Balance: I feel like Runaway Hatchlings cost be costed at 5 and it would be good but not game-breaking.  Maybe I'm underestimating the value of the battlecries but it seems a little weak to me.

Design: The whole summon and trigger their battlecries thing seems kind of awkward and inelegant to me.  I would make it draw 3 from your deck and reduce their cost to 0.  It wouldn't change the function of the card and would even make it a little stronger, as you can hold off on playing the minions.

Thanks for the feedback! I agree 5 mana is the better cost, and I ended up submitting it at that. The battlecries at first glance may seem weak, but this is designed to be played after you have 15 Carnassa's Brood in your deck. That turns this card into a good chance of being "summon three 3/2's and draw 3 cards" for 5 mana. 

As for summoning vs. drawing and changing the cost to 0, I have to disagree. The card is named Runaway Hatchlings. It goes against the flavor of the card to have control over when you play the minion. The entire flavor is based off of losing control over baby raptors. 

As for your cards, Tricks of the Trade still does it for me. I think it's the most interesting. It's both equally terrifying, yet a card I want to play with. 

Recurring Villain.  You think you've killed him, but then he comes back, see--like a cartoon villain!

So yeah, wasted many hours building decks around that silly card.  There was a slightly viable priest variant back when Arms only cost 2 mana, but pushing it back to 3 pretty much killed it.

Yeah, it looks like it´s fixed now (EU)

I only got Nemsy because I had to temp move to Florida after Hurricane Maria and decided to go to my first Fireside in West Palm Beach (which Slysssa won btw).

I'm glad others can get Nemsy without that type of life changing event.

I like the weapon the best.  The second version fits the quest better because the first version doesn't have any special synergies with Hack the System.  If you're worried about the infinite durability, as economicaooc said, you can make it like Stormhammer except for taunt minions.

FYI, if you go with the equal stat route for Lilliandra, anchorm4n made a card in this thread the falls into the same lines.

I like Lady Anacondra's effect and I think is very unique, but it reminds of a Kun the Forgotten King that's much harder to set up for slightly better stats.

I prefer the Blessed Templar, mostly because it does something new.  The Shaman card is solid, but it doesn't appeal to me as much because it's combining rather commonly used effects.

I don't know, this seems really strong in face warrior.  My gut says that it would be absolutely OP if unnerfed Fiery War Axe still existed.

”Don’t forget to tip the tauren!”  

Lucentbark for me! There was a time when I could fuck around in standard with it, copying it multiple times and giving my opponents fits (still a horrible win rate, but at least I won some games). However, that all changed when Plague of Death and The Amazing Reno attacked...

Chameleos has a soft spot in my heart too. I loved stealing quest rewards with it back in the day (Sulfuras in Priest???).

Infested Tauren then! 

Made a second one today, though I already submitted Portal Jumper.  This one is a Warrior card, and despite using a mechanic that Team 5 is mostly staying away from these days, I think it's a pretty fair card because of the condition in the Battlecry.

Another crazy game:

Thief Raza Priest vs Reno Grizzled Wizard Mage

So here's the most interesting part from this game: When I played Madame Lazul and I saw that epic in their hand, I knew I was in trouble. I had watched too many trolden/dane videos to know where the game was going, so I expected to say goodbye to my precious upgraded HP. On turn 8 the opponent played Siamat and forced me to answer it with Shadowreaper Anduin. The clock was ticking. On turn 10 The Amazing Reno came into play. "Oh - I said to myself - here it comes". But just when I said this, I topdecked Sir Finley Mrrgglton (from Archbishop Benedictus ofc) and decided to give them a taste of their own medicine. To my surprise the opponent drew the murloc too and they also changed my HP. So we were in this awkward situation:

Both players had changed their heroes, but instead of using upgraded HPs, they were stuck with the basic paladin (mine) and shaman (opponent) ones. A few turns later the opponent changed their profile picture yet again and turned into Frost Lich Jaina. I was in a rough situation, because my HP became completely unplayable. That was until I drew their Jaina on the following turn and the opponent conceded. So here's a recap:

I (Normal Anduin) -> Shadowreaper Anduin + Voidform -> What Does This Do? -> Totemic Call -> Reinforce -> Frost Lich Jaina + Icy Touch

Opponent (Jaina) -> The Amazing Reno + What Does This Do? -> Voidform -> Reinforce -> Totemic Call -> Frost Lich Jaina + Icy Touch

I just love stupid games like this.

So a random minion with stats equal to the unspent mana left? Or more like a token beast?

Super cool move by Hearthstone!!

That looks hilarious... I do wonder though, how often does it actually go off and you kill them vs they concede or leave?

I've been able to get this off on turn 8 thanks to The Coin

Thank you to all the feedback provided. Looks like my Shaman and Paladin ideas were the choices. Over concern for the strength of my first Shaman Murloc, I changed it up to the below to match up with Maelstrom Portal

I also changed the order and wording on my Paladin card to be a little more concise:

Might think of other ideas but pretty sure it will be one of these two depending on overall reactions.

It can totally be a pain in the ass! But I get why they made it that way - they want us to get together like Friday night Magic. Its pretty cool being at a place where everybody else loves the same games as you do. 

Glad everyone can get it now since we cant attend firesides during this pandemic! 

Quote From AngryShuckie

Every hero is at least a bit sarcastic or passive aggressive, but at least Nemsy can be interpreted as being friendly. The trouble with Gul'dan is that he is really good at portraying the character of Gul'dan, which is great provided you want to sound like an arrogant villain.

Mecha-Jaraxxus is almost as annoying as Annoy-o-Tron to me and I see your point about Gul'dan, but to me Nemsy always sounded like the most sarcastic bi*ch ever with her "Wow, well played!" emote.

The prompt for the Story mode now says 'Opens in 5 weeks' 👀

It's coming soon!

Even in the adventure, Demon Hunter cards are better than the other classes, KEKW

People are crying less this time, when Tyrande went free people almost assassinated Blizzard's CEO.

They did the right thing by making her free for a time. Not because you have to do something "special" to get her but because the "special" thing is literally impossible to achieve by some/a lot of players (just like Tyrande was).

Update:

Seems resolved on my Asia account now.

Update2:

.... and my EU account also.

I'm personally just hoping we get an alternative demon hunter hero as a reward, like how we got Arthas from Frozen Throne. Would be nice to have a choice if you want to play DH, but get tired of Illidan saying "Alas poor warlock" every time you play Skull of Gul'dan.
