Fits in with the bounce style of Rogue and also adds value when bounced. Worse case scenario, it's a cheaper Assassinate or Vilebrood Skitterer. Best case scenario, it's a source of board resets as the token does hit all minions. Thoughts are appreciated.
That's a fantastic idea! It sounds even better than Mimiron's Head. I had considered Kobold Stickyfinger, but Blingtron does his job far better. Thanks for the suggestion!
One has to be very careful what one says online regarding any issue these days - particularly if relating to race or gender. Caution is advised (and after reading twitter for a bit about lots of topics I think I'll just shut up about everything :P ).
But I am allowed to *think* it. So take that Internet!
The Braum change is HUGE, I mean he can now kill chump blockers and also Black Market Merchant also the almost guranteed poro generation makes the card not that much of a tempo loss when not leveled up or having significant niche challenges.
also the 4 slot is mostly uncontested while the 3 slot is crowded in the decks braum wants to go into..
this and all the other 2 poro changes opens up a posibility of a competitive poro deck.
also crimson decks were not playing braum, now they are probably gonna implement him much more.
Anivia was underpowered indeed seems like in the end they gone with the mana cost change rather than a rework of sort like they did with braum.
at 6 mana you can play her with Chronicler of Ruin and duplicate her for probably the rest of the game, also she curves into the rekindlererBADCARDNAME so overall her power with shadow isles is boosted dramatically.
Now that's certainly a card right there! Even if the permanent Immunity is slightly dangerous, especially with effects like Lifesteal, I like this card.
KANSAS
Everything I can say about the Contract card has pretty much already been said. That said, I do enjoy the creativity of the card. Ornery King is better in terms of mechanical complexity. Its effect is cute, although 3/15 is an extremely weird statline (not that I have a problem with weird statlines, but some people might).
R
R… you ready for some criticism? The phrasing "must" doesn't really make any sense here, and Rush didn't exist in One Night in Karazhan so it doesn't really make sense for this card to use it.
Anchorm4n
I think Highlander DH is a thing, and I'm sure they'd like this card. Nice job.
DestroyerR
Ignoring the fact that I don't think there's enough token slots for all 4 tokens, I do quite enjoy this card.
BasilAnguis
I like the play on words with the card names, and the whole card is "funny" in a good way. Solid card overall I'd say.
And OH BOY have I gone all out with this one.
Tokens
Slaith is a way to represent humanoids transforming into dragons in gameplay. His dragon form keeps the rarity gem as it's technically the "same" card, in a similar vein to the Spellstones or the "worgen" cards from The Witchwood which swap stats in turn they're in your hand.
Aria's dormant condition is almost certainly not perfect, and the card is most likely horribly unbalanced, but that's where I come to you.
LoR is actually free to play, so budget shouldn't be an issue. You're guaranteed to get a free Champion wildcard every week (along with a lot more cards) so you don't have to spend money to get cards. I actually have a full collection from just playing around 3-5 games every day and not spending money (and also being a bit stingy about crafting cards, to avoid duplicates). You can buy wildcards (but not packs) but Riot intended LoR to make money off of cosmetics instead of buying cards. The only reason that you don't start with all of the cards is because building up a collection over time is fun.
Mad props for building a deck just to play unused legendaries!
I strongly recommend Blingtron 3000, as he gives you a second weapon to activate some pirates, potentially destroys an opponent's better weapon, and can remove Aluneth to stave off fatigue. He also shares mech synergy and is fun!
My best advice for idling is to have the tab open, but in its own browser window so that you can plop that browser window behind your main one and have it still think it has focus. That has never failed me.
Ok after feedback and trying to fit everything on the card in four lines, I came up with the new version of the same aspect:
Feedback
Show Spoiler
@linkblade91 - Love the idea behind Primal Fury because I like cards that incorporate cards that don't see play in Standard (hence my design as well). I think it could maybe even less since you still have to play the cards that are added.
@Demonxz95 - Really hope we get an expansion soon that focuses on Combo for Rogues. Always thought it was one of the class identities that hasn't seen much support. With that said, card is balanced and fair. Also the art is really cool.
@KANSAS - Like the re-design of it being a Rogue card. Checks the boxes of things Rogues want.
@BloodMefist - Love Something Fishy for the context of the card but seems like a major bummer for one deck in the meta and everyone else it doesn't really affect as you probably aren't wanting to target your own Murlocs. With that said, I think the best design is High Priestess Ishanah but could be a problem in Wild for Divine Spirit / Inner Fire as that one card puts 5 high health minions on the board at one time.
@Xarkkal - Agree with your statement about dropping the Rush if keeping it at 3 mana. Raising the card to 4 mana and keeping Rush is the idea I would personally like to see.
@Pokeniner - The idea of the card being a Mech is probably best since the change for Fel Cannons would be something unique that I don't believe has happened in the game yet.
@Nirast - It's one of those cute combos that have been seen in the game before but just not seeing why anyone would try and run this when we have broken stuff in the game that can get Rag out without a combo to set it up (Big Priest, Shaman, Rogue). I feel like the card could have at least Chillwind Yeti stats as the combo more than likely would be hard to pull off.
@anchorm4n - Illidari Blacksmith #2 scares me as you are going to get a free 3/4 taunt as we have seen that most DH aren't playing Outcast cards without its effect (plus I think it has to add a card to your hand or shuffle it in the deck so don't think this one works). The first design is better since you have to still play the Warglaives. The legendary is neat but as we already saw with Priestess that 7 Health is an issue and this card in my mind is even scarier of an idea that un-nerfed Priestess.
@grayghost39 - Not sure if the first option works since it doesn't add the card in some way and just casts it. You could have it where the card added to their hand has a discount and raise the base cost appropriately.
@CovenantKevlar - Think the card is great flavorwise and having 3 extra Lackey generators would be worth it for certain classes. It does run into the issue eggs have in the game right now and this does seem possibly stronger than eggs. Yes you have to play the Cable Rats but you also are getting 3 of them where eggs just summon a minion on death. Not sure if that is just my take but seem like it could be stronger for a value Lackey deck.
@MrRhapsody - Love Weather Forecast but definitely change Blizzard to a Shaman spell. Maybe Earthquake would work better.
Right ancharrr is risky but a staple in warrior right now. Chances are they get a new archetype and pirates lose relevance but the package with risky skipper and sky raider is powerfull!
Stealth rogue is indeed stronger according to HSreplay but the secret package is still very playable.
Metamorphosis is a must have in DH. Those attrition decks need the reach this card provides. It’s the best 2-turn-leathel setup in the game right now and I doubt it losing relevance in the archetype
I never played WOW but I know there are a lot of veteran achievements there that take way more time than completing the classic collection.
I don't see a downside to encourage collecting cards, I play the game mainly for that, there were some actual rewards for collecting certain tribes (pirates and murlocs) back before WoG
ANyway I think we will see once they announce the achievement/reward system overhaul.

I think you got the rarities mixed up. It looks like Bhouzu is supposed to be the token, and Dark Archivist is supposed to be the collectible card.
Aside from that, it looks super difficult since Warlock doesn't have many ways to copy things.
