Hearthpwn

Wow, this is an old thread. Figured I'd pop in real quick and say I still want to keep adding stuff to this, I just... forgot about it, to be quite honest. I've made a lot more cards and I'm looking forward to posting them.

Here's a preview of a few...

Next: A card that has some sort of synergy the game doesn't have yet (Synergy with common cards, cards of the same class, etc.)

Could you change my username to Sparkle? :)

He has 16 stats (9 + 7). His deathrattle is worth between 1 and 3 more, I'd say, depending on the matchup. That's easily the level of an 8-drop, possible even a 9-drop. He's incredible value.

This is a nice idea. While it is BGHable, as people above pointed out, it's not necessarily a great BGH target seeing as it's a 4-drop.

The text should be changed so there's less confusion. Assuming that it does die at 0 attack, or maybe that it takes 1 more damage after the 7 "attack damage", you can rewrite it as: "Damage to this minion is dealt to Attack before Health."

With that adjustment, I think it would be a balanced but powerful card.

All of these ideas are fantastic! :)

Bloodseeker does feel like a weaker Eaglehorn Bow; the best thing about Eaglehorn Bow is that it can last a long time if you use secrets, whereas this can easily become an underwhelming 3-mana Glaizezooka, or, to put it another way, a Shadow Bolt that hurts you. The best possible outcome is a 3-mana Flame Lance that hurts your face, but that's only a 25% chance and it's still not excellent; players would rather go for a reliable weapon like Eaglehorn Bow than a hit-or-miss weapon like that. It's a good concept but I think it's too much "all or nothing."

Haunting Knight is really interesting. I feel like it might be a little bit underwhelming, though. On turn 2 there's a decent chance your opponent plays a 3/2 and kills it for free on turn 3, which means it will have dealt... wait, at the end of each turn? So 5 damage... never mind, that's a good card.

Gnoll Brute seems like a tech card that would be powerful in a taunt meta, sort of like how Lil' Exorcist can be powerful-ish in a deathrattle meta and Kezan Mystic in a secret meta. Could potentially be used, but then again maybe not. I don't know.

Bitter Mage seems on the balanced side of "strong" and Wolfrider Captain seems alright. At 4 mana, a minion is supposed to have 9 stats; this is 3 + 2 + 3 (charge) = 8 and the Raid Leader effect. While it's perfectly decent, I can't see it being used very much. Rogue Trainer is good, adds some nice Stealth synergy, but maybe it could say "Whenever a minion gains Stealth, give it +1 attack"; that way it still buffs minions like Gilblin Stalker while also having some Conceal synergy.

These are some really good cards. Keep going :)

Dragon Priest is excellent at dealing with aggro if you have any of your taunts in your starting hand. Wyrmrest Agent and Twilight Guardian are both great against face hunter and the like. You've probably just been having bad luck.

Good sorts of RNG are Knife Juggler, Ragnaros the Firelord, and Webspinner.

Bad sorts of RNG are Ram Wrangler and Unstable Portal.

RNG is fun when there's a random element, but not when it's all-or-nothing; in the case of Ram Wrangler, King Krush or Hungry Crab.

Hey! I'd be happy to help out :)

- While I'm not an expert at WoW lore I've played for several years and have vague familiarity with characters and stories

- I've designed a Death Knight and a Demon Hunter class concept, but the first was scrapped and the second is still private so I can't show you them. However, you can check out some of my cards in my workbench. (<-- That's a link)

I'm Sparkle#1230 on Battle.net, if you'd like to add me.

Edit: Some of my favorite cards are below.

New keyword: Empower. When you play a minion with Empower (x), you may choose to pay X additional mana crystals to grant some sort of extra benefit. Yes, this is directly copied from MtG. I haven't made a card with Empower yet, but I will soon :)

Anyway! Three new cards, spellcaster weapons! I think they're pretty good :D

Three more cards!

Some more cards. I focused on some tribe interactions here.

Rapid Fire will limit me a little when it comes to making large hunter spells, but with the spells currently in the game I think it's balanced :P

Glad to hear you like the Felhunter nerf, it's still a powerful card but it only lasts one turn, which is why I figured it was safe to keep the 3/2 stats.

Rehgar feels kind of too good now. Maybe keep the (4) reduction but only apply it to spells? Or maybe it's good to have a really powerful combo card for Shaman.

Thanks for the response!

This minion gets value with cards like Emperor Thaurissan, Pint-Sized Summoner, and Unstable Portal.

Update: I've significantly buffed Rehgar Earthfury, Elder Shaman Mark for Death and Renewal.

I've also nerfed Felhunter.
