Paradox is another card that - by design - doesn't even work mechanically. The whole point of the card is that it is unknown whether Paradox can Discover itself. It's like creating a card that says "Set your hero's health to 0 and 100". It's clever for the sake of being clever without satisfying the basic requirement of functioning as a card that could be included in the game.
Mathematicians don't care about the functionality of their works. As long as they're cool - or in your words, clever for the sake of being clever- it's great maths.
By the time Blackrock Mountain released, there was not much resurrect priest support: no
Barnes
, no
Shadow Essence
, no
Zerek's Cloning Gallery
, and no other resurrect cards except
Resurrect
itself. I hope this card could lead resurrect priest into another deck archetype; not one that cheat out big minions in early games, but one that focuses more on minion trading.
Are we allowed to make epic or legendary class cards?
Nevermind, I found what to submit:
Cool idea, but imho you have to balance it a bit. Just imagine the following scenario:
Resurrect priest casting Zerek's Cloning Gallery into Spirit Lash into encore!. 4 mana is just too cheap for a powerful effect like this one.
[edit] Yeah, I understand this spell resurrect enemy minions as well, but Priest will abuse it in its Big variation builds.
Aren't we designing cards for the blackrock mountain expansion? There's no cloning gallery, no spirit lash and no other resurrect support cards except Resurrect itself.
The current submission and voting system is fine, as long as you don't post it on the first page. And wild card still exists (does it?), which could save some high-quality entries if the mods want.

It's me at reddit. My username is u/AcidNoBravery there, if you wanna check.

Now, does this discover itself?

An interesting twist on this occurs to me.

"Costs (1) less for each minion that died this turn" is one of Blackrock Mountain's main mechanics. I referred to Revenge of the Wild for balance since these cards often cost (2) more than their counterpart: Arcane Intellect & Solemn Vigil , Dragon's Breath & Shadow Bolt .

Mechanic for counting turns is similar to Spirit of the Shark

iirc, we've had a plenty of winners with the effect of transforming other cards/minions into a copy of this card...
