March of the Legion
| [A Custom-Made Booster Expansion for Hearthstone] |
The schemes are set, the troops are rallied, and the "FOOLISH MORTALS" are tempted... The Legion is returning to Azeroth!
This time they've come prepared with 54 powerful class specific cards! (with more potentially on the way)
Each set provides new "DEMONICALLY ENHANCED" support for a specific class archetype that has previously been low tier or even un-played.
Author's Note
I'm still quite new to custom card creation, and this is both my first time attempting to make a cohesive set, and my first time publishing anything online. I had a lot of fun creating this, but I'm aware it could almost certainly use some tweaking, so I'd really appreciate constructive criticism!
With that in mind, this is what I'm calling a Booster Expansion, a small update to bring under-used deck archetypes into the Meta by giving them a Boost in the form of new niche class cards, so for each set I will recommend some existing cards that I would use alongside my supplement cards.
As one final aside before we get into the cards themselves, despite generally being a Wild player, I designed these cards with the Standard Format in mind, considering that I find that the Standard Meta is more open to new and emerging archetypes, and It was a lot easier in terms of balancing.
Thanks for reading! And without further ado...
But what's an invasion without invaders? 8 Demonic Commanders! (and uh... 1 very enthusiastic Troll?) Lead this army to it's glorious conquest.
Let's meet them now!
Warlock Cards
Archimonde, Lord of the Legion has set his Warlocks to initiate the invasion, shuffling portals into their decks to create an unending swarm of empowered Felhunters in the mid to late game, closing out the match. Paired with on draw effects, and re-shuffles, those puny mortals won't stand chance!
Some cards I would recommend for this deck include:
Druid Cards
Xavius, first of the Satyrs forces his Druids to engage in sacrilege by cutting down the very trees they once protected in order to power their demonic forces in this altered style of Token Druid, add in more Treant generation, and Buff cards, for a unique spin on an old classic.
Some cards I would recommend for this deck include:
Hunter Cards
Hakkar tames monstrous beasts from the abyss, granting the weaker specimens to his Hunters to summon in smaller sizes in order to then set up for stronger minions, and swing turns later on, combine these with the newest Quest, and a few other powerful beasts, and burn your enemies to ash!
Some cards I would recommend for this deck include:
Mage Cards
Jaina was a Dreadlord spy all along! and even now, she and her Mages are still keeping secrets, their lies provide ample defence though, which could lead to a formidable control style secret deck alongside the anti-aggro secret tech added in the last expansion.
Some cards I would recommend for this deck include:
Paladin Cards
Yrel, once a beacon of hope on her homeworld, now leads her broken band of Paladins by the Legion's whims, sapping power from Divine Shields, in order to create a strong midrange minion based deck taking advantage of one of the Paladin's oldest but most un-used mechanics.
Some cards I would recommend for this deck include:
Priest Cards
Veneratus peered for too long into the void and lost his mind, now he leads a dark cult of Priests who turn light into shadow for the Legion, this deck legitimizes shadow Priest both as a value style deck summoning large minions without the drawback, and as a potential combo deck akin to old Mind Blast Priest.
Some cards I would recommend for this deck include:
Rogue Cards
Gallywix is always looking to profit, and a Demon invasion is the perfect distraction for him and his Rogues to rob the citizenry of Azeroth blind! These cards in addition to other thief style pieces could create a solid while varying deck, being fun and competitive!
Some cards I would recommend for this deck include:
Shaman Cards
Zan'do was banished from his tribe for his unorthodox methods, but the Legion has welcomed him with open arms, his Shamans can utilize Overload with ease, gaining more than they lose to make a competitive Mana cheating deck.
Some cards I would recommend for this deck include:
Warrior Cards
Mannoroth is the taskmaster of the Legion's armies, his Warriors are pushed to their limit, their rage makes them stronger, and their pain is the path to victory in this self damaging enrage style control deck, making use of Taunts that if not killed in one hit, get stronger.
Some cards I would recommend for this deck include:
Tokens
Post Script
Hey! If you made it all the way down here, I'd like to sincerely thank you for reading through the whole thing! Like I said up top, I really would love feedback, so if you have any notes at all, please do leave them below. I'll probably be checking this thread religiously for at least the next few days, sharing for the first time can be nerve wracking you know? Either way, I had fun doing this, so I suppose it's all worth it already, If I'm honest I rather like just looking at it's formatting, very pretty... unless it all messes up when I press "Create Thread", first time posting after all. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Bye!
