I hate ANY deck that's heavy RNG based, unless it's aggro, then it's more acceptable.
So basically: Definitely Priest, Mage both of them are heavy RNG themed. What else? Maybe Rogue if they play Tess/OtherClass Rogue? Warlock with Voidwalker/Lucky Dirty Rats?
Dunno, I feel like they could go deeper (heh..) about the inspiration and direction of the art.. All they really do is to show uncolored versions of the released product and tell a joke.
That being said I liked the bioshock reference for nautilus.
It was an interesting read.. But they didn't actually go over what the end design meant for most champions.. Why does karma 1 create random spells for example, why is ezreal about targeting enemies(I mean I know.. Cause of skills hots.. But still would like them to mention it)
whats ur thoughts on Bladefist? him and deathwing seem like extras. i do have the dragon but not the prime
Ive actually tried this list before. Its only really core in a mirror match or against egg warrior. Other than that, its a good solid removal tool against most other classes, but not really that core.
Here's another round of feedback. I'm sorry if I missed you!
Show Spoiler
@DestroyerR - None of these do it for me honestly. Millhouse there are already 2 versions submitted of, one of which is a mage, so I would suggest against that. The drawing card effect on him feels very random too. Hogger is interesting, but honestly pretty useless. It's an interesting take on Hogger flavor wise, but I just don't see this getting any play. Hakkar is way too dangerous. With Plague of Flames existing, and Warlock having so many ways to generate tokens, this would hit the board before most classes have any way to be able to answer it.
@KANSAS - I like it, my only complaint is I couldn't use it in Recruit hunter. I dream for this effect on a deathrattle, but the Battlecry makes sense for the flavor. The +1/+1 feels a little tacked on and underwhelming. Make sure you have a period at the end of your text.
@Swizard - This is a tricky one to balance… but I really like the flavor! One thing really fast, make sure you capitalize and bold the words "Legendary". See Dragon's Hoard as an example. Also, add a dash after "non" so it's "non-Legendary", see Corrupted Seer. Anyway, back to balance… I honestly think this might be fine at Prince Malchezaar's original mana cost of 5. It's a Psychic Scream, but you're shuffling cards into both decks, and adding Legendary minions to each deck, and since you're only removing non-Legendary minions from the board, there's a chance it's not even a full board clear. You might want to weigh other people's opinion on balancing, but my personal belief is you'd be good keeping it as a 5/5/6.
@DescentOfDragonsOp - The Battlecry on Alexstraza is very underwhelming, it's basically casting Overflow without the card draw and getting 5 armor instead, all for 1 more mana. You have a lot of room to work with to make that Battlecry more interesting. The HP is fine. None of it is very exciting honestly, I understand the flavor but it's too basic for a Hero card. Also, watch your spaces and your capitals, and your spelling on "characters".
@MenacingBagel - gave me a chuckle, but this wouldn't make it into Hearthstone. I'd probably give this 2 stars because the flavor is good and it made me laugh, but it's not realistic to ever be in the game.
@bigcums - I'm not sure about the flavor on this, but I see some potential with some tweeking. Adding Rush doesn't make any sense. Captain Greenskin gives your weapon +1/+1. If you don't want to go with weapon flavor, I suggest you keep the +1/+1 flavor by having this give the pirates you discover +1/+1 and ditching the Rush. This card played with Captain Hooktusk could then summon you 3 buffed pirates, and Hooktusk takes care of the Rush. Greenskin giving minions Rush does not fit flavor wise at all. I'm not going to point out every single one, but watch you typing, you have spaces in incorrect locations. I don't know about others, but I dock a star for each grammatical mistake I find, which can quickly take a 5 star card down to a 1 star card. That might be more harsh than most people judge it, but grammatical errors in my opinion completely ruin a card, because it sticks out like a sore thumb.
@Zeratia - I think flavor wise, you should have it be 3 random enemy minions. I'd suggest spelling out "Three". It looks weird to me starting a sentence with a digit, and the original Magtheridon has three spelled out.
We are using our Plague of Flames aggressively early on, and it is always worth a deck slot if it means protecting yourself from various archetypes - mostly to annoy Jade druids - but it also help countering mages ;)
I'm glad that Priest has moved to become a more board centric class which actually uses minions and stuff, but come on Blizz, Priests do more than just resurrect the dead. You might as call it the Necromancer class because all they do is sit on their ass as their tentacle monsters rip you a new one over and over again.
Finished my climb to legend with Odemian's bomb warrior, a very nice deck in a DH/rogue crowded meta (secret rogue is hard to beat with egg warrior and but went 7-0 against them with this deck.)
My path to legend was quite simple : tempo DH to get to diamond fast then egg warrior, it seemed all simple until d3 but at this point I faced a TON of secret galakrond rogue which seemed to counter me pretty hard.
Then I remembered Odemian (French pro player from Solary) had a bomb warrior list, so I gave it a try. It worked wonder, I got 9-4 to get legend, including a 7-0 against rogue (yeah it was that many rogues!)
I also managed to win against priest, which was litterally impossible with egg warrior.
So here's the deck, don't hesitate if you face lots of rogues and DH.
@FrighteningTorus: Ah yes, pass me that "Pixie Dust." I honestly really enjoy the flavor on Back Alley Brightwing (and it fits Gadgetzan so well!), though it's not something that Blizz would ever publish. The mechanics support the theme, and the balance is good as well. The main thing I'd want to see changed is the art on Pixie Dust, because it doesn't feel like Hearthstone art, and- not to say one decision is better than another, but- it's also worth considering whether you want to use the original BW statline. What sorts of decks do you envision making use of this?
While we have not currently nailed down what we're going to do to close out the Season here at OoC, on that other website we used to end a Season with a series of "mini-competitions" in November, then take the holidays off before returning in January.
Brightwing took her ventures to Gadgetzan and joined with the Kabal I guess. Since healing isn't a mage thing and priest doesn't really have spell damage I deiced to just combo them together, and warlock was just in the package. I mean yeah the flavour is off but I'm not really sure how to fix it currently.
Odd Demon Hunter: I find it highly disrespectful that the latest parvenu finds an effective Odd deck while other classes struggle with staying alive in the Wild meta despite their deeper card pool.
