oh wow. I actually got in. 

Thank you, everyone who voted for me.

When this week started out, I was dominating the Submission thread; King of the Front Page, up by like 50-60% to the next closest card. I petered off hard. Sadness again :(

All well. Good luck to everyone who made it.

Congrats to all the finalists!

I really love Pepe for some reason, kinda like in WoW he's just charming and I can't help it. Being able to create some form of Adaptation deck for druid would be nice too.

Please please please don't vote for it JUST because of the art. Would you vote for the card if it wasn't Pepe, but some other fitting art? If so, fair, if not, please reconsider your vote.

@ Cheese - please don't ever use pepe again...

I'm not just voting for it for the art...

As I mentioned I'd like to see Druids develop an adaptation archtype instead of what we have currently with Jades and Aggro. I think it could be a nice mid-range option for them. This card gives them the ability to get something nice early to help them adapt into the mid-game with or it gives them something to stack buffs on mid/late game to give their final adaptations more options.

Ok Oto. Breath in, breath out. I've been making cards closer to a half year now I think? I never got to finals before 6.12, last week... And now I get a wild card? yay!

I feel like Dicaprio after getting his Oscar! I can't wait till I see the reviews, I still consider myself a newbie at this so I love every feedback I get on my cards, be it positive or negative!

(also thanks times a thousand to the wild card owner!)

Friendly reminder that posting on page 1 is generally considered a bad thing. While the early exposure is nice, sometimes many cards will have so many upvotes that it completely warps the scoring for those cards. As a result, not a single card on page 1 made it to the finals.

Woo! Second time in the finals.

Thanks to everyone who voted for my submission. Congrats to everyone else who got in as well.

Good luck ;)

First of all I would like everyone who voted for my card and it's nice to see first time finalists here too. If you like the card please vote for me.

Fun fact, when I was creating the card I couldn't think of a name for this card, so I used a name based on the artist's name. (And for those who want to know it, it's KrisCooper).

@NOVEX0R

I think you can post a gif if you remove the "v" at the end:

Yup

CG to all who made finals, there r some OP cards, but there r few very very good and interesting cards for once that i absolutely love, so good job guys! At leasts its not as one sided as usual :)

Ok, my thoughts:

Ultimate Preparation (2/5): The "balance" of this card was supposed to be "its a 5-cost card that does nothing when u play it and u use up your entire turn" ... ehm ... Preparation? Its even in the name of your card dude lol :D

Farseer Nobundo (1/5): Interesting concept with a very very poor execution ... there should be a limit for a one card per turn from this ability, not an infinite amount ... this is just purely broken in any deck ever. Obviously aggro comes to mind first, but it doesnt even have to be an aggro deck, when u are on 10 mana, u can easilly play 2-3 topdecks if those cards r better for the situation ur in with a midrange/control deck as well, since this card costs u basically 0 tempo given the stats it has.

Root (1/5): Im glad your card made it to finals honestly, it deserves some recognition, since u basically brought up this overlooked concept to light and many ppl took it and made cards of their own (especially in the other competition). But as i said before, im sad that your card is in no way balanced and thus will most likely not win. But again, good job bringing this concept to light, im sure we will see more of similar cards in upcoming weeks :)

Lord Victor Nefarius (5/5): DAMN! Amazing card, amazing flavor, good good good! :) The final form, after a bit of rebalancing, looks like a very solid card that will cause a mild nuisance for your opponent (and u), but no game breaking damage. Good job ;-)

Impossible Question (0/5): Im sorry, but damn do i hate "cant remove" secrets. Been done many times before and it just doesnt speak to me, other ppl seem to like it, so gj for making finals, but i do not like cards like these at all.

Pepe (4/5): I like the ability, its creative and interesting and shouldnt be too strong, given there aint that many adapt options for druid and u have to spend extra resources to even activate those premium adapt options. But i mean having it on Pepe is kinda cheap ... i would have liked this card to be good for the effect, not for the memes.

Animus (1/5): Nice flavor, but like ... this seems crazy. Basically almost all your spells will turn into Meteors or mini-Meteors (in terms of power, some kinda literally ... guess this card was why Hex was nerfed hahaha :P). This card gives such an insane value ... i dont think this would be healthy.

Tracker's Bow (3/5): 4/2 is a bit too good imho, considering the power of the deathrattle. I guess making another 3/2 or 2/4 weapon for hunter would be awkward, but it would be more balanced. Also as said before, kinda overused effect in these competitions.

Millhause Megastorm (1/5): Not a fan of this card, since it has almost "no" downside. Aggro doesnt rly benefits from this and in more control oriented matchup, u play this when in or near fatigue war to mitigate the value it grants to your opponent, seems a little too strong, considering u can negate the downside in most games.

Keeper Remulos (5/5): Simple, yet interesting. Provides value. Good card.

Eldritch Tome (3/5): Interesting card, looks like (probably) weaker Divine Favor for aggro mage. I have mixed feelings about this one, could be good, could be bad.

High Priestess ishanah (3/5): Another card i have very mixed feelings about. I want to say its ok, but is it? Your opponent would no longer be able to kill your big minions other than in one turn or with hard removal, since u could just full heal it with your hero power. This card would be pretty broken in arena, tho being a legendary, we dont rly take that scenario into consideration, but just sayin :D

Krizz Coppperwizzle (3/5): Yet another card i dont know what to think about :D i mean u are obviously the 1st one to benefit from it, but i suppose after one turn, it kinda resets the "draw state" doesnt it? So, is there a point to it other than "denying" your opponent one draw?

Silas Darkmoon (1/5): Cute idea, definitely would be interesting for some brawls probably, but as it is, its basically a deck attack, so no from me.

Nightbane (1/5): Hell no! It looks like a good idea, but this would be so broken lol ...
