I don't know if I need to continue reading: this is pretty awesome.

Public Mod Note (linkblade91): Finished reading; still my favorite.

It isn't Halloween without a little Eldritch Horror, now is it?

This is my spooky abomination from an endless abyss of torment and suffering. This cute little guy dies, you either discard cards at random or draw cards until you have 3 in hand. It fits well into discard warlock decks, plus it is just a good 5-drop, something warlock kinda needs.

It helps you if you're behind on cards, but it can harm you if your ahead (unless you want to discard, that is), making it balanced and have synergy with other cards. Plus it's just fun flavor. Anyways, give it a thumbs up if you like it, or feel free to give feedback. I'd love to hear what y'all think. :)

@Link - I posted two different Blood Mages, one with 2 Health and one with 3 Health :) I know, easy to miss.

I prefer the original 3-health, to be honest. You're leeching your side of the board; I think he can get away with an additional hitpoint

Both cards are really impressive, but I feel like Harrow takes the cake with ease. Well done.

I think, if anyone had a problem with it, they'd quickly realize what Blood Dragon means. But yeah, I'll probably go with Harrow. Thanks for the review :)

Quote from joedarke7 >>

Here's my idea. Thoughts?

I like that it "transfers" to the next victim; that's pretty cool. But this feels like an awful lot going on for a 3-mana minion.

I did want to balance it around being a 2/1 minion. I thought 3 mana would be fair.

*shrugs* It's a question of whether or not you believe Lifesteal and the Deathrattle are worth 2 additional mana, if one were to compare it to Pit Snake.

I think 4 would be more balanced, but maybe that's not for the best lol. Balancing doesn't always equate to up-votes.

Rename this card "Grateful Dead" and you will have maximum flavor

Revised the ability so it requires you to attack instead of just dealing damage. Raised the cost, but also brought health up a bit to compensate for the need to attack. I think this version is about as balanced as this could get. I know some will likely say 6 health is better, but I believe it dies too easy at turn 5/6. I believe a sturdier body is justified by the attack requirement of the card.

Come visit my Card Emporium. Strange things, you will find inside...

Come take the test, if you're daring. Feel free to show me your results in a message.

Going with the Druids infestation theme this expansion, I thought something like this would work for them. Any thoughts?

He died for your sins and now he is back to haunt you.

I hope the reference to Boo from Mario is clear. :D

Oh, you actually weren't kidding back there (kinda). Well, when you mean directly, do you mean opposite? If so, for a Poisonous 1-drop it's not bad. The flavour is what disturbs me, but that's about it. I see it as I fine spooky card.

Well, I actually had other ideas, I even finished some, but ultimately, they felt meh. I wanted to do a Boo-inspired card, but I can't find suitable artwork, so I actually came back to Boo Bot in the end. x)

Directly facing means = | - or - | - where left side are the enemy minions. Kinda like in the chess event.

There is another Boom Bot art, so maybe I just use that. It could be any mech if I think about it, although the Boom Bot reference is kinda lost then.

As for your cards:
Ooz is too strong. 3 Poisonous minions for 4 mana makes Grim Necromancer and Webweave look pale in comparison. I actually like the token the most - without the mother card attached to it. Of course that would be too boring, but the artwork is really, really fitting and spooky. Maybe turn that into a card.

The other are kinda generic I feel. Nothing too bad and might even be interesting in other weeks, but for Halloween, they feel a bit too detached flavor-wise imo.

Its stats are probably off, but I'll float it out there. Wondering if the idea is inherently-interesting enough, considering I purposefully stuffed all three keywords into the card :^)

Vampire-Dragon who can instakill Deathrattle minions.

Nice card. You can probably turn it into a 2/8 (basing this off Scaled Nightmare).

@Zukuu I like the card, probably as others i will said the art doesn't look good. I not sure however why the Bot is the one who can't attack, at first i think that the enemy minions could'nt attack. Maybe you should up a little the stats to make a more important body.

@ffinderous Balnazzar is the most interesting, but at 9 mana feel too weak, probably should cost less to being more impressive.

@ScubaHelm I like the card art and the effect, the name not so much. I think it's balanced at that cost.

@CypherBenkes To be honest it feels slow at that cost, however i like a lot the flavor. The art also shouldn't look like a white alien from Alien i guess xD

@ihascorm Doesn't look very impressive or creative. The art also doesn't looks very hearthstone' ish.

Why not hijack the opponent's Lifesteal?

Might require additional stat balancing.

Fair to say, although then that's less healing ;P

As for your card, the stats seem fine to me. The art, though, isn't particularly "Hearthstone-y".
