Alright, I have to make a choice so I'll go with Doom Shredder if the thread is advertised on the front page. Even though the feedback I've received was conflicting, the ones for Doom Shredder have been more enthusiastic. I consider "X is awesome!" to be better than "I think X is the best of your cards" since the latter could mean "X is the best of your cards but they're still all mediocre".
However I'm still undecided on which art to use. Here are the ones I have:
Do note that the last one has a different name more in line with Hallow's End.
I know 3 of them aren't actually Shredders, but there aren't that many shredder arts out there!
In case the front page post doesn't come up this time, it is safer for me to go with the non-meme card so I'll go with Venomfang Totem which received the most positive feedback. I still hesitate about making it 4mana 0/4 or 5mana 0/6. Some says the former is OP, other that it is fine.
I will start a new job this monday so I won't be on hearthpwn 24/7 like now.

I'd go with the last one. I liked the Doom Shredder idea, but not the name.
Behold, foolish interlopers! I am commanding this mortal to spread the will of the Scourge throughout the interwebs, encouraging you to seek out me, Archlich Kel'Thuzad! Now coming to you as the tenth class of Hearthstone!
I am a finalist in this Class Creation Competition, so if you could give it a look I would be greatly appreciative <3
Plays well to the 'swarm' theme of druid in the most recent expansion. Seems like good value and beast synergy, but susceptible to silence and Potion of Madness. Spider is Frost Widow and scarab is Scarab Beetle.
That's.... interesting. Very interesting. I am not sure how it would work mechanically though. ...Personally I feel it's too complicated for HS standards. What about making it "Poisonous. Battlecry: The first card your opponent plays next turn must be a minion, if possible."? Something like that?
@linkblade91 I like the card, but honestly i don't think it will recieve many upvotes, historically cards that odd are not very good received. Since has such a polarized effect, poisonous and is a beast, maybe could be a 1/1@
Well this isn't going well :( Would any of these phrasing-variants sound more appealing? The original is on the left:

I don't think this is possible for Hearthstone. In a simple case, what if you had 5 mana, with a 4 mana spell and a 2 mana minion in your hand. Does the game calculate that playing the 4 mana spell would make it impossible to play the 2 mana minion and not let you do it? Now for a really complex case: you have a Darnassus Aspirant and a minion with 3 attack, and your opponent has a Hunter Secret out. You have exactly enough mana to play your only minion. Are you not allowed to attack the with the Aspirant, because the Secret might be Misdirection which might also make the Aspirant attack your 3-attack minion, killing it and making you lose the Mana Crystal, and so you can't play a minion, although you could have before?
The complex case works even if you specify it has to be played first, so the other two options also have this problem. You could get around this by saying "At the start of your opponent's next turn, they must play a minion, if able"
I think Pet Lady is the most interesting of the three: she influences your deck-building strategy, and adds obvious strength to a needed archetype (Deathrattle Hunter).

I'm not sure why such a scenario would play out, with the Darnassus Aspirant. If you don't have enough mana to play the minion, then you are not "able" and thus can ignore the Battlecry. Hell, you could do this on purpose to get around it. As for the other example, if the phrasing demanded they play a minion first, it would only highlight minions as playable until they fulfilled the obligation.
*shrugs* Guess it doesn't matter. On to the next idea...

It wasn't really clear. It also didn't really go well with the theme this week. Poisonous felt really tacked on.
So I was tweaking my submission, and was torn on what to do between giving a creepy doll a ridiculous board clear that somewhat had a counter or one that was an inevitable ticking time bomb for Priests to survive longer.
Or would something else entirely different fit the bill?
Not sure about the stats too. What do you folks think? Suggestions would be great.
Thanks to all who gave feedback! It looks like I'm going with a modified Lord Stal, though I have two different versions I'm debating between.
One is just bigger with the same Cost while the other is cheaper to allow for Brann shenanigans. Which one is better? I like the potential for big Trolden moments with the Brann combo, but that might be too degenerate and undermine making it only copy twice, inconsistency or no.

Bump
I actually really like this. I'd go with the 7/7 just for the sake of making it more playable with a lower cost. Unearthed Raptor has prime stats in addition to a neat effect. The 7/7 has less than prime stats (though 7/7 was the vanilla way of a 7-cost), as we've seen cards like Fearsome Doomguard (EDIT: Why did I think this was a 7/8?). This makes me believe that a 7/7 statline with a good effect is justified. Is the name related to any lore?
