Discussion Topic Rules
To make sure that everything runs smoothly, we need to reserve the Submission Topic for submissions only. Everything else goes here. What is everything else, you might ask?
Rules or Process. Do you have a question about the competition's process? Do you need clarification about one of the entry requirements? Are you not sure whether your entry adhered to the rules? Ask here!
Feedback or Ideas. Do you have some ideas you'd like to run by others before settling on one? Do you need help balancing or wording your entry? Do you need help finding art that will fit your card? Or do you just want feedback from the community on your entry? You're in the right place! Remember, although you are allowed to make minor tweaks to your entry after you've submitted it, you're only allowed one submission per week, so make sure that you've settled on your card for sure beforehand.
Discussion! Do you have thoughts on other people's entries? Are there directions you don't like that you're seeing too many people take? Or directions you'd like to see more people take? Would you like to help others and contribute to a greater community understanding of Hearthstone card design and balance? This is where you want to be!
All of that said, please refrain from the following:
Posting TONS of Ideas. Discussion topics become an absolute mess if everybody is posting a dozen different ideas. Please post not more than 3 distinct ideas at a time. Any more than that and we'll have to delete your post.
Advertising Your Entry. Please don't pop in here just to advertise your entry only to never be heard from again. This includes only asking short, generic, or insincere questions like "Thoughts?" or "Do you think this is interesting?". Yes, getting feedback on your entry is one of the purposes of this topic, but we're not just here for other people to help you. We're here for you all to help each other. 12 hours after this competition begins, there should be plenty of other posts here for you to give specific feedback or for you to comment on a trend. If you post your entry for feedback after this time and do not also offer some form of substantial commentary, critique, or praise of others' work, you may find your post deleted.
Plagiarism. Many people post their ideas here before finalizing them in the submission topic. Directly plagiarizing those ideas to post in the submission topic yourself is absolutely not acceptable.

There're more Mage Dragons (Coldarra Drake and Sindragosa) than Paladin Dragons (only Dragon Consort), but none of those Mage Dragons has an effect that interacts directly with other Dragons and the Paladin also has Nightbane Templar so I've decided to ban Paladin instead of Mage for this competition.
Remember also that Warrios has one Dragon related card, Alexstrasza Champion, but no Warrior dragons! Hope you enjoy this week theme :)
This seems even slower than Rotface, which doesn't see any play and might never, so I don't think it's undercosted at all. I'm also not a big fan of these random generating effects, but that's just my personal opinion.
I had this laying around. It's funny how the last cards I made for Warrior were all fit for like half of the most recent WCDCs.

God dammit, I had a Rager card ready to go and you just uppercutted me.
Whatever, it's not that bad.

Well, it's a good thing I've been making a Pirate themed expansion, so I've come prepared. I've been developing ways for the non-weapon classes to use Pirates, and here is the first batch of ideas I've come up with.
Firstly, is an early game card for Druids. So when I was making my non-weapon class Pirates, I wanted to find a way for those classes to get use out of Pirates. So what I did was create a token weapon. The 1/1 Flintlock.
This is a 1/1 weapon, so it can only be swung once. This can be useful for two things: 1. You can ping off a minion, or 2. Hold the weapon to take advantage of the weapon Pirates abilities, like Southsea Deckhand. Alternatively, you could just draw a card with her in the late game. An extremely useful 1 drop.
Next, I've made a collectable version of Captain Cookie! This Captain Cookie is designed for Murloc decks, and Shamans that have a lot of pirates. He's basically a better Mistcaller.
The last Pirate I have for you is the Nether Raider. A 3 mana 4/5 with charge. HOWEVER, he removes a card from the top of your deck. Can't use Possessed Lackey or Skull of the Man'ari with him, because he's a Pirate. He's forsaken his Demon heritage to become a treasure hunter.
Edit: STOP QUOTING ME THESE CARDS! I'M NOT DOING THESE IDEAS ANYMORE AS I ALREADY THREW THEM IN THE TRASH! GO TO THE CURRENT PAGES, THERE ARE MUCH MORE CURRENT (And better) CARD IDEAS THERE! GOD!

The Druid and Warlock cards are really broken. First one is an even better Kobold Librarian, second one is stronger than Kor'kron, costs less and has no drawback at all. Removing a card from the top of your deck is like never drawing it, so it doesn't change anything. Cookie is ok I guess, he seems weaker than Keleseth.
Thoughts on this guy? I'm not sure whether or not this is overpowered. Might make it 5 mana.
Feels like a Rogue card. I don't think it's overpowered but I can see some situations where it would be pretty annoying. Maybe give him 1 or 2 more Health or +1/+1 and remove the Stealth. Then I guess it would just be a One-Eyed Cheat for Murlocs.

So, my first real idea (I was tempted to do something else for something stupid, but opted against it).
Basically like Lotus Assassin for Divine Shields. It has Divine Shield itself and as long as it keeps attacking (it doesn't even need to kill like The Boogeymonster does) minions, it keeps gaining Divine Shield. Could be used to get multiple buffs for Bolvar, Fireblood or Light's Sorrow.

Alright I got a new Nether Raider then. I think you'll like this new one more.
Pretty cool theme! Here's what I got so far. And, because I'm a cheap bastard, I'm including one I had lying around. Eventually I'll come up with better ones.
Sacrifical Lamb: Very useful for Discardlock. To clarify, this minion serves as an alternative target. Meaning it will always be targetted by a Discard effect. If you play Doomguard, for example, this card will be one of the two cards it discards.
Gaegoronus: So I got a few different ideas for this one, actually. Because Silence might give you a permanent portal I have two other versions:

Wished to be pink.
Then did.
Then fired myself.
Then did again.
Alelemental for rogue or warrior yesssss
What, no restrictions for Mechs? Wow, the tribe is even dead here in Hearthpwn.
There're more Mage Dragons (Coldarra Drake and Sindragosa) than Paladin Dragons (only Dragon Consort), but none of those Mage Dragons has an effect that interacts directly with other Dragons and the Paladin also has Nightbane Templar so I've decided to ban Paladin instead of Mage for this competition.

Remember, only Pirate, Murloc, Beast, Dragon or Elemental, not Mech, Demon or Totem!
Very early version, is this undercosted?

Ok, I made 3. Feedback for feedback.
Elywnn Stalker: A Rogue-ish spin on Corpsetaker, one of my favorite cards.
Ephemeral Assasin: Solid card for Kingsbane Rogue that's especially good once Kingsbane gets a really high attack.
Baratus: Better/cooler version of Rotface that could be used to keep up pressure in a control warrior deck.
