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.

Yes, she would count as well. I can put it up there.

Most definitely. While we don't have a hard number limit instilled in the rules, we would prefer it if you kept your idea to ~5 tokens max. This is especially true if your tokens are unique and feature text: that would balloon the complexity of your parent card and make it harder on us to showcase your card in the Finals (should you get there).

Couldn't resist not making a few memes. I have like 50 ideas but i won't spam the thread (too much). Tell me what you think!
Spook'em is your best card, IMO. You should find another artwork, even if it breaks the meme a bit.
Besides that, I like the name of Danse Macabre a lot (Camille Saint-Saens was my favourite composer during adolescence, so there goes that xD), but I'm not so fond on the effect.
Revenant Horserider has a ton of synergy with cards like Void Terror or Sanguine Reveler. It's also useful to clear Poisonous minions, and can survive stuff like Twisting Nether. I was thinking about making it a 3/3/4, but the current distribution curves super well with Void Terror.
About Skulash... well, I just liked the art xD
Anyway, this theme is pretty wild, so anything could come out of it. We'll see what comes out of it.

At first I didn't get Revenant Horserider, as I thought you ment excess damage. Reading your explanation, I actually really dig it. I don't like the art though.
Maybe I should change the stats and I'm not sure that it should be neutral. But Idk which class fits the best
I think in arena it will be pretty busted, considering how it can help you to stall the board. Besides that, I would probably make it a 5 mana 5/5, to balance it just a little bit.
Hero Power:
I was thinking in either making it a mage hero or a warlock hero, since he fits perfectly well on both (not the effect, of course), what do you guys think?
I find it okay, probably working similar to a Runic Egg summoner but with slight more flavour to it. I don't dig the art though, I think a more wow-ish art may work, I don't have any though, but I think this idea is okay, nothing outstanding.
I may find another card to make, this is just an idea I had and made it in a few minutes. Probably not the best but I'll brainstorm some when I have time.
Minus kudos for not naming the Bone like a real skeleton part, I mean spine could work anyways.
Last chance to get a theme in Season 8. If you have a good theme relevant to this season, now's your last chance. Which is why it's not going to be me because my first card sucks.
Unfortunately, it feels too weak at 5, but too strong at 4. I can't really change the stats either because then you lose some of the flavor.

Sylvanas basically force both players to track their current hand as well as having to guess which card they draw based on the mana cost, appliable targets or by tutoring effects like Shadow Visions (and no, using deck tracker do not work since her effect apply during the draw phase). Andarius is basially Priest's Shudderwock.

Is 25 differnt tokens too much?

Porbably not the best, but it's what I have for now. Will probably try something else tomorrow ;)
I just lost twice in a row to Kingsbane, totally didn't influence my card:
Unpopular opinion: Rogue is OP
Other than the grammar mistakes, this seems way too OP. A control deck can play this turn 8 and get a strong taunt minion pretty much every turn.

Bet the winner will use the cute witchwood skeleton knight art
