Hearthpwn

Its April first in Korea. That's april fools.

Ya'll just got played.

No card they can create will look more like a dorky weirdo than you do throwing a baby fit about card art not being edgy enough for you.

I'm quite proud of this one, outlaw rogue represent!

For the sake of trying to warm back up into making cards, I gave control warrior an early game board control tool since it lost war axe.

I thought of going for a Kabal class, but I also thought of a custom faction with thepowrofcheese's Chronomancer and Hailey's Keeper from this competition, then found out all of the classes need to be in this competition, so in the end, I decided to go with Kabal.

rip.

Not surprised I ended up losing so badly here, considering all of the stuff I had going on i only really had 3 hours to do the entire submission. Hopefully during the next big comp I won't have so many bad things happening irl to bring me down, and I can use what I learned here. Comparing this comp to the last one I entered, I got a lot further, so who knows how far I can get next time ^-^ 14th place here is still fairly prestigious, I feel.

Still gonna be rooting for Demonxz95 to the end!

Previous Sets:

Odyn is one of the Titanic Keepers, created during the ancient fight of Azeroth's past and empowered by the Titans to do battle with the Old Gods, and eventually aid in locking them away in prisons beneath the earth, in addition to sealing away the corrupted elemental of Azeroth into the elemental plane.

After finally being freed from his imprisonment in his own halls, having been betrayed by Loken and Heyla, Odyn has taken a liking to the game of Hearthstone. However, he vehemently refuses to be seen siding with the Old Gods he fought against in any way (Even though his opinion on dragons have softened, the bronze dragonflight in paticular sharing a blessing from the same titan which empowered him).

To that end, his son Loken has agreed to represent the class of Keeper for the WOG expansion. He has much more experience in befriending such aberrant beings from the void as the Old Gods.

“ My death... heralds the end of this world. ”

Perfect for grabbing those all important game-closing cards, like Yogg-Saron, Hope's End who is Loken's master as of his betrayal, or the thematically appropriate Algalon the Observer from the classic set.

Yogg-Saron has corrupted the Forge of Wills, and now profaned creations are being produced at the behest of the fallen keeper Loken. These offer some mech synergy, and give the Keeper a more aggressive direction to take in comparison to its more midrange and control orientated basic and classic cards. They also (theoretically) can be used with GVG mechs in wild, and have reasonable synergy with the Keeper's other core mechanics.

The rest of the Cards:

Challenges:

Envoy of the Silent is a corrupted version of Tol'Vir Oracle (rather than copy enchantments, it gives enchantments), Envoy of the Silent provides a non X/X buff to C'thun, The Onyx Knight is my chess themed card.

I actually don't mind the c'thun challenge ;-; I feel bad for everyone who's struggling with it though.

I'm gonna do an in depth look at all of the cards posted so far when I get back from work, but I wanted to give a bit of immediate feedback to  thepowrofcheese. 

I don't really like the idea of an effect which will be delayed that much which lacks a visual indicator of some kind. Minor ones like dragon consort are okay, but something huge like summoning an 8/8 for free could really take players off guard if they lose count over the course several turns. 

IMO the best way to solve that would be to summon a Dormant stitches with a visual indicator for how close it is to awakening. I know the dormant mechanic wasn't introduced until ungoro, but (i personally, anyway) think its conceivably ok to introduce those non-keyword mechanics a bit earlier, since we're already retroactively changing hearthstone history with the classes ^-^

The rare word is 'Excess', as seen in Explosive Runes .

Control shaman baybeeeeeee.

Quote from Haileystraza >>

References murlocs thematically, both with the name/art and the cost of minions it affects.

Any opinions on balance?

 I might up it to 4 or 5, just because it's fairly simple for the Warlock to flood the board with this spell. With healing cards and a plethora of draw effects, Gul'dan can overcome the detriment fairly regularly - especially if you kill the enemy first.

Also, Cost, Health, and Mana should be capitalized.

"Don't worry kid! I'm gonna save you from that chicken stomach!"

Good luck to all you guys!

I rarely concede, even when I know I have lost. Personally I just find it more honorable to not concede. Conceding feels wrong, even when I know I have lost. And also there is the very small possibilty that my opponent's internet disconnects and I win.
