ok, little background. when i think of a neutral spell, i think of something that would basically synergize with neutral cards. granted there are so many neutral cards that none of them really combo with one another unless they are part of a tribe so i thought, what else could combo? then i thought of an idea i had before. black/textless cards.
in the case of the card, textless is a term reffering to a card that literally has no text in its description. so even stuff like taunt would not be counted. list of all textless cards:
thing is, textless would include tokens like the silverhands and imps so i dont want these to be specific towards paladin and warlock but at the same time, to sacrifice slots for beatsticks may balance it out? thoughts?
Very well constructed presentation of the topic Rhapsody, and anyone else who was involved. Great philosophical take on the notion of the neutral spell, with well defined and interesting differentiations developed. Kudos!
@Shnayzr I guess it can become very situational, don't remember ALL "valid" battlecries, so maybe give the player 2 cards to make the swings lesser? If one is useless, then theres a chance the other wont. Increase mana cost to like 3 or something to compensate
Gonna create more potions, picturing 9 potions in the pool you can draw from, but I really need sleep now..!
it would be nice to see people prioritizing balance when voting this week considering the universal impact that neutral spells would have. There's no point in having a spell that excludes or that favours any class. This competition is essentially a challenge in creating a universally balanced card, so second only to creativity, balance should be the critical element, imo.

Yes, but the thing is, everyone has a different perspective on balance. Which is why some people think all cards should be on par with Dr. 6, and others think that all cards should be more on the level of something like Flame Leviathan.
I hate that "Level Up" is on my page. I can see how it will win the entire contest. It's a pretty neat idea.
I thought your card submission was really cool. I was trying to think of something involving professions before I went with Level Up!, but I couldn't think of anything that was cool and simple.
Your card is simple and creative, and it's a perfect fit for the idea of Blacksmithing being in Hearthstone. It made me think about what the other professions would look like. I definitely gave it an upvote.
Sinergy with muster for battle, imp-losion, snake trap, unleash the hounds, etc. What do you guys think about?
Also, is the text correct?
What do you mean by change? Like, swap with another minion? Or like, literally change the number to something else, and you end up with a 13/37 Knife Juggler?

yes, i think swap fits perfectly, for exemple, if i have a 1/1 minion and my enemy has a 3/2 minion, mine becomes a 3/2 and his minion becomes a 1/1, but for exemple, if i have 2 1/1 minions and my enemy has a 3/2, my minions can swipe from each other and my enemy will have a 1/1 minion, understand? Swap will fit, right?

yes, i saw this haha, but I've already edited, and about the cost? Should cost more? Maybe 4?

I think 3 mana is alright, but aside from that, this seems to favour Paladin a LOT more than any other class, and this doesn't really make sense as a neutral card.
hey asylum, am I going crazy, or did they fix that upvote bug where posts that you upvoted weren't updating properly? I swear I voted for Level Up! at +4 votes, and now it shows it at +8, without me having to un-vote and re-vote.

i think it is a little bit OP. aslo what will happen to minions with 10,12 or 20 cost?

It's more a fun card and the effect is random, so, for exm, all your 1/1 minions can swap stats between them, this is not a big thing.
