We've made it through another 20 21 weeks of Weekly Card Design Competitions, and you know what that means. Or maybe you don't; you could be new to the scene and have no idea what I'm talking about, wondering when I'm going to stop prattling on and get to the point. Well you passive-aggressive, theoretical reader, maybe...I...will. Every winner from this Season has come together in this Final Final Poll, and it's up to you to tell us your favorite(s). Twenty-one will enter, but only one can win...unless they tie.
Who will be the Champion...of...(dramatic pause)...Season...(wait for it)...8...?
I can't think of my own spin on the next paragraph, so I will instead shamelessly copy what Shadows said last time around: "In the mean time, we have our regularly scheduled mini-competitions running throughout the two weeks that this poll will be up. As usual, there will be one day for submission and discussion, followed by an hour for upvoting (and to give us some space to breathe) and then the remaining 23 hours for a final poll. Don't stress too hard about these competitions, they're the fun silly ones at the end where we all can relax."
Season 9 will start in January, and the next Big Comp will occur around then as well. After the crazy-huge adventure that was making an entire Hearthstone Year, odds are very good we will scale back toward something more simple (like another class comp). We don't have it nailed down just yet, so you'll just have to remain in suspense until then :P If you would like to voice your opinion regarding how Season 8 went, the Feedback thread is available here.
Click on each Winner to see the Final Poll for the competition it won.
Take note that some of the finalists will have extra cards as part of their submission, whether because the competition required more than one card to enter, or because they had tokens as part of their card. All extra cards and tokens can be viewed in a spoiler below.
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
If only Shirvallah, the Tiger had existed sooner, I could have been aware of its phrasing to use with Mecha'Zoth:
...as it currently stands my card's a bit of a mess :( I mean it's great that I finally won, but I'm really dissatisfied with it.

The Perfect Crime is definitely my favorite. Gotta love those alternate win conditions.
I have to agree. It's quite fun and interesting, although would suck if you drew a card that was somehow unplayable given your class. (I can't think of an example, but I'm sure it exists). Mill Rogue alternate RNG win con!
Aside from that, I have to give it to Linkblade's Mecha'Zoth... because I can. And it seems fun. And I swear that no deathrattle Hunters (definitely not me) will abuse it (surely, they're kind and forgiving!)

Technically, you enhanced the card. Old wording required deathrattle minions to die (and not be polymorphed), the current one requires only to play them.

I know they're not the same; it's more a lament on the way I originally phrased the Mecha'Zoth. The results would be different but the card wouldn't look so much like shit :/

Today in my free brawl pack I got Barongeddon, then I had a cup of fresh green tea. As a result of that, I think Priest is OP because my keyboard is not a mechanical one. I hope Blizzard will address this issue.
It was close for me between Atreides, the Sandworm (awesome Dune reference) and Master Michelo (awesome concept). There is a lot of good and original cards here though; so good luck everyone!
It's gonna be Michelo for me, only card of the bunch with some outside the box thinking, most of the others are interesting too but feel very dull to me.
Rotwick The Hollow and The Perfect Crime are easily the best cards here. Rotwick in particular is a great example of a strong build around card that could make Treant Druid a thing, without being being completly OP.
Perfect Crime is creative approach to the Steal Rogue archetype and coule help that deck immensely. That Deck already uses Academic Espionage and loads of draw to beat control decks, this fits right in there.
Mecha'Zoth is a completly overpowered and convoluted mess of a card. Hence, it will probably get all the votes.
Master Michelo is my favourite. It is one of those cards that can really only exist in Hearthstone. Too bad Da Undatakah exists now or Mecha'Zoth would win it for me.
Congratulations to ffinderous: you are the champion of Season 8!
With that, the Season has come to a close. We'll be back in January; in the mean time, enjoy Rastakhan's Rumble and have a good holiday ^_^

Wished to be pink.
Then did.
Then fired myself.
Then did again.
So many amazing cards, I had to put my vote for 12 cards.
But this wouldn't have the other deathrattles if it's summoned by a random effect or if it's pulled from your deck, unlike the original version.
Edit: and the cost is also reduced by deathrattle weapons.
Technically, you enhanced the card. Old wording required deathrattle minions to die (and not be polymorphed), the current one requires only to play them.

Shouldn't this be advertised on the front page now that the card reveal season is over?
Custom cards :
CLASSES : Alchemist (CCC#5 | Phase V) | Chef (CCC#4)
EXPANSIONS : Year of the Scorpion (Year Comp)
Great season. Best of luck, everyone!
It was a great year and a honour for me to compete here. Good luck to all!

I'm glad that I've reached the finals with only four words in the card text.
Gl everyone!
Master Michelo is my favourite. It is one of those cards that can really only exist in Hearthstone. Too bad Da Undatakah exists now or Mecha'Zoth would win it for me.
