Ugh challenge 6. Time to remake a few cards :P
I feel the challenge voting polls are lasting way to long. Most people seem to be already finished their basic sets before the challenges are even chosen. Worst case if someone missed the poll is the get the most popular challenges without their vote and that's not a big deal.

Glad for having made it with all you guys! Here's a little  reminder of my class, the Pyromaniac:

As a quick reminder, the class is all about unstable spells. That is to say, very powerful spells with a controlled randomness to it. There's also some Spell Damage (featured mainly in the Hero Power), OTK/combo potential cards and control with very powerful spells. 

I'm still missing two more. Can't wrap my mind around what is missing though. Maybe some cheap AoE-damage spell. I'll be giving feedback back.

Okay guys. Here's a rough draft... 

The inspiration for absorb came from the idea that Mystics, in addition to being seers, aspired to 'absorb' the holy and become one with God. Thus, their minions take the power of spells thrown at them and turn it into something else (and yes, if an opponent spell kills the minion, the effect DOES go off). Combine a bit of clairvoyance, religious fervor, and a desire to harness magic, and you get my Mystic class.

Basic Set (8/10)

Not crazy about the art for lucky OR charm... but yeah. rough draft is rough. 

Okay... Twist of Fate should probably be 6 mana, hahah.

Charm: cmon dude! i had it first :D

Original version	Current version (goin with Hack n Slash for #6)

Focus Mind: i dont like this for arena at all, would be suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuper strong. Probably even better than BoK, since you can play it on your 2-drop on curve and snowball from there.

Twist of Fate: i like the idea of it, but again, the buff part is a little too strong. Especially given how versatile this card is. But mby it is balanced by the fact that you "have to" know what card you have on top of your deck, so it technically costs 7 (+cost of your hero power)?

Rest of the cards seem good.

GAHHHHH my bad xD that's the thing about the "Deceptively Simply" challenge...  but yeah, I was also considering an attack debuff so I'll go with that ;D So Charm would be 1 mana "Reduce a minion's Attack by 2."   Balanced?  The idea is that sometimes you're gonna want to use it on your own minions for Absorb.

Def think I'll move Twist of Fate to 6 mana.

Kind of ironic that I'm having trouble with my Basic set when I made the guide. But if I follow my own advice, I should finish it with minimal problems. That said, I do have a few changes.

• Future Sight has gown to 0 (down from 1) to meet the first challenge.
• Sand Attack has been added.

 Yeah, this is the first time we've tried the voting thing and we weren't sure how popular it would be, so we wanted to have a nice long time for people to vote in order to really separate the challenges. We'll probably be dropping it to 2 days for the next phase, and see how that feels.

Now, my Basic Set! As a reminder, here's my Hero/Hero Power/Keyword

The main themes for my class are 0-Attack minions and synergy, buffing minions, and Attack/Health swapping.

I actually had around 15 options for Basic cards ready to go, depending on what challenges were chosen, and I've narrowed them down to these 10 for now. Let me know what you think of them, and if you think any should be replaced!

Going off of Demon's very helpful guide, I have:

Single Target Damage (2): Banger, Diffusion of Power (situational)
AoE (2): Herbal Remedy (friendly), Mash (situational)
Card Draw (2): Incense, Pet Project
Removal/Neutralization (3): Diffusion of Power (situational), Mash, Rapid Acid

Oh, and as I said I would, I chose "Bangers and Mash" as my phrase for "Nuts // Bolts". Zephyr Construct is my "All or Nothing" criteria, and 6 of my cards have 2 lines or less.

I remember Conceal, but I plan on giving my class some ways to spawn cheap minions (which rogue doenst really have). And yeah Conceal went to wild. I do agree that it feels wrong to have two cards with the same effect and different cost though. What about making it give one minion stealth for one mana? (like Finicky Cloakfield)

I personally think that Emerge is ok at 1 mana. Or isnt it? Its basically a conditioned Blessing of Might or Power Word: Shield...

The phrase I went for is "Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust."

Here we go; Here's my new set, with changes. Need some help though.

or...?? Which Hero Power should I use? I don't want it to be better than Lesser Heal or Armor Up!, but I don't want it to be abysmal by only giving 1 Armor.

Token:

• Behind Schedule: Has gone through lots of iterations. The 5 delayed damage reflects a 1-mana discount. Used to shuffle a Burrowing Mine equivalent into the deck before drawing.
• Cannon Fodder: The status of this minion as damaged is important, as it prevents it from being targeted by Truefire Rocket. An alternative card to this was a 5-mana spell "Restore a minion to full Health. Deal 3 damage to all other minions."
• Goblin Technosapper: 4/5 or 6/5. I feel like this is a good replacement for a basic minion (as opposed to "At the start of your turn, gain Armor equal to this minion's Health."
• Hit the Ground: This class will have bad removal, so this is worse than Meteor, but deals 15 damage overall.
• Marked for Scrap: If it dies next turn. That means you can use this on a minion you know will die next turn, like an enemy Doomsayer, or a friendly Taunt that's outclassed by your opponent's board presence. It's not the same as Mortal Coil!
• Parachute Protocol: Meant to be a reference to the Piloted Shredder mechanic. I hope this doesn't count as putting Deathrattles into the basic set. If it does I have an alternative card (help with balance?)

  • 

• Piercing Round: Your opponent has 4 Armor and 1 Health. You have no other source of direct damage except for this one spell. A normal Darkbomb would leave your opponent at 1 Armor and 1 Health. But this leaves your opponent at 4 Armor and instead puts them at -2 Health.
• Running Fast: Not much to say on this one!
• Spiked Bracers: A simple replacement for Engineer's Pantaloons, which was seen as too OP. This instead gains you 3 more Armor than Iron Hide at the expense of thinning your deck. Perhaps underpowered?
• Truefire Rocket: Made this 2 mana instead of 3 for balance.

Any idea for a name ? Im drawing blank :/

Any of these help?

Quote from LarryMoments >>

Oh just a question, do cards with clarification words (Like Mark of the Wild +2 Attack/+2 health) count for the 3rd Challenge?
