Grats to winner. cool concept. Almost skipped this week until I came up with possession. Happy it was received well. Probably needed some tweaking but id love to see something like that in the future.
Possession seems to be broken with Alexstrasza, since it becomes "restore yourself to 15 life every turn for 2 mana", which means you have 8 attack every turn and 15 health. Could you imagine how broken Jaraxxus would be if instead of a 3/8 weapon it had a 8/3 weapon and a hero power that restored himself to 15 life every turn? and I'm not even saying the aggro implications that would had since you would only need 7 damage to finish your opponent on most games right after using this card.
I thought of that, Pretty sure you can't heal yourself past your heros max health. So with Alexstrasza you could heal to 8 hp. I believe this interactions been tested with major domo and alexstrasza before.
Regarding your point of just having to just deal 7 more damage the turn after you target alex. It is powerful and maybe the best target I can think of. My only defenses of that are; your opponent does have a turn to disrupt you, its quite mana intense so you wont be interacting with your opponents board, and your relying on a legend as a win con which lowers your consistency.
The interactions I fear are most broken are OTK plays with buffs like Power Overwhelming. ie, 7+ atk minion plus 2 PO would be OTK unless the possession minion and hero shared attack cooldown. Im not sure how the game engine would handle that tho im inclined to think you both could attack.
Possession seems like the most fun card ever! I can see it now. Hero Power - Cast a spell for each spell you cast this game. Hero Power - Set Hero's Health to 15. Hero Power - Destroy all minions and discard your hand. Hero power - Shuffle the Map of the Golden Monkey into your deck. What happens when you copy Faceless Manipulator?
You'd have to get the Faceless in play with an Alarm o Bot or something but yeah no idea what would happen there. Best case they you could swap into another minion Hero I guess.
Same for Golden Monkey because after you play it all your cards are transformed to minions. Maybe if you got a Nefarian then stole a Possession from your opponent.
Deathwing would create an interesting scenario wouldnt it. The ultimate game stall? your opponents hero power might decide it.
Its basically a little healing and damage with a chance to abuse a battlecry if left unchecked. So for cost based it off Holy Fire. It could probably cost less (6?) because its conditional but I figured the flexibility and chance of abuse called for 8 mana.
Really liked the submissions this week. Lots of quality innovative stuff. GL.
I voted; killing spree, fissure, cannon volley, and dragonflies. Could have voted more but i had to stop there. I usually try to only vote for a couple at most.
Odd week, think the Keyword might have thrown some people off but we still ended up with some pretty creative stuff. Also Id say people were a touch above this week in matching aesthetics and theme with thier creation's mechanics. GJ guys

Hidden Dagger the one that really stands out to me. Shame the masquerade effect didnt really make it.

[card]Argent Commander[/card] seems like a bold choice nowadays

We need to have a purify/silence competition week. Community seems obsessed with the concept. Wonder if there is a way to get it out of their system.

This my first idea but i might move onto something else because I get the feeling headless horseman is going to be popular this week.
