Why doesn't Kryxis have a Demon tag though? I get that it would push him further towards being OP because you'd get more possibilities to negate the discard, but if that creature isn't a Demon I don't know.
Feel free to hate me but imagine the glory of this card's effect lasting "for the rest of this game" and combining it with OG Benedictus. I'm sure it's healthier this way for reasons you've all pointed out, but Thief Priest is a fun archetype in Wild and this won't help much because you can't reasonably expect to steal more than one card.
No inspiration for me so far so I'll probably take the week off. Gotta say your cards look amazing though! So many 5 stars contributions already. Hats off to Demon for suggesting the prompt as well!
I totally get all your feedback for my card but I'm struggling to improve it. Here's another try with a more interesting condition... Not completely happy with the artwork and it has a pretty narrow target archetype-wise, but it's flavorful and imagine the things this could do with a single well placed Explosive Trap. Please note that it's possible to upgrade it by killing your own minions, which is not unheard of in Deathrattle decks.
It's amazing what you're still able to produce when you're out of ideas lol. I give you that it's not the most creative design I've ever seen, but I really like the flavor. Balance looks good as well so this is a neat placeholder until inspiration strikes.

The Bounty Hunter is really really cool, easy 5 stars from me! The Riftmaster is too similar to Tamsin's hero card for my taste.

Hmmm I've got to say the Dragon requirement in Shaman does feel kinda out of place. Maybe make it Elementals with the Opal Spellstone instead? I see a lot of potential here since good Spellstone art including upgrades is difficult to find.

Super cool, super flavorful, nothing to criticize from my side. You should add the info about what gets upgraded to the description box just in case.
Reached 1.500 wins with Hunter yesterday, the first class to come that far. I think this is a good time for Blizzard to introduce new Hero Power frames for 1.500, 2.000 and 3.000 wins. :P
Trying to give DH the last 95 wins for golden Illidan now, which is kinda hard in Wild. Still not liking Shaman as a whole. Maybe 1.000 wins Gul'dan next?
Rise of Shadows saw quite some Deathrattle support and also Sylvanas' sister Vereesa Windrunner so this might fit pretty well imo. It obviously negates the League of Explorers vs. League of E.V.I.L. theme but that's just that. I'm also aware of the fact that this a massive preemptive powercreep on Jewel of N'Zoth and that there's a similar card in Amulet of Undying. On the plus side, resurrecting Deathrattle cards fits Sylvanas' flavor pretty well imo and I like the simplicity of the effect. What do you people think? Which artwork do you prefer (I'm leaning towards the one on the right)? Will add feedback later!
I'm totally with you and I'm saying that as an Aggro player. The 40 Health option gives midrange decks a chance to survive long enough to take back control and that's great. As long as the meta doesn't turn into a combo clown fiesta, I'm super happy with the Prince.
One of the devs said on twitter that this is expected to be the most meta defining free legendary they've ever dished out and that they're ready to adjust the numbers (40 health / 40 cards) if necessary. I wouldn't write the card off just yet.
Okay, I'm gonna say it: I don't like the new logo. Maybe it just takes some time getting used to it, but I already miss the old one.
Other than that, I don't see many changes on mobile. I'll give more feedback once I've tried desktop.
Edit: forgot to say thank you. Thank you for all your efforts to make this a great, informative, wholesome and creative place for us. I really appreciate it.
I'm a little surprised about the participation as well, last week's theme was way more difficult imho... anyway, here's some feedback:
Demonxz95
Both are cool, but Envoy is a little less exciting and just too blatantly working around the only 1 Legendary per deck rule for my taste. Wave of Evolution on the other hand goes down a newish path since there aren't many legendary spells in the game right now and the effect fits Shaman but is executed in a different way than usual. Nice work! Regarding your feedback, do you think I should make my Hero Power targeted or just create a different one? I tend to just keep it as it is since the weak Hero Power balances out the pretty strong Battlecry of the hero card.
BloodMefist
Both are well-designed and useful, but none of them has me terribly excited somehow. Can't really tell you why though… Don't get me wrong, I'll still give you 4 stars for each of them, it's just that last spark that's missing for me. Out of the two of them I'd probably go with the Shaman card even if it's a bit unlucky that we've both created "Witch Doctor" cards (that's a spelling error by the way… according to Wowpedia, you've got to make it two words -> "Witch Doctor") Fingers crossed rl stuff sorts itself out quickly and the way that's best for you!
Wailor
I really really like it since it's both funny and pretty useful. That said, I much prefer the first (random) version for just the reasoning you've pointed out yourself.
BasilAnguis
Very solid, interesting and well balanced card. The only gripe I have with it is that the art doesn't look much like Hearthstone. Are the characters WoW-lore based?
linkblade91
I really like the flavor of the card and that it supports the SI:7 archetype. That said, I'd go with the one that copies the top card of your opponent's deck since it's way more interesting. I'm not sure if all out copying the card is the way to go here though, I feel like becoming a 1/1 copy would be better. You might not be able to fit that information into the textbox though. One of my favorites this week for sure anyway!
I found something very flavorful and lore-friendly in my art storage and came up with this idea:
Things I'm considering and I'd like to hear your thoughts about (on top of general feedback):
- The Battlecry might be strong enough to raise the Cost of the hero to 7.
- Both the Battlecry and the Hero Power are all out transforming themed at the moment, but I could mix things up a bit with the Hero Power summoning a Tiki or a Voodoo Figurine with an interesting effect.
- The Hero Power got the random targetting treatment to avoid it being completely OP. I could make it targeted without the Cost reduction though.
- I took the Frog token from OOC's card data base, but it has the Legacy watermark... is that the correct one here?
I haven't been that excited about one of my custom card ideas in quite a while :) Please help me polish this card to bring out its full potential!

Cool idea!
Probably too clunky to get discounted much so I gave it the Beast tag and Taunt. Might be useable in Mana cheat scenarios.
Congrats to Mr. Rhapsody! Very flavorful card, great work!

Seconded, Goliath to the rescue!
Happy birthday!

I'm a little sad to see people did not share the enthusiasm I felt for my card :/
