Congrats to our finalists, but I could'a won this whole thing if Legendaries were allowed:

He's too cute not to upvote ^_^

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

This is true, but your card kinda scares me D: If you pair it with a Silence like Ironbeak Owl, you can obliterate an enemy's hand with little recourse.

~~Dammit. Tenth.~~

Votes for Sinti and Cheese. Cuz... well... They're awesome. Treasure hunter could make some interesting plays... discovering the occasional Lich King wouldn't be so bad.

Wished to be pink.

Then did.

Then fired myself.

Then did again.

I'm sad because the WCDC didn't make it to the front page this week and there's less entries.

@mods please share this at the main page when you can to get some attention for the voting phase before the QA about the next expansion :)

Kind of crazy how little attention WCDC gets without a front page post. Usually 10 pages of entries and this week had 4. I had the highest-voted card on page 1 with only 17 votes, which would probably be the lowest-voted card on page 1 any other week.

Normally, I vote for 3 people but with so few finalists this week I think I am going to limit to two. Obviously voting for myself but also voting for Razor for making a fun addition to Spell Hunter.

While this was definitely at least partially due to the lack of a front-page post, I think a lot of the loss of traffic to the comp this week was due to the Year of the Raven announcement hype and the Ranked play issues, both big topics of discussion. I definitely noticed a reduction in entries even before when the front-page post would normally have gone up.

The problem is that silence exist. This + Spellbreaker on turn 8 is absolutely ridiculous. Heck, this and Brewmaster would be insane.

No sorry, but with a deathrattle this is simply too overpowered. Instead i would give the opponent a DORMANT spell that can only be activated when no hungriest hippo is on the field. The spell cost 2 mana and give your opponents the cards back that got eaten. "search the hippoop"

And that would be a nice card competition by itself: DORMANT SPELLS!

Going with Treasure Hunter. It's not busted AF as some of the other cards. And while I know it's been said, yeah.. Daydream feels like cheating. It's not interactive with hand size. I really don't care who says what about technicalities. It's not in the spirit of the competition.

So Daydream is the perfect example of why Dead Man's Hand shouldn't have been considered as a valid example.

Sunbreak Drake is one of the best designed cards I've ever seen in these competitions. I haven't thought much about the dragon tag, but the mana, stats, and text are perfect.

daydreams effect is based on how many cards you have in hand. seems like a valid entry to me. maybe you should be more specifc when you call people out about what is wrong.

Even though it's valid, it's much easier to design a card like that than the other cards in the final. Even though it technically does X for X cards in your hand, the expression is replace your hand, so it doesn't even care about how many cards are in your hand... While you get the most (or perhaps least) benefit out of it with a full hand, it still isn't explicitly based on what number of cards you have in your hand, so it seems to me a bit off in terms of the theme.
