So if I was to recommend something I would try to limit the effect, maybe something on the lines of gaining a deathrattle which is under a certain cost or having a deathrattle which can trigger a random egg deathrattle. At least that way you will have a effect which could create a surprise for your opponent.
Also (and I say this because I used to do this a lot) don't forget, if an effect triggers as you play the minion, add Battlecry at the start.
It does feel like a very memey card. But that said you do have to play spells for the deathrattle to trigger, so it does take some effort. Plus you would have to be careful what to play... so I think it's passable. Though I may have overlooked something.

My Entry for this week's Card Design Competition - Season 8.16:
The first one is a card that I like and think is balanced but can be used in janky ways. The second is extremely complicated, nonintuitive, and uncreative, but Included it because it's so silly that it could work for hearthstone.

I like the first card more but for some classes (paladin) this might be too op. Maybe make it 2 mana so you can't play it turn one then buff it to 3 attack turn 2. For the second cards i think maybe you could apply a matryoshka theme to it instead of calling it egg egg egg.
Ok aaand what about this? I give up with Pandora's Boxes beacuse they weren't real eggs

"The flow of time is always cruel... its speed seems different for each person, but no one can change it... A thing that does not change with time is a memory of younger days..."
Omegga egg: Deathrattle: Summon Nat pagle for you and Deathwing for your opponent*
Anyway I would vote you just for the card name XD
The second one is a bit weird... because a minion dies when it has 0 health (or with a destroy effect like shadow words). So what will happen if a minion destroys it?

We would greatly prefer it if you stuck with making Eggs.
What does "prefer" mean in this context? Does that mean "You'll get savagely DQ'ed if your card doesn't picture an egg" or "I'll be pissed off if the card isn't an egg but I won't do anything about it?"
Because, to be fair, there aren't that many good egg arts out there, so if we could do something else like that newly revealed Goblin Bomb imo that would be better.

I like this idea. The contagious nature of the deathrattle is what makes it interesting. My only recommendation (apart from fixing the accidental doubling up on "a random minion") is to make sure the word "Deathrattle" in the text is also bolded (ex: Dead Ringer)
Omg I really didn't see that repetition! Thank you! And yes, you are also right on the Deathrattle bolded, thank you again.

I did think of this as an idea at first, but there is one problem which I can see with this. The problem is that there are some really powerful deathrattles. For example: Silver Vanguard, Rin, the First Disciple, Kathrena Winterwisp, Pyros, Tirion Fordring.

I don't know where to look for art on eggs. But anyway.
The idea is that you use this in conjunction with Dire Frenzy or Lab Recruiter.
I have two Ideas so far

If you thought manspreading was bad, wait to see eggspreading.

Two ideas, thoughts?

Thanks for feedback!. However I have a mistake in the text of Murky that 0-cost should be 0-Attack. I shall correct that later.
For your cards: I think I like the Unestable Egg more, except Taunt. XD.
Old idea with better wording and a new one... which one is better?
Toche on the second one. Whoops!
What does "prefer" mean in this context? Does that mean "You'll get savagely DQ'ed if your card doesn't picture an egg" or "I'll be pissed off if the card isn't an egg but I won't do anything about it?"

Custom cards :
CLASSES : Alchemist (CCC#5 | Phase V) | Chef (CCC#4)
EXPANSIONS : Year of the Scorpion (Year Comp)
Just wanted to get the obvious puns out of my head and actually came up with some funny stuff.
SoonTM
First idea!
The Submission Topic is here... maybe?
Wished to be pink.
Then did.
Then fired myself.
Then did again.
Simple, fair, nice art, I would def. vote for this.
Can someone review my card please? Thank you :)

My ideas so far:
1) Imagion a 1/1 Ysera or Deathwing Dragonlord.
2) The Warlock egg is purely designed to be played with cards such as Sanguine Reveler , Void Terror ,
or that dino that adapts twice if you destroy a friendly minion etc.
