I must say I'm interested. It might be good in the right deck, but what's even more important, my hopes for a Deathrattle focused Questline are rising.
Wild: Double Augmented Elekk into double Garrote and next turn draw them all with Grand Empress Shek'zara. As usual, the trick will be to survive until that late in the game and a do nothing turn 10 on top of that.
Ooze is only a problem if the last boar dies on your opponent's turn since everytime you swing the Sword, it destroys their Mana Crystals. But I agree with you that Druid will be one of the harder classes to pull this off in standard.
Anyway... this has huge potential as a reload in swarm decks. My first idea was Enchanted Raven but we could even see a Murloc Druid emerging :D
Just go ahead, I wouldn't have guessed it on my own either. Figuring out what each hint means is what makes this game fun for me, winning a question is just the cherry on top.
Paladin will love this. I've seen some ideas for Priest as well, but the other classes might struggle to build a deck with this that makes it worth running it without going out of their way too much.
Hmmm... consistency will be this guys biggest problem, but it sure is a super fun card. Maybe there's a way to abuse this with Celestial Alignment as well.
I'm rather skeptical as well, but it probably won't be garbage. Sad to see a Legendary Hunter card with a Deathrattle that doesn't work in a traditional Deathrattle Hunter list (since you don't want to trigger the Deathrattle).
Thank you all for your feedback! While the majority seems to prefer Lil'idan, I feel way more comfortable with Mechnapper. The flavor wasn't immediately clear to everyone, so I've zoomed in on the art, that hopefully helps. Now I'd be very grateful for some help with the balance. Some of you said it's too weak and wouldn't see play, so I made another version that steals a Mech with up to 3 Attack. Which one is better? Any other ideas regarding the stats? Should it be cheaper?
Looks like Zilliax makes the whole difference, but that card was run in nearly every deck as long as it was in Standard, so yeah, maybe it's worth it to go to 3 Attack.

Arkasaur
I still like it. Doesn't it miss a "random" in the text though? I'm curious what the others have to say about Rush. It's a tough decision.
R
Cunning Tidehunter is cool, btut I'd lower the Cost and the stats a bit. Tidefin Murloc is too strong imho. Library Magicfin has the worst art of them all and a very small pool (lol) to discover from. I'd go with Cunning Tidehunter.
Demonxz95
Both are solid design, but I think Glazier Crystalfin can be used in more decks, so that's the one I'd go with.
shatterstar 1998
I like the Discover version of the Tradeable card. It's quite strong, but you probably can't abuse it because it gets shuffled into your deck when you trade it. Nice idea! Murgatha isn't something I'd go with because the art and the name are already in the game and the effect is just too strong for my taste.
Wailor
Tough decision since both are very cool. I'm a big fan of simple designs and I think Neutral cards might perform better in this comp so I'd go with Pearl Seeker.
Lundy
Tirion is super cool, but it misses Taunt. As sad as I am to say this, Broodmother has better flavor though.
Neoguli
Cool card, I like it!
Cheese
Nice idea, but I agree with the others that using a BG card might cost you points. Can't really contribute something about the balance since I don't play BG.
AeroJulwin
I still like it, but I'd cut the part about the enchantments because that makes it unnecessarily complicated. That would make it a Soul of the Murloc on a stick but that's fine for me.
If they need to die, I will gladly forgive those two garbage cards. Pretty disappointing to see a Hunter Legendary with a Deathrattle that doesn't help Deathrattle Hunter to be honest.
So many cool art pieces! Even after I ruled out the ones you guys & gals have already used, I ended up with three ideas:
Lil'idan is a stand alone card as of now, but if Demon Hunter would walk down the road to murglness, a strong build around legendary would definitely help. Mechnapper is my favorite so far, a flavorful tech card that has a few juicy targets like Annoy-o-Tron, Eternium Rover, Mecharoo, Mechanical Whelp, Annoy-o-Module or Spider Bomb. I capped it at 3 because I didn't want it to be able to steal Zilliax. I might want to zoom in on the art a bit more. The Reaper has just great art but has a strange effect for Murlocs. Then again, destroying little beings is what Reapers do.

It's a solid enough idea, but Gentle Megasaur might stop people from giving you 5 stars. Other than that, the card is fine.
Arkasaur
Flavorwise, my favorite so far. The one problem I see is that the card is quite slow. Maybe give it Rush? I wouldn't mind if it transforms any minion, but targeting only Murlocs might yet add to the flavor. Cool idea!
Lundy
I'd very much like to see a mini Tirion with half the stats and Scales of Justice! That said, your current ideas are solid. Broodmother is very flavorful.
AeroJulwin
It's a very creative idea, but I fear it might be too specific to see much success.
Wailor
While Holyfin Crusader is a very cool card, I agree with you that Chumsayer is more fun but also more dangerous. Maybe you could destroy it together with the non-Murloc minions so it triggers only once? ("At the start of your turn, destroy this and all other minions except Murlocs." - clunky, but functional)
Hordaki
Nice card, I like it! Wording looks fine to me.
linkblade91
Solid card, destroying a friendly minion and buffing the rest of them is a proofed working concept in Warlock. So I'd say -1 star for creativity but everything else looks cool. I'd be fine with making it an Epic as well and I think Arkasaur is right about the wording.
Demonxz95
Very flavorful and super creative. Here comes the "but": people might shrink from it because you'd obviously need to do something with it to make it worth running (like giving it Taunt via Sunfury Protector or popping the bubble with Blowgill Sniper or South Coast Chieftain). The ability to do so consistently might hurt your deck too much to be worth it.
I'm really hyped for this expansion and I'm not gonna lie, I'll throw money at them until I get that diamond Benedictus. Pretty sure it will be tied to the 25 legendarys achievement though. Let's hope they'll be worth it!
Remember to force apply the watermark to your token cards if you have any. They don't have a rarity gem, but they do have a watermark (Xyrella's Elekk). Only 1 of the 6 currently submitted cards with a token thought of that and they used an exisiting token from an old set. (You do that by selecting "Custom" in the watermark drop down field [even if you're using the watermark from an existing expansion] and tick the box "Force Apply Emblem").
Cheese: I have to agree with Wailor, Repair Bots might be the card with the coolest flavor so far. Great idea!
Nirast: It's a bit too creative for my taste. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I can't think of a card that uses a choice between two options outside of "Choose One".
Really great ideas overall! So far I have voted seven times 4 stars and one time 5 stars (might have been more without the watermark problem mentioned above) out of 16 cards. Crazy!
No to both of those. You have to think a bit more out of the box. You will find the card by solving that subtraction, but you wouldn't learn how to do that in maths class. The riddle is based on another school subject.

Gotta say I love the art. Super badass card!
I predict a Murloc Druid emerging from this card. You've heard it from me first!

Absolutely no idea.
First line: Wicked Stab (Rank 1) or Wicked Whispers
Second: Potion of Illusion so probably Mage or Rogue. Chill could mean Chillwind Yeti or a Frost spell.
Third: Acornbearer, but that's no longer Standard. Probably a Druid card though.
Fourth: Focused Will
All I can say is that we're probably looking for a spell.
Paladin will love this. I've seen some ideas for Priest as well, but the other classes might struggle to build a deck with this that makes it worth running it without going out of their way too much.
Loving it! It's super versatile and generates a lot of value. Can't wait to play Shadow Priest :)
Hmmm... consistency will be this guys biggest problem, but it sure is a super fun card. Maybe there's a way to abuse this with Celestial Alignment as well.
What a waste of an Epic card slot. I admire the design, but this needs massive support to work out.
I'm rather skeptical as well, but it probably won't be garbage. Sad to see a Legendary Hunter card with a Deathrattle that doesn't work in a traditional Deathrattle Hunter list (since you don't want to trigger the Deathrattle).
