The Coin. 

Sorry I've been quiet, uni's restarted again to keep me busy.

Loving the teamwork here :) anchorm4n's on the ball with Jaffa the city. Another hint: Both letter and fever can be paired with a certain colour.

Jaffa is one of the ancient port cities in Israel.

So this is a Scarlet Crusader?

Ey, nice on R! Over to you :)

Way to make the dream work, team 

Thanks to the anchorm4n. Without his "scarlet" hint, I would not find the answer. I think that this answer does not deserve a score.

I'm made of iron and also I'm hide.
I'll protect you from the next fight.
Just use me and do something else.
Or do you prefer to do it yourself?

Bolf Ramshield?

Nope

Is it... Ironhide Direhorn?

Nope. He doesn't protect you.

But you kinda close.

Nope. Taunt is not a key.

Ironfur Grizzly?

Bulwark of Azzinoth? 

Nope. I repeat again - it is not a taunt.

None of your answers is suitable for the last line. This line is very important.

Feral Rage?

Is it Bite, Claw, or Gnash?

All these cards are close, but there is not correct answer. Remove +Attack (this riddle is only about protection) and add a couple of words from the riddle (name of a card).

Hey, what's up? Do you need another hint?

Yes, it was Iron Hide.

Lol, good one. If only I knew this card existed still....

Kayn Sunfury?

Is it Leper Gnome? Or something similar like Backstreet Leper or Kobold Sandtrooper?

Anub'arak?

Val'anyr?

Dragonrider Talritha

Dreadsteed? Or maybe Rattlegore?

Immortal Prelate

Cruel Dinomancer?

Only for those who maybe don't know this combo.

A hidden monster, almost never seen

He likes to make small children scream

Eating people left and right

But although he looks it, he isn't much of a fright

Ouch, that was fast. Yes, it's The Boogeymonster.

Does anybody have any tips for writing good riddles? Mine are usually guessed pretty quickly.

Defender of Argus?

Immortal Prelate?

Tips for writing good (imo at least) riddles:

1. Try to pick a not iconic card (Boogey is the most notoriously bad card in the game).

2. Reread every line like you were reading it for the first time. Did you give something away?

3. Employ purposeful mysteries. You can always give away hints later.

4. Try to straw man people into thinking it’s something else.

5. Use big words and flowery language. It throws people off.

29. If no one can guess my current riddle, there might be an extra clue left here. Always recheck yours and others tracks! 

37. An important line of the riddle lends from another person’s riddle.

think that might be all I got, or possibly some more..

Quote From anchorm4n

Since it was my turn before KANSAS, this is an easy one. 

I buff and attac

I guard and protec

I'm essential for every infernal deck

Probably Abyssal Summoner? (Abyssals are subspecies to infernals)

Siegebreaker?

Mal'Ganis?

Alright, second chance. Let's hope this is a little trickier than the last one.

What I take I will give, though little it is

I will obey my master's wishes

I was once unique, until others copied me

But now I have ascended to royalty

It's not Alexstrasza.

Lord Jaraxxus

Nope. It's not legendary.

Maybe Reincarnate?

Also incorrect.

Judging by your name, the card can only be Dorothee. Boom. Another win in the hole. 

As KANSAS already said - card is not legendary.

Correct! It is Queen of Pain. You're next anchorm4n.

Eliminated for trying to rhyme bother and brother. ^ ^.   Cairne Bloodhoof?

Cursed Disciple?

Animated Avalanche! 

Green Taker 

Purple Dude,

Scratch Maker;

Four Total in Deja Vu.

Pen Flinger?

This one might get eclectic.... but trust me there’s enough hints there to solve it if you think beyond the box... 

Not Penny. 

I’m actually rly proud of this one XD good balance of “makes sense when you see it” and absolute mystery.

Without further hints you’ll want to focus on the last two lines. The first two fit but you won’t get anywhere with em.......... gn! 

Wrathspike Brute?

Love your reasoning, anchor but it’s pretty off. One point you did bring up was correct, however. Not Wraithspike but somewhat similar to it

Also the 2nd line might be a little too much of a red herring. It refers to another card it has synergy with.

The ‘deja vu’ in line 4 alludes to a riddle recently made by someone else.

Carnivorous Cube? I am absolutely stumped here. Is it a meme card or a good card in a deck or something?

Yeah it was playable in a recent deck that your guess was also in.... or at least a deck of same class, cant quite remember.

Damn. Good guess. Lines up as you said, but no it isn’t a Lock minion  

also... dont hate me too much but I may have been overating how much it was run, it was experimented with for sure but i might be confusing it with a very similar minion : /

The card and the similar minion synergize with a spellstone 

Soulbound Ashtongue?

1 - "Green" because it's a common card

2 - "Taker" because "takes damage"

3 - Purple skin

4 - Deal damage to your hero

Neutral Wrathguard

Sorry, no.
Green refers to its name actually
Purple because a card it synergizes with

Scratches cuz, well, thats what it does.

Deja vu because i stole from someone else’s riddle.

cmon guys you got this : D

Ornery Tortoise?

Emerald Reaver

R with the W.

thank god, i fhought this site was going to self destruct if this thread came to a stand still o.0 

Wow, I have never seen anyone run this card with Spellstone like, ever. The more you know I guess.

No, but it's close

Yeah I confused it with Cheaty Anklebiter

Aluneth

Dragon's Fury?

Bane of Doom? 

Flanking Strike?

Initiation?

Holy Water?

OOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH

it's Baited Arrow.

I am boring and bland, not heroic, nor venerable

I couldn't beat an immobilized vegetable,

I'm old and gray, with not much to say

But I'll be readily available until the end of days.

Ancient Watcher?

No

Dorothee.

hehe. Nat Pagle? 

Is it... Shieldbearer?

Lorewalker Cho

All incorrect.

Here is a hint, the minion has an attack value and it can attack. It just doesn't have a whole lot of stats for it's cost.

No, but I think you guys are on the right track.

Think of a card whose only legacy is being really really useless.

Mogu'shan Warden

Very close, but not quite.

Useless, eh? So Silverback Patriarch or Barrens Stablehand?

You win! It's Silverback Patriarch.

Apologies, but I am really busy with real life things at the moment. I don’t mind passing the riddle to someone if they would like a go

I'm a newcomer to the expert set.
I'm an early spring representative.
But no one tries to craft me or get.
So I'm waiting to be competitive.

Transfer Student?

Nope

Gift of the Wild? 

it's close. Fit first line, but not the others.

Second line is a key

Brightwing.

Do y'all have no snow on the roofs in winter? What happens when the spring comes?

Exactly

There are many options but judging by the second line... Sherazin, Corpse Flower?

Anub'arak perhaps? 

Felstalker

I once was a beauty but now I'm a beast (Was a succubus, now it's an ugly demon)

On my player's ressources I recklessly feast (Makes you discard a card)

To kill me will cost you, my statline is tall (Has above average stats for it's cost)

I'm basically immortal after all (It's a basic card. So it's immortal in the sense that it will always be in standard)

I renounce the darkness, you will be cleansed,

You must commit, there will be nothing bland,

"Practice what you preach" is what they say,

But I tend to go the other way

Incorrect

Wyrmrest Purifier?

Quote From PopeNeia

Wyrmrest Purifier?

Correct

Wow, how did you guess that Pope? 

I protect, but I can also attack

I might be the worst bodyguard

because I mostly can’t fight back

Hello, sorry I’m always so late to these. I hope this riddle is not too vague.

Quote From Live4vrRdieTryn

Wow, how did you guess that Pope? 

The “renounce darkness” effect and the “nothing bland” line made me think of deck transforming effects already, the last line wher it did not follow its own rules (being a neutral card) sealed the deal for my guess.

I’m thinking Snapjaw Shellfighter. 

Sorry, that is not the right answer.

[Hearthstone Card (

Bolf Ramshield

) Not Found]? 

Y E S.

Haha, I was guessing he was the red herring. 

Surf and Turf! Surf and Turf!

Coming in hot, you think?

Not a lot? It Is still wurf.

Golden Golden Blink Blink!

Blingtron 3000? Also, holy crap you guys made me do a lot of updating to the leaderboard. Also also, WTF ANCHORM4N THE DISRESPECT OF THIS MAN

Nope, but it is a neutral.

I would very much like to see this leaderboard : D 

Zola the Gorgon then? And the  leaderboard is in this thread’s OP

Nope, but on the right track that golden has to do with animation. Refer to first line.

How do I access it? 

Leaderboard on the first page of the thread

Leaderboard is very confusing. Also my name isnt on it....

Umm... [Hearthstone Card (Nat the Darkfisher) Not Found]?

Surf and turf is obvious

The effect about coming in hot (possibly burning a card due to mill?) and how he is still worth ( a 2 mana 2/4)

The final line for the blinking is related to the Golden Card Art where the eyes on his... tentacles? are blinking... and highlighted in a beautiful golden shimmer effect.

Great guess, but a big nope nonetheless. This is kind of an unfair eclectic one bc I happen to own this card in gold and it has a really spectacular animation to a part of it that if you do not own it/ have seen it, you could be left out.

Lets go with this for the hint- this card is fantastic in Arena. ; ) 

As for the question on the animation, yes, a part of this card does blink. It’s adorable, actually. But don’t waste your time scanning every neutral card for it- you wont find it that way!!!!!!

to solve the riddle, absorb what the first line could mean 

Surf.... and..... Turf.... ....? 

Bonus tip: in case some of you are not my culture, S&T is a meal of seafood and land animals 

Going to keep the ball rolling I guess!

My second guess would be Marsh Hydra. Its a great card in Arena and also related to surf and turf. Not only that, but it has beautiful blinking golden eyes.

Mmmmm no. Let’s say I wanted to eat a nice fishy and juicy meaty meal.... what card might satisfy that dish?

Hungry Crab?

Crab satisfies half my hunger, but not the other half.....

I like two meals in one package.

Hench-Clan Hogsteed

Boom. Take it away, R.

hehe... we’re on page 69

Just look at this card. This card is amazing.
Why no one playing it? She is mesmerizing.
She is can't be easely removed from fights.
Also she is infinitily related to "out of cards".

@anchorm4n don’t actually stop lol, I want to earn my way back rightfully (also, someone actually read my bio FeelsGoodMan)

about the leaderboard, it looks fine on my end, but I’m on mobile so it might be different. Can you guys tell the mods what’s actually wrong so they can fix it? Thanks

@Live4vrRdieTryin you are in the leaderboard though. Is this because of the broken thing again?

And uhh, [Hearthstone Card (Doctor Morrigan) Not Found]?

Not even close

Do the first two lines actually give a hint or are they just filler?

Ok. Hints inside the spoiler.

[Hearthstone Card (Shimmering Courser) Not Found]? 

Leaderboard looks great, yay 4!

Yes. A courser is a courser of course, of course, she's more of a unicorn than a horse...

Awesome, thanks to sinti and anchorm4n!

Woohoo! I’m up to 5, watch out anchor ^ ^

.

My soft skin belies my true nature.

Because I’m coming at them running.

With a bite devastatingly major:

When insanity insues, they are done in.

Illidari Felblade

Nope on any DH card 

Turalyon, the Tenured?

No sir, although it is a recent card 

Headmaster Kel'Thuzad? I think it satisfies lines 1 and 3, it's a recent card, but I don't know about lines 2 and 4.

Devoted Maniac?

1. Low stats, but good battlecry

2. Has Rush

3. Not really sure, could reference some of the Invokes

4. Galakrond gets boosted by the battlecries, and all hell breaks loose when played

Dragonmaw Poacher

Round of nopes with a chaser of not even close. It’s certainly more recent than Devoted Maniac..... it’s of the beast tribe

Deathwing, Mad Aspect?

Is it... Darkmoon Rabbit?

Zixor, Apex Predator

Dermostatic takes it, way to think outside the box. 

I thought wtf is this card lol. I didn't even seen darkmoon set cards...

From a shattered world we came to plunder

And tore the fragile peace asunder

Alas, to spread the dark anew

We must recruit a whole new crew

N'Zoth, God of the Deep?
