Season 2 Winners Gallery
Below you will find all the winners of the Season 2 card design competitions.
First Day Of School
It's the first day of school! You're going to need to get to grips with the absolute basics of your class, so let's start with a simple assignment.
- You must create a 1-Cost Common Class minion
- To be clear: You must create a minion that costs (1), is Common, and is a Class card (not Neutral)
- Your card cannot be a Dual Class card
- It's the first day of school, that's way too advanced! Maybe wait a week.
This competition ran from August 31, 2020 until September 7, 2020.
Branching Out
We've seen what Scholomance Academy can offer, but perhaps you're looking for a different area of study? We've got you covered this week.
- You must create a Dual Class card using a non-Scholomance combination of classes
- Your card can be any combination of two classes, so long as it isn't one of the 10 options covered in the Scholomance Academy expansion. This means you have a total of 35 different class combinations to choose from!
This competition ran from September 7, 2020 until September 14, 2020.
Pure Of Heart
We're looking to give people the purest deckbuilding experience possible this week - get those Neutral cards away from us!
- You must create a card which has an effect when you have no Neutral cards in your deck
- We're specifically looking for the phrase 'no Neutral' here - no getting around it with something like 'only spells'
- Your card cannot be a Paladin card
- We've seen what Paladins have to offer already - what benefits do the other classes get?
This competition ran from September 14, 2020 until September 21, 2020.
À La Card
We're hungry for some thematic cards this week, so see what you can serve up!
- You must create a card which is themed around food or eating
- The most famous existing example is Priest of the Feast, but fellow Karazhan card Silverware Golem would also work - get creative!
This competition ran from September 21, 2020 until September 28, 2020.
Manual Of Monsters
It's time to invite some more of our favourite races to the party - who needs boring old humans?
- You must create a card which features a Tortollan, Tuskarr, Saurok, Vulpera and/or Furbolg in its art.
- To be clear - at least one of these species must be present. Use your best judgement on the art - if it's Turtley enough it'll probably count as a Tortollan, for example.
This competition ran from September 28, 2020 until October 5, 2020.
Deep Sea Designing
Grab your goggles and head to the shore - we're getting deep this week.
- You must create a card which is Underwater themed
- Your name and art should come together for an appropriately current reference - or any other oceanic option
This competition ran from October 5, 2020 until October 12, 2020.
B-U-R-S-T
Time to brush up on our spelling with a remedial class!
- You must create a card with Spellburst
- Remember, weapons can have Spellburst as well as minions!
This competition ran from October 12, 2020 until October 19, 2020.
Intense Magic
It's time we started casting some real spells around here!
- You must create a 10-mana spell
- Your spell must simply cost 10 mana - there's only 10 in the game right now, so plenty of room to get creative
This competition ran from October 19, 2020 until October 26, 2020.
I'm Rooting For You
It's time to enter the Tavern! The best minions have to be versatile, after all.
- You must create a minion which will appear in both traditional Hearthstone and Battlegrounds
- You will need to submit two cards - one with a normal mana cost, and one with a Battlegrounds Tier
- A comprehensive guide on how to create a Battlegrounds card in Hearthcards can be found here, but to summarise, you need to click the small settings option between the input and the preview
This competition ran from October 26, 2020 until November 2, 2020.
Summoned Skill
We're gonna need some backup! Good thing you have these guys to help you out.
- You must create a minion which summons a minion
- The minion can be randomly generated or summoned from a specific location like your hand - it's up to you!
This competition ran from November 2, 2020 until November 9, 2020.
Holding Out For A Hero
I need a Hero! It's gotta be strong, it's gotta be fast and it's gotta be... someone we haven't seen before.
- You must create a Hero Card
- Remember that all existing Hero Cards come with a change of Hero Power too!
- You cannot create a Hero Card featuring a character that already has a Hero Card
This competition ran from November 9, 2020 until November 16, 2020.
Old Gods, New Tricks
Quick, the Old Gods are coming! We'd best design a card to appease them...
- You must create a Class minion with the Corrupt mechanic
- Thankfully, Y'Shaarj isn't too picky - we don't mind if you leave out the Corrupted version of the card, given how tricky it might be to find appropriate art
- Your minion must be of a minion type not typically associated with your Class
- We need to make sure N'Zoth has enough fuel! Here's a list of the minion types we think are normally associated with each class:
-
Show Spoiler
- Demon Hunter - Demons
- Druid - Beasts
- Hunter - Beasts, Mechs
- Mage - Mechs, Elementals, Dragons
- Paladin - Mechs, Murlocs, Dragons
- Priest - Elementals, Dragons
- Rogue - Pirates
- Shaman - Elementals, Murlocs, Totems
- Warlock - Demons
- Warrior - Mechs, Pirates, Dragons
-
- We need to make sure N'Zoth has enough fuel! Here's a list of the minion types we think are normally associated with each class:
This competition ran from November 16, 2020 until November 23, 2020.
Grim Tutor
We've appeased two of the Old Gods, but there's still two left! We need another card for them...
- You must create a card that tutors a minion and/or spell
- To 'tutor' a card means to draw it from your deck - things like Claw Machine or Swindle are examples which draw from specific subsets.
This competition ran from November 23, 2020 until November 30, 2020.
All The Rage
It's time to get down to the nitty gritty and check out some stats!
- You must create a minion with a difference of at least 4 between its Attack and Health
- Pretty straightforward - Lorewalker Cho is an easy example, or Magma Rager in the other direction.
This competition ran from November 30, 2020 until December 7, 2020.
In The Swing Of Things
We're taking a swing at a rarely done type of weapon this week!
- You must create a weapon with 1 Durability
- There are very few examples in-game, so you can get creative!
This competition ran from December 7, 2020 until December 14, 2020.
Original Character, Do Not Steal
It's time to revisit some old favourites that have rotated to Wild and give them a brand new twist!
- You must create a Legendary minion for a Hearthstone Original Character not in Standard
- Any character that started in Hearthstone counts, including those that eventually made their way into WoW
- Your character must have been in Standard at some point - adventure characters don't count!
This competition ran from December 14, 2020 until December 21, 2020.
When Worlds Collide
It's time to get creative and try out some new combinations!
- You must create a card which has at least two set-specific keywords or mechanics (from different sets)
- There's only one card which has done this before - SN1P-SN4P - so you have a lot of room for new ideas
This competition ran from December 21, 2020 until December 28, 2020.
Oops! All Spells!
We better not see any minions in your deck - or at least, none when you play these cards!
- You must create a card which has an effect when your deck has no minions
- Remember that your deck just needs to have no minions - weapons and Hero Cards are allowed as well as spells if you want to try something interesting
- Your card cannot be a Hunter or Mage card
- We've seen how these classes tackle this idea - let's give a different class a chance!
This competition ran from December 28, 2020 until January 4, 2021.
The Price Is Right
The market is fluctuating - these Costs are all over the place!
- You must create a card which changes the Cost of a card
- Whether it changes its own Cost or that of another card is up to you
- Your card cannot change the card, only its Cost
- What this means is that Evolve effects or things like Deck of Lunacy do not count for the prompt - keep the card the same, just change the price tag!
This competition ran from January 4, 2021 until January 11, 2021.
Fond Fairewell
It's time to go out with a bang - get your game on!
- You must design a card with a Carnival Fairground theme
- Fairgrounds and carnival games abound this week - any mechanical interpretation is fine, we're purely looking for flavour here
This competition ran from January 11, 2021 until January 18, 2021.
