9 mana warsong anyone?

I was not trolling with the Lord Baraxxus card submission. Sure it had a humorous elements with the puns but Hearthstones a fun game to begin with. I think cards "Anyfin can happen" set that precedent pretty clearly. 

Relating to my mind set behind the design; I thought I did a good job with keeping to theme. It was a tough topic. As buildings have no real representation in game. Thought the Hero Power was a great way to tackle the theme. It reminded me of pumping out soldiers in the original Warcraft Games. But Paladin already did that so I had to turn it up a notch. While I was looking through art of castles I saw the walking citadel and the idea all started to take form. Corrupt Jaraxxus fits right into whats going on in the current set. As far as mechanics I think I did a great job of keeping it balanced while being fresh enough to feel different from the original. Im sure many Paladins would love to have a card like this in their arsenal. 

I personally didnt feel like alot of the other submission captured the building theme very well either. Especially the minion ideas. It just doesnt make sense for buildings to be minions. What, Cruel Taskmaster gonna whip in the front door, how do you assassinate a tower, or how about putting Explorer's Hat on a wall and going SMOrc. So in that sense I think the spells cards might have captured the spirit of the theme best.

Non the less great creativity everyone had fun being part of it.

PS, ShadowsOfSense & Mods, might you consider leaving the poll stage open longer? I didnt even notice it open and close. had no time to participate in this last section (or tell my friends to come vote for me :P).

What if Jaraxxus possessed the barracks.

(edit: had some problems with the imgur links...)

Art so good. shame its wasted on a useless card. 

My bad but I guess. Tho its still beneficial if he doesnt play it. its a dead draw which is a good thing and what the rest of the deck strives for.
