Makes me almost want to be a Twitt-iot... almost. 

My first submission, nothing too fancy, but balanced(?) and i think it could be printed:

Anivia is really hard to remove though, and Anivia is much easier to level up as well also different regions.. bildgewater has a lot of 1 damage pings, freljord doesn't.

Also they are NOT the same effect Anivia hits the back line as well as the front line which is VERY relevant.

That being said Anivia is currently seeing no play so I don't think buffing her is such a big mistake (maybe a +1/+1 won't break her and push her to playability?) you don't want anivia to cost less than 6 cause then you can Chronicler of Ruin  her on the same turn you play her and mostly it's gg when that happens..

I think the main reason you don't see much of warmother control is Unyielding Spirit that card can't really be dealt with on that deck, if you are not in Ionia or have a big Atrocity target you can't really play big ramp decks.

so how would you buff her?

I dont know whats worst; creating an account or actually using it for a 1 in a million chance jackpot that doesnt leave me a millionaire.

Agreed. I avoid social media, which makes things like this a bit painful. That iPad is beautiful... but it ain't worth the trouble.

She is basically a 7 mana Miss Fortune. They both do the same thing. They hit everything for 1 damage on attack and both have an extra life. Anivia has her egg and Miss Fortune doesn't need to attack to set off her ability. So its the same thing. Then at level up Anivia only does 2 to everything when Miss Fortune does 3.

Again Anivia is 7 mana. Miss Fortune is 3 and does the same things and has a stronger level up. How does that make sense?

it's a total disgrace that the majority of these giveaways and promotations are either on Twitter or Twitter exclusive

I forgot to mention Lyra the Sunshard, the card would fit a unicorn Miracle Priest, but it's so expensive... Why isn't it a (3) 2/5 already?!

And with Lyra, Crystalline Oracle deserves a mention as well, as it is currently powercreeped by a Basic Card. Oracle could easily be a 2/1 and/or be focused on copying Spell cards only.

I follow him but still missed the tweet. Thanks for the heads up, this looks rad af. Praise to Yogg, hope I win 🙏

I like BG very much and with every passing month since its introduction I tend to play it more and more, with the exception being the season where Aoo and the year rotation happened. I think there are several reason for that situation: 

1. Before I used to play Arena and Standard ladder (started playing HS when Old Gods were the fresh exp) and I started to feel like there is nothing more for me to achieve - I am confident I can hit legend every season I care for it, and Arena became too repetitive and it is just frustrating over time how draw/luck dependent it is sometimes. A few times I felt like I got these 12 wins with very average decks just because I top decked like crazy in my games. My point is it may feel unfair both when you win and when you lose. I started to play wild just before BG were introduced and wild kept me in the game, because it was fresh for me. 

2. After BG's debut I felt like I am playing totally other game (which is mostly true). It was fresh and new for everyone so I felt like I am growing with the game, watched a lot of streamers and learned and saw new strategies being developed - it was fun for me. So I both played and watched BG more and more. 

3. In my opinion BG has the skill-luck balance reversed, when compared to traditional HS. BG is in its basics the RNG game, where luck is everything and your involvement in the game is limited. Players role is to find the way to manipulate the RNG/luck to their favor. Ranked/Arena have it totally the other way - you believe you play the game of skill where strategy is most important, but during the game it is often RNG/luck that plays most important role (card draw = rng).

So points for BGs here, as I feel more relaxed playing it and it causes much less frustration for me. Also, getting top 1 in BG simply makes me more happy than getting 12 arena wins or hitting legend again. 

4. You may ask why BG and not other autobattler. I was raised on warcraft 2, which I still occasionally play these days and I love Warcraft lore in general. That is why it is BG for me - I like being around these characters and i like HS's silly/easygoing attitude towards them. 

5. BGs games are not as much repetitive as other modes. When I feel like I am tired/bored of those tier 1/2 heroes, I pick other hero I did not play in longer time. I do not care for rating that much, but I manage to stay in the 9-9.5 k range for some time now. 

Sorry for the long post, I feel I got a bit carried away. 

Cheers guys! 

Hi everyone,

My name is DaZiel and I am presenting you a Hearthstone Battlegrounds Channel. I found this game a few months ago while watching Twitch and I enjoyed the pro players and their streams alot.

I recently decided to start my own youtube channel with battlegrouds games and I hope you will like it. Below is my first video.

Please let me know what you think and most important what mistakes I did during the game.

If you would like to subscribe too the link is:  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQoOfMIdQf09bnEuBpZG8ww?sub_confirmation=1

Thanks and waiting you on my channel!

✌ GIVEAWAY ✌ 1 PACK for an Youtuber who found one or more misplays in my game. I will award it in 7 days from posting this video so please also when you comment on YouTube video about my misplay, please mention your btag too.

Tks for the "handy table" :)

I'm not sure Shadows meant it as anything other than a harmless joke, similar to how friends can mock each other without meaning any offense. I guess the casual way he wrote it does rather mask it, but that's British humour I suppose.

On a related note, even with US spelling often making sensible choices to make words look like they sound, all forms of English have serious inconsistencies with how to spell a sound, especially with its use vowels. E.g. gone, bone and one really shouldn't all use o-n-e to make different sounds if we were serious about spelling. Personally I blame the fantastic choice of not using accents, despite having way more than 5 vowel sounds.

My personal favourite alphabet blunder is that once upon a time the English used the thorn rune alongside the Latin alphabet to give us a 'th' sound, which is jolly sensible given how common the sound is in English. For one reason or another it phased out, leaving us with the relatively esoteric 'th'. A greek theta would do too, but no, we've made our bed and I guess we're going to stubbornly lie in it.

Tl;dr: unless you're an etymologist all English spelling is rubbish, so we should be happy to joke about any and all variants of its spelling, whether that targets the version across the pond or whichever side of it you grew up on.

Thanks for the words of wisdom anchorm4n! 

But many of them are pronounced the same, right? I mean, there's no phonetic difference between 'color' and 'colour', if I'm not mistaken.

For me, it's kinda wild that English doesn't have an official academy regulating this kinds of things.

Thanks for all the feedback. I'm keeping Arcane Brilliance up my sleeve for now as I'm satisfied with it, but I can't decide if I will submit it, or Mana Droplet. Furthermore, I now sit with 3 versions of the cute little Droplet to choose between, all that I kind of like equally. Would like to see some people's thoughts before I make my final decision.

Page 3 Feedback:

A very similar card to Kirin Tor Chaincaster was already submitted, so I put in a replacement.  I wanted to find art like Shooting Star, but I couldn't find any, so here's two versions with different art. If I go with Riptide, I'll go with the 2-mana version just to be safe based on feedback.

Here's another card I made!

Each dragon in hand is transformed into a "Dragonrider" that adds the Dragon it used to be back to your hand when it dies. The idea is that you can mitigate the downside of expensive dragons by transforming them into cheap cards, at the cost of not getting the original card back until the Dragonrider dies. Alternatively, it could be changed to transform the Dragons into "Rookie Dragonrider", if this design seems too unintuitive.

I don't have the pass and can already play with the Pirates. Don't know about Aranna however.

Time Jump would be a way for Paladins to "skip ahead" of the Mana curve by discarding Dragons. (Edit: I changed Time Jump to 3 Mana so that it can't be used to gain insane early game starts)

Crystal Broodmother gives Mage a way to generate Crystal Whelps in hand, either to play for their Spell Damage or as Dragons to discard.

Verdant Protector is another self-discard synergy card that gives extra power to the minion that discards it.

Fatestealer helps mitigate the randomness of discard by letting you choose which card to discard (if a card says "discard a dragon", Fatesealer will only Discover among dragons in your hand). The low cost makes it easy to combine with other cards, and could even be used in a Warlock discard deck. If you discard a card on your opponent's turn, a random one of the discover targets is chosen, just like when a Discover Spell is cast by a card like Yogg-Saron. 

Keeper of Legacies helps to keep your deck full of Dragons, and grants them +2/+2 to make even the small ones useful

Dragon Knight gives Hunter extra face damage, Mage extra removal, and Paladin more Silver hand recruits. The Hero Power doesn't even have to be used that turn, which makes Dragon Knight almost always useful. 

Oh look another no-upgrade Tier 1 Saurolisk hero. Just remove this minion already
