Hi. I'm new to the community, but I've been playing Hearthstone for a long time and would like to share my ideas on card creations. I don't know if some of my ideas have already been posted somewhere else or not, but I'll share it anyways. I'm also bad at image design and would rather leave the image empty than adding terrible pics. Let me know what you think.
If what you mean is the Metallic Creations, then I will explain it to you.
Here's how it works: You spend all of your armor. You fill your side of the board with random minions. These random minions, if combined, have a total cost of equal to your spent Armor. And yep, 0 cost minions may also be summoned. Each minion summoned will only cost 10 at max. The total cost of the minions will always be equal to the spent Armor, except for some conditions (you only have 1 minion slot, and you spend 20 Armor). Hope it helps.
Hi, always glad to see new ppl showcasing their stuff around here. If you want some helpful tips on card creation, check out this topic - Hearthstone Card Creation - A Primer; for ex.: one of the non-written rules of HS card design is, that the max number of lines of text on a card is 4 (no other existing card has more than 4), you have 5 on one of your cards and you can see it doesnt rly look very nice.
About the art, i think you should get into it, the name and the art is about as important for a good card as is its ability. They give the card flavor and tie all things together. If you just give us the ability, its like ... ok whatever, anyone could come up with that, but if you tie it with a nice name and art and make the card whole, then the card can be memorable :)
Anyway, good luck with your future cards, i sometimes nitpick on everything cause i want to help ppl better themselves, but remember, you should have fun with it in a first place! :) So GL and get cracking :)

Hi, thank you for giving the advice.
I really, REALLY wish I could draw and make the art, but unfortunately, that's where I'm not good at. In fact, that's where I'm at my worst. I really hope that I could find someone that would like to help me create the image of each card, but, for now, sharing ideas and names for them is the best that I can do.
About that non-written 4-line text, I think you're right. I didn't pay attention on that aspect. I'll fix that in my future card creations.

Again, thank you for the comment.
Ehm ... you dont have to draw the art yourself lol, just google the pics like well all do :D
They are amazing cards man! For the art you can just search on google images: ... fantasy art, and you most likely get usefull art! Keep up the nice work :-)
I'm about to create a custom expansion with 200+ cards and more (I will post it here as fast as 1 month from now), but I want to test how good my balancing "feel" is. I'm glad the feedbacks are positive, despite the lack of image.
