yes it is, I was excited at first but then I just dropped it cause I felt it was just another HS and didn't want to put time into it..
also it had a playable adventure they were selling for 20 bucks with around 30 very strong cards that's when I totally dropped it, you can craft those cards but then :/ they are more F2P friendly than HS but I didn't like that adventure.. didn't feel like playing that just to stay up to date on the meta and honestly it felt really uninteractive in terms of what you could do against your opponent..
Anyway I would suggest to try it.. I played it a year ago so it might be different now.
Anyway I think runettera is better anyway.. having more fun watching/playing it I had with gwent and it replaced HS in my youtube/twitch watch list.
Thank you to everyone who has provided me feedback so far; apologies for not reciprocating sooner! Anyway, let's go:
Show Spoiler
Cg8889 - Mur-lox is busted, as Sinti has noted, with the Mech OTK pretty easy to set off. You could theoretically remove the Mech ability and still get away with the card functioning for Murlocs.
bigcums - I like Light Burst the most, turning healing into another board clear for the Paladin. You don't need the first "All" in the text, though.
anchorm4n - Treants are not technically a tribe/minion type, so that could be why they don't have one :P That being said, I think 5-mana is fine; it might even be too weak at that point. Does anyone even use Demonwrath anymore?
KANSAS - Goblin Dentist is weird: paying 7-mana for a 2/4 that doesn't do much to the board is terrible, but the six Coins could swing things significantly. You could always spam all six Coins to get another medium-sized play in the same turn; might be a lot of tempo. I have no idea what deck you would use the Dentist in, though, but that could be my own fault for not understanding the Rogue well.
CursedParrot - I don't like the idea of giving Armor to your opponent; that's weird. I would stick with the version on the left, although it is still rather complicated. Maybe bump it up to an Epic?
MenacingBagel - I like Mr. Chu: he's especially painful against opponents who want to draw a lot of cards. Kind of like a tech card in that sense, but he can function on his own as well.
BloodMefist - Terrorguard Devastator seems like a (slightly) lesser version of Natalie Seline, which is both a good and bad thing. I feel like you're stepping on her toes a bit, and you get to run two of them. I doubt people will hold it against you, though; I might be the only one who cares. I like Corpse Explosion, being a repeatable Volcanic Potion; we haven't seen a Priest card like that since Excavated Evil, IIRC.
meisterz39 - lol "Trample". I like it. I think you can get away with the spell costing less, especially considering it's a Legendary and its usage is very specific.
MrRhapsody - The flavor is much better with Abusive Mistress, so I'd say "fuck it" and go with her, but if it bothers you then maybe don't do that lol. I like the card, regardless.
TheHoax91 - I really like Felo'melorn: it requires setup, and it has solid flavor for anyone who knows WoW. You don't need the comma, though.
Valor1204 - Hey, welcome to the website :D We love to see new people participating in the card design competitions. I think it's fine if it bounces multiple times, since the third minion in the chain would be your own, and it would be difficult to bounce it to a fourth minion without everyone being low Health. To be honest, it might be too weak: Defile and Demonwrath achieve a similar outcome but cheaper and simpler.
DestroyerR - I think the effect is too narrow for a "destroy the enemy hero" effect, and too reliant on the correct language. It just simply wouldn't work for a global game.
Pokeniner - Your minion is going to die, and it has a psuedo-Rush effect, so in that sense it's kind of like casting a spell that says "Deal 4 damage to a random enemy minion and any excess to the other enemy minions." Is that fine for 3-mana? I would say so if it was a class minion, but maybe not for a Neutral. I could go either way and be fine.
grumpymonk - I like Keeper Remulos, if only because "maximum" is a more unique usage of the letter X when compared to other peoples' cards. I think 12 Mana Crystals could be very interesting gameplay-wise, although it also would undermine the nerf to Aviana lol.
Demonxz95 - As I said before, I like Felfire Fury; I can see it being a real card. It might not be exciting enough to be a winner, though :/
With all the elusive decks that i'm seeing playing fizz is kinda bad unless you got tons of spells to let him survive versus other elusive followers/champions.
Pretty nice when you can block their spells with fizz tho.
Same reason why teemo is bad but teemo has the extra downside of being more targetable by spells compared to fizz.
I'm technically close to unlocked all champions. I only need 2 Twisted Fates, 1 Gankplank, 1 Swain left to unlock and I currently hold 6 champion wildcards. I could technically unlock all the champions, but I have not had the desire to play Twisted Fate yet. The only reason I don't burn my wildcards to unlock everything is I don't want 750 shards. It seems very inefficient. If I knew getting a duplicate champion would result in a wildcard, I would clean out and unlock.
On a side note, does anyone else have issues unlocking all the rare (blue) cards? I have more wildcards than cards to unlock with champion, epic, and commons, but I still have like 49 rares left to unlock?
Afraid that my other idea was too divisive, decided to try another approach. This idea fits in with the Menagerie Paladin idea while also helping the class that lacks resource generation. Works like Underbelly Angler but instead of a random Murloc, will add the same minion to your hand.
Neither Mech nor Murloc should be in bold.
I feel like there's a way to break this, but I'm not sure what way that is.
I start 2nd against their Kobold Librarian, I manage to setup a couple of tokens + Never Surrender!: they don't play Defile. I keep building tokens and pinging face at each turn
Then at t-3 after their Sense Demons, I put in place Infectious Sporeling. They play Voidcaller nonetheless (probably because they had Skull ready), and get punished hard.
Then I can't remember their t-6 but it was irrelevant, I play Sunkeeper Tarim and win.
I had the perfect hand (yet I didn't even play Highlander cards, which is kinda sad in the face of my homebrew purposes), but so did they, and I won. D3 conquered.

Good job on making your post formatted normally and without centered text! I think you’re on the right track towards making your posts sound less righteous and annoying. However, at this point people are so used to you going “I told you so” about Freljord being strong that even though your original post in this thread is fine, people still view it as an “I told you so” without you explicitly mentioning it. Also, your follow up posts do have more of a tone of superiority, so that’s still something you need to work on.
At this point, I think you just need to give up on claiming that Freljord is the best region. Even if you’re right, people will still be annoyed that you brought it up because they’ll see it as an “I told you so” instead of a genuine analysis and conversation. If you want to post more about what how you think the meta is changing you can, but be warned that if you focus too much on how you were right and everyone else was stupid, people will continue to downvote you.

I hate this brawl. Any brawl that is discover a card to start your turn takes way too fucking long, and is always so dependent on rng. Wish I could be one and done with this one, but alas.... here goes attempt #4. Shit luck has to go away eventually.
I love this brawl. I'm also always happy to see Demon Hunter available to play, 'cause that's the only way I'm getting my golden DH cards until they make an actual Control deck for them.
I like her. I hope she has some nice lines. Especially for the Greeting - Illidan's sux
I hope she is not as silly as annoy or nemsy. That was a little to much for me.
I expect her to be similar to Elise (for obvious reasons), at least in tone and vocabulary, so she's not likely to be especially silly. All she has to do is provide a less serious alternative to Illidan, which is hard to fail at.

I'd like to share a hilarious battlegrounds game where the top 3 was me playing pirates against two murloc players. I had two Cap'n Hoggarrs which allowed me to buy any pirate for free (if I also sold them afterwards) while also buffing my golden Salty Looter to astronomic proportions. Both of my opponents had a lot of health left so the game kept going for quite a while, and for some reason neither of them seemed to be getting any Gentle Megasaurs. When I got to tavern six however, I decided that it should stay that way when I immediately found myself some megasaurs:
Show Spoiler
And lo and behold, the last remaining opponent did not get a megasaur and my big fat pirates were able to carry me to victory!

[Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)
I walk where no one else goes
I seek everybody's foes
True, I may be lacking some substance
But then, my danger can't be seen at first glance

2nd attempt and done, opened a Bloodmage Thalnos, 2 rares and a golden common! Not gonna play tavern brawl till next week.

Them: Control Cubelock
Me: Aladdin Paladin (Aggro Highlander)
I start 2nd against their Kobold Librarian, I manage to setup a couple of tokens + Never Surrender!: they don't play Defile. I keep building tokens and pinging face at each turn
Then at t-3 after their Sense Demons, I put in place Infectious Sporeling. They play Voidcaller nonetheless (probably because they had Skull ready), and get punished hard.
He plays Skull of the Man'ari, I play Acidic Swamp Ooze.
Then I can't remember their t-6 but it was irrelevant, I play Sunkeeper Tarim and win.
I had the perfect hand (yet I didn't even play Highlander cards, which is kinda sad in the face of my homebrew purposes), but so did they, and I won. D3 conquered.
Sometimes I actually feel like a good player.

Well, then this card is broken :)

you get 1/4 of the champ, i believe it is 750 shards but i dont get at this point yet so i might be wrong.
I Miss My X - Card Design Competition Discussion Thread
As far as I can tell, that only applies to Echo cards. Everything else of that nature (even "repeatable this turn") can still cost 0

Except for the occasional one brawls are always one and done. Thats much ppl hate to play rng matches

Mechwarper + Skaterbot= infinite dmg
or does it not go under 1 mana anymore, same as Echo cards?

Question is, what happens when you have all the Champions? I doubt you would get Champion Wild card, probably shards then, eh?

You don't even draw a card at the beginning of your turn. You are solely dependent on your pick of three card. (At least that happened to me)

I like the Paladin one a bit better, but both looks good.
Maybe Light Burst could be 1 mana higher? Right now it seems like a more flexible Flamestrike.
