Hearthpwn

Slightly Magical Bananas:

Oof, I made a couple of minions originally and changed the one i liked most to a spell for balancing reasons, forgetting that it had to be a minion.

Ah well, I already submitted so it's too late to change it now. I'll just have to live with my mistake u-u

"Welcome to the Alliance Barracks Recruitment Agency, how may I hel- Liadrin? You're not supposed to be here!"

I was wondering if I should change it to frozen instead, but that might be deviating from WC3 a little too much (I already had to pick different art.)

A: I might be shitposting a bit with these cards.

B: Do they count as a chicken cards?

C: Should I actually post either?

Oof, just missed the chance to be in the final poll by two votes!

Still, X marks the spot is great, expecting it to win this. I'd be super hyped if it was printed as an actual HS card.

References murlocs thematically, both with the name/art and the cost of minions it affects, and it's a callback to Seadevil Stinger.

Any opinions on balance?

edit: oof i didn't check any of the other entries before posting and it turns out this is a lot like ignite. hopefully that's ok but i don't expect to win lol

"Nothing suspicious here."

I've been away from the site and not really played hearthstone for a long time, so I missed a lot of this competition. That's pretty sad because looking over the entries this seems like one of the coolest lineups in a while.

Botanist seems pretty interesting, and trying to balance a built in universal jade mechanic with the hero power must have been really hard.

Battlemage is also pretty spicy with it's 3 damage hero power, but the restrictions on using it. Spellfury is a super cool keyword too and an interesting spin on combo, using a different activation requirement.

Enchanter's hero power is interesting, and I like the idea of a spell damage focused class. I guess it's kind of unfortunate spell damage has such a limited scope in hearthstone, with the exception of, like, Unexpected Results. I feel like phase is a weird keyword though? I don't dislike it per-say, it just seems hard to fit cards with the keyword into your deck without building around it (and yet if you do build around, activating it would be pretty arbitrary.) Idk if I'd find it fun? No point in me mentioning it now though, just me explaining why I find myself split on how much I like the class.

Not sure what my favorite is yet, still catching up on them. It's hard to pick a favorite when they all seem super solid, but I just mentioned the ones which stand out for me.

Also, something I've been wondering is if you guys have a hearthpwn discord group or something for the fan creation stuff? I presume people talk somewhere outside of the forums, but maybe I'm wrong lol.
