power removal option as the game continues on and more Whelps get into the deck and I made it not able able to attack heroes to push a more control focus instead of a massive burst attack. (Although I'm thinking about reducing the cost to 4 but it depends on what others think is balanced.)

 Sky Serpent: A card that is strong should it be able to kill any minion as it doesn't need to attack in order to transform. (Needs balnce in stats I know. I was tired and as of writing of this I still am.)

Sitora, The Dragon Mother: A extremely powerful card that provides something early game but is mainly to get a Jarraxxus like affect that you'll see in one of the spoilers below.

Now here's the rest of the basic cards.

Dragon's Flight: Basic card that gets Whelp into the deck. Nothing more to really say.

Dull claws: A weapon that can become a stronger Fiery War Axe but I made sure you can't get it until the very soonest at turn 4.

Scorched Earth: One of the Dragons Knights few board clears and man does it offer alot of damge for it's cost however it has two downsides in 1. Dealing 6 damage to yourself but you get the benefit of having a (hopefully) clear board and 2. Killing your own board which is also a problem sometimes.

Heated Armor: The 1 cost spell that literally every class in game has it offers some ping damage and gains some health back should you kill something.

Scales of Gold: A card that helps give control some draw and encourages gaining tons of armor in a controlling deck.

Dragonstrike Commander: Big late game card that although doesn't put a lot onto the board instead allows for many more Whelps to be shuffled into the deck than what you might normally do.

Armored Wyvern: A basic example of how aggro would be played in this deck. Just think of it as a 3 mana 4/7 draw card for a easy to achieve requirement.

 

 Now here's the tokens for the other non-basic cards

(True Form also gains you 10 armor)

\

Sky Wyvern: Kinda iffy on this card as to whether this is interesting enough or not so I'm opening to any ideas with this one.

True Form: A late game win condition that isn't as op as Lord Jaraxxus's Hero Power as it takes longer to get less but the upside is that you keep your health and armor for the trade off of a less powerful hero power. I'm really curios what people think of this.

 

 Anyway that is my designed in 2 hours round two cards. Any thoughts or feedback on all of this as I appreciate any and all feedback. :)

Good cards!  My only feedback is on wording.

Toxic Muk is worded awkwardly compared to other cards that use your keyword. Concoct seems to be a passive keyword, so maybe "Concoct (1): If a minion damaged by Toxic Muk survives, destroy it."? Aside from the wording, it's a good and balanced card.

Advanced Study: Would this give Bloodmage Thalnos +1/+2, Malygos +5/+10, and Ysera +0/+0?

Decay seems unintuitive with spell damage. Does it take the spell damage from the turn you cast it and "lock it in"?  Does it use your current amount of spell damage each time it ticks? I think the spell is strong enough that you don't need it to benefit from spell damage, and I think it makes the card better for the basic set without the unneeded complexity.

@LarryMoments Love the theme and mechanics! Everything seems balanced. Owl Scout is on the strong side but that's fine for LoE.

Maybe replace him with something like:
3 mana - Deal 1 damage to all enemy minions. Any bonus damage they take is doubled. So if you play Sonar Scanner before this it'd deal 3 damage to everything.

Thanks for the Feedback Raptor (Aka: My Biggest Predicting Apprentice) and Turkeybag.

On a note side, Scene Illuminator was a thing I thought in mind with that competition where you made a worse version of a card that were usefull, but on a note, there´s a lot of synergy in there, and in my competition post, I also said also that is a worse Fireball but its effectivity can be increased a lot with its synergy, but on the other side, may be useless on a deck that doesn´t synergises, its not hard to balance, but later it can be realizable ;)

And about the Owl Scout, I HAD in mind of doing it at 1 Health, since I had in mind Twisted Worgen + Sonar Scanner, maybe a 2/1 or... 3/1 but I was trying only with the 2/2 though, definitively going for 1 Health, but not sure about the attack though.

Feedback to @Dxiled

I am really realising of what you want to do with your class, I understand it a lot, and I like the concept, I identify your legendary, its that guy of Skylanders ;),

Although I have a small complain of Skylanders Siggy, it feels a bit UP though on a side note, but I like the effect, maybe like a "Discover" thing? Feels tad risky but I like it, no complains (Did I just contradicted myself?)

Thats the only card I have an opinion, the other ones are pretty much balanced (That Brew Addict combo tho) although Firebloom Potion is a powercreep of Shadow Bolt, but since its almost like... err... non-fittable... its balanced in a way.

Quote from maxlot >>

Basically, I've got 3 variations currently, for my pokemon. I need help deciding on which one to actually use.

The two core aspects of Tsareena, for my class, is that she has Queenly majesty, both in an ability and in looks, thus making her a good Nobility card. In addition, her signature move is Trop Kick, which lowers attack. Controlling the board through strength is also a fairly big part of the class as well, which causes her attack lowering effect to work well with the class. Example...

Is this overcosted btw?

 Basically, the first card works with Epic decks, but doesn't have Trop kick. However, it shows off the value of promotions, allowing you to proc the effect with a rare minion as well as help to refill the hand. It's definately a good card for epic decks.

The second card goes all the way with the whole trop kick theme but doesn't show off my rarity theme at all, while this is the only card that I will have the oppurtunity to show off my core class concept on.

 The third card is a card that shows off both the themes of attack reduction and epic decks quite well, and it is an epic itself. It guarentees a little value of 2 attack reduction, comparable to shrinkmeister, however, it can be a lot more if you use promotions correctly and build your deck accordingly, she can give someone no attack for that turn, allowing for some insane value trades or a strong Display of Strength.

Also, how should I balance this card?

@Wishmaster333
Innate Sense - seems rather weak. You see two more cards but you don't get a card when compared to Mind Vision. I'd go the whole way and just reveal the whole hand.

Pouncey Sylderoy - Completely preventing minions from attack is very questionable as you could eventually give them a field of unusable minions and auto win. Think if rogue stole the card, brann and shadowstep would be enough. Same reason why nothing can set a minions attack to 0.

Defensive Rune - This card is really weak. It gives 2 stats to all your minions, same as Mark of the Lotus but for 3 more mana. Health is better than attack with a card like that unless your aggro and since it's basic maybe 2 mana.

 I don't know, I think knowing all the cards in your opponents hand would be pretty powerful. Sure, it would punish classes that inherently hold cards but people complain about stream sniping and such. Knowing all cards, I feel, is a bit too much for just one basic card to do. I think people underestimate how much value you get from pure knowledge. I'll make a few alternate versions and see how people react.

So, what do you all think is most fair for a basic card? Version 1, version 2, or version 3. OR something else entirely?

Also, what about this change to Pouncey?

Quote from futheadQQYB7N94V7 >>

OK so here is the updated version of my Pokemon minion-thanks to whoever recommended it  I've decided to use Sableye. In the story he robs enemies he defeats, so in this case every time it kills a minion he robs them of their gold!

 

My legendary is a redeemed Sylvanas. It is able to defend against most early threats and preserve an early lead, with Anticipate she becomes even more effective as a kind of sniper. 

@LarryMoments I'd keep Scene Illuminator as is. It's INSANELY powerful with a lot of your synergies. As for it being useless without the synergies, still better than fireball vs decks that just flood the board so it still has it's uses. As for the Owl Scout, I'd go for 2 attack since the debuff from him will let him deal 3 damage to whatever he attacks. If he had 3 attack he'd be a pseudo 4/1 stealth with his effect and that's a bit much.

@Wishmaster333 The reason I don't value seeing their whole hand that highly is because all it really does is let you know exactly what to play around and it's useless if they have no hand. People will largely only be using it to see what removal they have. You may be able to make risky moves by checking they don't have aoe but that isn't worth as much as you think given streamers often win against snipers who permanently see their hand and likely deck. Plus if you couldn't see their whole hand you couldn't be sure they don't have the removal your checking for so it'd make the card rather pointless in my opinion. With that said, the third option is the best!
