My (current) favorite champion in Runeterra is Ashe, because I love controlling the board with Frostbite. I've been using MegaM0gwai's deck from almost four months ago, and I haven't made any changes to it so...yeah. It's still working for me ^_^ I would say that the Rimefang Wolf is my favorite non-champion card in the deck: pulling Frostbitten enemies to their death is always satisfying, and has led to a couple different concedes.
Please fill free to discuss the cards you feel are broken or overpowered in any mode of play. I'll start of with unyielding spirit. If you are playing expedition mode where you are limited to the picks you get for your deck, the chances of having a single card that will counter unyielding spirit is slim. Even if you manage to get 1 or 2, there is a high chance that you will not draw them. So, if this happens to you, you are just SoL if you get put up against it because its incredibly overpowered. I cannot believe Riot thought hmm this seems okay...
Could you give me a hint for 12? I have no knowledge of WoW or the Wow tcg, and I don't really feel like flipping through every weapon in the game.
Well, I am not good at giving harmless tips (especially for #12).
I want to say there aren't that many MACES in hearthstone, so it's better to look for all collectible weapons and click on the aforementioned type. If you still need a hint, write me another message.
I haven't played enough with or against all epic cards to know exactly which ones are underperforming, but based on my personal experiences I would take a look at the following epics:
Jagged Taskmaster: I've only tried this in one deck with a pretty high amount of 1 cost units but I quickly ended up cutting it because the 1 attack just did not make enough of a difference to justify running this card.
Aurora Porealis: I think this one is pretty obvious. The cost is too high for the value it generates. I think Riot could play around with some immediate effects like letting the card summon one or two poros directly on the board, or making it activate a poro snax effect immediately.
Overgrown Snapvine: I have actually almost won an otherwise unwinnable game because of this card while playing a spider deck (sadly I lost to an Unyielding Spirited Radiant Guardian). However, I still think at the very least this card deserves a +1 health buff, probably even more.
Ren Shadowblade: I have never seen this card being succesful. On some very few occasions my opponent would play this and I would be a little worried because I did not have a good answer for it, but every time I still ended up winning because I was still able to remove Ren or because Ren's effect did not matter enough.
Shadow Flare: I'm actually a bit hesitant to include this one because I have seen it being used effectively, but almost every time I have had this in my hand I wasn't able to find a good moment to use it. Could just be me though.
Spectral Matron: I think this one also has quite some potential but I haven't seen it used to great effect yet. Maybe a small buff could give it the push it needs to be viable.
If I missed some obvious ones it's either because I haven't had enough experiences with the card to say anything useful about it, or because I'm afraid that buffing said card could easily lead to it becoming a problem card.
So there are clearly a lot of people confused about how my card would work (myself included), which probably means it is not a great design. I have taken the base idea in a new direction and created this new design:
The idea is that any buffs to the original on the board would also effect the copies, but also any hand or deck buffs that affect the copies would affect those on the board, or elsewhere, too.
Is this easier to understand? Is the cost okay? I figured there is no immediate benefit to the battlecry, but it shouldn't have straight vanilla stats or it would just be run by any old deck to resist fatigue.
EDIT: I realised just after posting this that all the copies would generate more copies. Do I increase the mana cost and make this a feature? If not, how should I alter the card text to prevent this?
"Nothing more punk rock then a little bit of blood."
A vanilla minion on curve but can be a board flip if you are barely hanging on. A very specific condition that can be met but a powerful one.
He's a great host. An out-going socialite that makes a wicked martini.
A pre-cursor to Project cards that would be later seen in Boomsday Project. Didn't know if the health gain was too much but figured it was playing off the idea of a drink helping raise one's spirit to party. Could drop it if I must.
Please forgive me if there's a thread on this already - but is there a page on THIS site with easy to grab avatar sized images of popular Hearthstone characters and heroes? I know that other sites have similar pages where you can grab a jpg and update your avatar. Just wondering if there's one here that I missed. Thanks!
Brings back memories about the first time I got this myself. It was one of those priest vs token druid games. First time round he beat me with Potion of Madness, I conceded and moved on. Then for some reason the very next game was against the same dude. I played around potion of madness hard and he eventually lost. He sent me a friend request, told me where to go, then unfriended almost as fast.
Must take a very specific kind of human being to send a friend request just to scream vulgarities. After a while it just got funny to be honest.
But hey, there are genuinely players out there that actually recognize a competitive game for what it is and pat the other side on the back with a healthy gg. And it is for these guys that I just can't refuse friend requests, even if I get flamed more often than not.
Thanks for the feedback guys. I have a new iteration of my card, which I think is much more fair. Still very RNG-heavy, but you can manipulate it by playing it when you are behind on board.

I wish more people would use this feature positively, so that you're not cringing when you see that "A recent opponent would like to be your friend!" Yeah, usually they're not looking to be your friend. But hey, sometimes they are!
I too wish people would be more courteous about it. Its always gotta be competition for some reason
I usually accept when I win and people send me a friend request. Either they are friendly and want to say GG and chat about the game, or they are salty and want to flame me. If they are salty, then I just chuckle a little, unfriend them, and then move on. Sometimes though it surprises me how salty some people can get. One time I was playing a long control game and my opponent had lethal, but before killing me he kept on dragging the minion around the board and emoting. At the end of the game I sent him a friend request, he didn't respond for about 10 minutes, then he said "EZ GAME" and unfriended me. Another time a friend of mine was playing Handlock v Handlock and it was a pretty good game. At the end he sent him a friend request to say GG and complement him on his Handlock deck. His opponent accepted only to say "loser" and then unfriend him.

Ewwww! This brawl is gross. Ew, yuck, blergh! I'm gonna throw up! Is that... 7 spells in my first 10 draws?! Bleeeeergh!
Ugh... I'm better now... I'm be- what's that smell? Is it... two murk-eyes on the enemy board? BLEEEERGH!
I don't feel so goo- is that... Murloc Knight summoning another copy of itself... Bler... blaurgh!
Fuck this brawl. A Classic pack is not worth this sorry excuse of a game mode.
Riot Wants to Know What Epic Cards Aren't Getting the Job Done - Changes Coming in an Upcoming Patch

Two ideas this week:
"Nothing more punk rock then a little bit of blood."
A vanilla minion on curve but can be a board flip if you are barely hanging on. A very specific condition that can be met but a powerful one.
He's a great host. An out-going socialite that makes a wicked martini.

It would be nice if the clues were ordered top to bottom in columns instead of in rows going from the bottom up.

The saltiness of people never ceases to amaze me. People are just ego tripping when they win or they blame everything under the stars when they lose.
