This week's theme comes from kingdoemi, whose "Evolution Theory" was the winner of our We Did Eggs First competition!
Competition-Specific Restrictions:
You must create a minion from one of the basic units or buildings of Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos (or its expansion, The Frozen Throne). We want the expendable, replaceable minions; no hero characters!
The rule of thumb is "if you could not build more of them in the RTS, you cannot make a card for them."
Preview Phase (Starts Now! Ends 21:00 UTC 16/5/2019) During this Phase, the Discussion Topic is made available, previewing this week's competition theme. Entry and Early Voting Phase (Starts 21:00 UTC 16/5/2019, Ends 21:00 UTC 20/5/2019) During this Phase, the Submission Topic is made available for your submissions. You may also, of course, feel free to give early up-votes to any submissions that you like! Voting Phase (Starts 21:00 UTC 20/5/2019, Ends 21:00 UTC 21/5/2019) During this Phase, the Submission Topic will be locked, so no more entries may be submitted. Instead, use this time to browse the submissions and up-vote your favorites! Final Phase (Starts 21:00 UTC 21/5/2019, Ends 21:00 UTC 22/5/2019) During this Phase, the Discussion Topic will also be locked, and a new Poll Topic will go up. Discussion will be allowed to continue in the Poll Topic, and it will also include all the qualifying finalists and poll to decide the winner of the competition!
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.

Does our submission have to be a minion? Tree of Life is a spell and an original wc3 night elf building. I think a lot of the buildings lend themselves to being spells over minions. Though some might make good minion cards. Thinking up Moon Well ideas....

Yeah, we're gonna stick with minions for this one: it eliminates some options like the aforementioned Tree of Life, but makes for a theme that can be readily curated :P I think most people would assume a minion, anyway *shrugs*

Couple of ideas i had. When you pick the card with Jailor you cant see what the card is, but if you watch your opponent draw, For example rogues with raiding party, You could block the weapon for a turn as you know they draw it last out the 3 cards. The other is just an alternate idea for secret removal.
Now sure how I feel about this idea, but might as well put it out there and get the ball rollin':
...sort of off-topic, but I can't wait for Warcraft III Reforged.
Flavor is a little bit off when the Gryphon has 3 Attack and the weapon has 4.
lol whoops, that's a typo

Here's my first idea. This card tries to imitate the units bombing abilities and low health by being possible to use several times cheaply- simulating bombing runs-- without requiring a brewmaster or similar card to return it to your hand. Of course, that would be a bit OP, so you'll have to make sure it survives first.
No? There can't be two different cards named the same thing.

Here's what I got, Lazy Peon is my favorite. Meat Wagon probably needs a different price or stats.
I like Lazy Peon as well. Meat Wagon already exists, so I'm not a fan of the Warrior card.

Why is Lazy Peon need the effect at all? This make it really weak compare to Dire Mole. Maybe as a 2/3 or 3/3 minion you can print this. Meat Wagon Catapult is the one I like most because it encourage Big Warrior.
Yeah this one need a hit in stat point. Houndmaster Shaw is the only minion with 3/6 statline and an effect, and he's a class Legendary.
Water Elemental. I agree with your overall point, but...yeah. Water Elemental is a 4/3/6 with an effect.

Not sure if too basic, what do you guys think?

Does our submission have to have the -exact- name as the unit / building from WC3?
Edit - I'm also having issues with that link.

I would say it doesn't need to be 100% exact. Ironforge Rifleman is a Rifleman; I think people can make the leap :)

Fel Stalker is a demon. It’s a cool idea, but flavor wise would better fit Warlock.
Kul Tiras Hydromancer is broken. 7 Mana board clear no matter what. Also idk if we can use ‘special’ units, though I’m sure we can.

Great idea for a competition, but most of the units are already made into cards :) Are duplicate names acceptable?
My initial idea. Crypt Fiends summon little bugs that attack. This might be better balanced as a 3/5 or a 2/6.
