Competition Theme: I Like Big Comps and I Cannot Lie 

• First of all, congratulations to Phoenixfeather for winning WCDC 10.13!
• Earlier this year, Pircival won Hearthpwn's Class Competition with Izzy Jameson, the Archaeologist. You can find the full post here: Pircival's Archeologist Submission 
• This week, make a card from any class (or the Archeologist class) that features the keyword: Decay.
  • Decay is the class keyword of Archaeologist, representing the antiquity of their antiques. (Don't judge the diction, this is a direct quotation from Pirc himself).
  • Decay reads as follows:

 

• Note: Decay does not stack.
• Some examples are shown below:

                                                  

 

• You can choose the Archeologist class by selecting more classes on Hearthcards.net and selecting the "Pirate Hero" icon: 

 

• This competition is a way of dipping your toes into the world of custom class creation!  Have a look around and see some of the hard work and careful thought that goes into creating an entire custom class! If you want to join our discussion on how we'll handle our next Big Comp, send us your thoughts here!

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. As a rule of thumb, please don't pop in here just to advertise your entry only to never be heard from again. This includes only asking short, generic 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. 
• 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.

"Drake it to the limit, one more time"

Mechanic explanation: If this minion gets played next to a dragon, it gains +2/+2.  Then, if a minion is placed between it and the dragon and then THAT minion dies, it AGAIN becomes adjacent and AGAIN will gain +2/+2

To be clear, if this minion gets played next to a dragon, it gains +2/+2.  Then if a minion is placed between it and the dragon and then THAT minion dies, it AGAIN becomes adjacent and AGAIN will gain +2/+2

Edit: ouch that spelling error XD

Competition Theme: This is Gonna Drag-on Forever

Congratulations once again to Adamaxes for winning WCDC 10.12.  As the Year of the Dragons approaches the beginning of its end and with the new expansion about to descend upon us, this week's competition will be Dragon themed!

Competition-Specific Restrictions:  

You can make ANY card that interacts with dragons, However: 

• The interaction CANNOT be "if you are holding a dragon"
• You are allowed to include up to (1) token. If you are doing so, make sure BOTH of them interact with dragons and stick with Rule 1. 

Examples include: Dragonslayer, Dragon Speaker, Dragon Consort, and Dragonfire Potion

General Competition Rules

These are the rules that remain consistent from competition to competition.

Posting Tutorial

This is a posting tutorial for the website imgur.com. If you use another website, the process will be similar.

1. It is recommended you use hearthcards.net to create your cards. Save the generated card to your device.
2. Upload the image to imgur.com. You do not need an account.
3. After your image is uploaded, many links will be generated. Find the "Direct link". It will have a .jpg or .png at the end of the link. Copy the link.
4. On your hearthpwn post, find the "Insert/edit image" button: 
5. Paste the direct link. This is recommended but not mandatory: You may choose to make the image smaller by changing the image dimensions.

Quote from Adamaxes >>

you don't want to have a weapon equipped when you play this since weapons are activated during your turn, which means this minion also takes damage when it attacks your hero. 

Just a small point here.  When a minion attacks a hero with an equipped weapon, the minion does not take damage.  

Here's my piece for the week.  Loving the flavor of some of these entries!  I'll be back to do some card reviews for my favorites later on!

This Week's Finalists

Competition Theme: Pet Cemetary

Congratulations once again to nobravery for winning WCDC 10.10. They've got a fitting competition theme as we near Halloween.

Competition-Specific Restrictions:  

You will create a Zombeast. However:

• It must combine with an in-game beast that costs (5) or less that has no text or simple keywords. (River Crocolisk, Young Dragonhawk, etc.) You include this in your post.
• You create a Beast, either Standard or Wild. As with all Zombeast cards, this must cost (5) or less. You do not post this card.
• The resulting card, the combination of an in-game Beast and the Beast you create, is the Zombeast you enter to this competition.
• You don't have to name it "Zombeast", name your entry however you'd like.
• Interestingly, nobravery did not specify that the Beast you will create to combine with has to be a Neutral or Hunter beast, nor did he specify the in-game Beast you will use have to be Neutral or Hunter. The end result, however, must be a Hunter Zombeast.
• As a rule of thumb, balance your entry as if you used Rexxar's Hero Power to create it, instead of a standalone card.

This is a special, seasonal contest! What better way to celebrate the spoopy season than with a prize of 7 free packs to the winner?

We have calculated the 8 entries with the highest scores!! 
Check out all the finalists below and vote in our poll (vote for as many or as few as you like) to help decide the winner and be sure to check back after the poll finishes for the announcement of the winner and the start of a new theme!

Big Bad Wolf

The title of this thread has been changed to reflect that this IS, in fact, a ROGUE card.
