You may also, of course, feel free to give early up-votes to any submissions that you like! Voting Phase (Starts 21:00 UTC 1/10/2018, Ends 21:00 UTC 2/10/2018) During this Phase, the Submission Topic will be locked, so no more entries may be submitted.

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.

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 might be a little on-the-nose; I have another idea, but I can't find any good art for it.

A simple idea I had that I wish had existed in Boomsday. Stats seem okay? I didnt want the body too big since its both a neutral and only a Rare, but I could maybe go 3/2 for 3 or drop the mana by 1?

Hi i'm Tyler and I play hearthstone and watch anime.
Sometimes i make cards. I'd like to do that for a career one day if ever possible.
These is my first idea this week. The theme is that you give him a spare part and he upgrades all your mechs with it. Cam't tell which is better between these two:

A mod might need to look this one over as I believe the point is to specifically target mechs with the card itself, not through second hand measures. Tho this does technically target mechs WITH second hand measures. so im at a loss lol.
In either case, I like it even tho it's only viable in Wild.

You're buffing the Mech twice - Adapting it, then giving it Rush - so I wouldn't improve the stats. Adapt is worth 1-mana on its own (Adaptation).

Love your card! But yes, choose another artwork. Also, I'd suggest you changing the text to "Give your Mechs (Wherever they are) Deathrattle...." so he gets even crazier XD

ah thats a good point! so yeah if anything the stats might already make it good. You get to cast Adaption on a mech, and the rush will make for pulling things like divine shield or poisonous almost too good.
Thanks for the advice. I might try to find slightly cooler art but otherwise I guess i'm ready lol.

The card is still benefiting Mechs, even if it's technically buffing itself first. While we are asking for "direct support", that doesn't mean it can't do both at the same time. It could maybe go either-way, but in the interest of leniency we'd rather say Yes than No.

love your cards sheer force and design, but again I think the point is something that when played all by itself, will improve or interact with a mech. Maybe make it 'Give a friendly Mech a "Mechanical Upgrade"' and then the upgrades are those cards. Cause its solid otherwise a great throw in for any deck with at least 5+ mechs would run it guaranteed.

Thanks :D The "artwork" remark was for a second idea of mine. I like "Wherever they are" and its ability to effect minions on the board, but that might too good for a 7/7/7 (this version could already be considered too strong).
Your card is pretty cool with the super-buffs, but I would find a different word instead of Mech "Weapon". That implies an actual weapon, versus the buff spell it actually is. Maybe call it "Upgrade" or "Armament".

Naisu! Good idea I suppose as the contest would be boring without some leniency into creative buffing/support.

It's Magnetic because it's half-machine, but not a Mech because it's also human.
We're concerned that this breaks Hearthstone convention to fit the rules, as Magnetic is considered an exclusive Keyword for Mech minions. The other thing is the Deathrattle: because it's not a Mech, it cannot have other Mechs attach to it. The way it is worded it's supposed to be the minion on the table, not the one attached to others.

Well, it could've been a Mech, but someone decided that the minions shouldn't be Mechs themselves...
And also the way I envisioned it would that the Deathrattle becomes part of the Mech it's on.

This is the first idea that came to my mind, but I wonder if it looks too OP.
The idea is to build a midrange mech paladin around it. I would like to know if you see this like something too powerfull, specially played on curve after Mechano-Egg.
Your minion cannot be a Mech :(
