Hello everybody! This topic is for discussion of our "April's Artists" mini-competition. 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.
So, without further ado, have fun and get creating!

I didn't have a signature so Flux added one for me.
@nurgling13 As much as I love the joke, we're specifically looking for you to only change the art part of the card. I think there's one example of doing more than that in the April Fools list - Vanish, maybe? - but we just want art for this.
@Asylum_Rhapsody I would allow that. Since the point of this is to be sillier than normal, we will be allowing more... memetic entries. Just use your best judgement of course - racism, sexism, nudity etc are still against the forums rules.

The rules say you're allowed to redraw the entire card, though. In that case, you would be changing the rest of the card, as long as you don't change the text, cost, or stats. How is mirroring the entire card any different from redrawing it? I didn't change any of the text.

The Submission Topic did say that you can't use cards from a list of cards that have already been used for April Fools, and Mirror Image is on that list.

It doesn't actually say you can redraw the entire card, it says the entire card art. Similar to the Ragnaros we've used for the banner for this competition, or the Derpwing we used a while back. As Demon pointed out anyway, we already did Mirror Image ourselves, so it wouldn't qualify.
I'm not really good with meme in general, but here's my 2 cents:
An larger version to see the full extend I modified Shadow Visions:
Oh that Shadow Visions is great, but I think it'd be even better with Primordial Glyph
I tried a version with Primordial Glyph but it just doesn't look as pretty as Shadow Visions due to not having the Murloc as a guideline for picture placement:

So, like, how meme-y are we allowed to get? Because I could see this getting very meme-y.
