We've got a special competition to celebrate Oozefest 2. You can choose any (or multiple) of these three prompts for your card to follow.
- Run Away!
- Design a card that returns a minion to its owner's hand or deck.
- Over My Dead Body
- Design a card that interacts with Deathrattles.
- While your card (if it's a minion or weapon) does not need to have a Deathrattle, just merely being a Deathrattle will not count. We want something more directly synergistic.
- Design a card that interacts with Deathrattles.
- Trick or Treat?
- Design a card that gives your opponent something harmful.
- For example, Curse of Rafaam or any of the "Bomb" cards.
- Design a card that gives your opponent something harmful.
Does anyone have what it takes to pull off the ultimate trick and meet all three prompts?

Welcome to the site!
Happy Oozefest everybody! I'm not completely convinced of the art pieces yet, but here's my idea. What do you think?
Bit of a throwback to Stalagg and Feugen with some Pogo-Hopper flavor mixed in. I considered making it a Rogue card, but there's too much potential for other Deathrattle classes like Priest and Hunter to make this a class card. Maybe add Rush so they have more impact the turn they're played?
I notice I am confused. Something I believe isn't true. How do I know what I think I know?

Looks like a cool design, but hell no keywords on them. +4/+4 is already plenty and there are many ways to cheat the deathrattle trigger. It might already be pretty strong as is, tho i am too lazy to go and look for the broken combos :P
One thing you might want to do is say in the submission description, that they would be a part of a promo deal for the xpac, everyone would get them free at launch or something. Spending 3200 dust on this, or opening just one of them would feel horrible :D That fact alone might cost you some votes, possibly.

Okay, I went into a deep dive of Shadowlands lore to produce this masterpiece. I should probably adjust stats and the cost of the medallion to make everything more fair. My guiding pieces were Curse of Rafaam, Kael'thas Sunstrider and Spiritsinger Umbra.
What do you think?
Well hearthcards is down for me so I'll just type mine up to get the idea up.

After my huge blunder with regular contest by actually not noticing the typo on one of my Warlock Secrets, I am trying to rehabilitate with this card. It combines theme #1 and #2 whilst adding a unique twist of being a Priest-Rogue dual-class card, as both classes have Deathrattle and return/shuffle synergies.

Does this count as giving your opponent something harmful?
The first one represents a viking (or a Vrykul I guess) that goes to Valhalla after dying in combat, while the second one goes for a more Halloween-like flavor.
I can't find art to save my freaking life. I also had the idea of a minion that gives your opponent a candy bar that fully heals them but makes them unable to cast spells anymore, but couldn't find any art.

My first idea for this comp. The enemy can't see which card is the bomb. When the trick card is played it changes into TRICKED!!! instead of doing anything, like it got Countered basically.
I'll boop you
Hey everyone and happy Oozefest!
Decided to make a deathrattle payoff for druid, evoking the idea that the dead deathrattle minions feed the squashlings and allow them to rise!
Thoughts about 3 mana vs 4mana cost?
I bizarrely can't think of anything for the side-comp at the moment, but let me contribute with some feedback.
Just sayin I did make mine before Neo I just didnt have art for it because hearthcards was down
