I like the Mana Golem. Makes the most thematic sense, 

Alright, I tweaked my card. Now, are you a candidate for the Light? Or for the Darkness?

This is a cool theme...

My first take on it I wanted to go with something based on the Shaman quests I just saw from 7.2 where Therazane helps you cleanse some Infernals/Abyssals. Seemed like a good combo between Shaman and Warlocks.

So we have not quite a 4 mana 7/7 but 5/6 in stats with a pretty decent effect on the board. I wanted to keep that same feeling of an abyssal dealing board wide damage but since it's a stitched card I wasn't sure if I should go with dealing the damage to ALL minions or keep the effect on the opponent's side.

With the overload I feel that I wanted to keep it as a fairly decent tempo swing in favor of the shaman/warlock player. I toned the damage down to be a fairly small board clear. It'll clear a good amount of stuff by the time you play it on curve or you can hold it for later in the game if need be.

Like i said, I'm still trying to figure out the balance between some sort of board clear, the overload cost, the stats, and whether or not it hits both sides of the board or not. I didn't want to do 1 or 3 since the other abyssals/infernals do that amount so I was trying to figure out where to hit the sweet spot for all of those things.

Also it's not perfectly consecrate since it doesn't hit face too. :P

I do think if I want to keep everything else the same at this point I'd probably need to do 2 damage to all characters at the very least. Shaman have enough healing to be ok with it while warlocks aren't exactly new to dealing damage to themselves.

Contemplating a different class combo hunter/warrior or Druid/warrior and different stat line. Thoughts? Thank you!

Brought back an old idea of mine as well as a new one. I really think Druid and Hunter could use some AoE and protections past taunt. 

Also, just to comment on the idea of muli-class secrets, you all are going to have to suspend your disbelief and imagine if all classes had secrets for them to have a chance. They are an interesting concept that should be allowed to be explored.

I find it hard to come up with a card that feels it belongs to both classes. Here's another idea, thoughts?

Considering changing the discovered beast to costs (2) less. Thoughts? Which do you like more? Thank you!

Last week's final and this new theme kinda left me with a little case of low enthusiasm - especially since i'm trying to find my way around class creation and two respective ideas i'm pursuing at the moment.

Conveniently though, i recently came up with a somewhat unique idea for a card that would comfortably fit within two classes in my opinion - here you go:

For this week I choose to combine my favorite parts of mage and priest together, which is spell generation and card copy. My spell this week does both of those things, which one do you think works better?

 

 You have no clue how broken that card is. Cabalist's Tome costs 5 and is RANDOM spells. "Spells from your opponent" are indefinitely better because you won't ever get shitty spells. You get a secret on top and all for ONE mana less. The second versions is more balanced, but I think the card isn't any fun to play against.

 After what you said I thought of ways to make the card more balanced and fair, so I changed it to the following. Hopefully this is a bit more balanced.

Aight, so this is inevitably going to be a complicated and silly entry, but it seemed too good an opportunity to pass up:

New Hero Powers:

Totemic Recruits:

 
The names for the new hero powers and the art for both the powers and the minions could probably be a lot better. The cost of the spell and  the stats of the recruits might also need adjusting (1/3 might be a bit much). And the upgraded version might be a bit unnecessary. And I'm uncertain whether the Totemic Recruits ought to have the Totem tag, and whether or not they should qualify for Silver Hand Recruit synergy (my current thinking is no on both counts). Aaand lorewise its all over the place. But mostly I'm just curious to see what people think of the idea before I spend time fiddling with all those things.

Tl;dr - combining Shaman and Paladin hero powers: dumb or fun?

I'll do my best to hit people back with feedback in return.

I agree, Stable Portal is awesome. You could knock it down to a 1-cost spell, and keep the discount at 1. I don't think it would be *too* pushed, considering that even when you discover a beast you can quite often be faced with three crappy options.
