Ever felt dirty playing that T0 net deck or getting away with some insane RNG win that was totally undeserved? Here's the place to ease your mind! We'll listen, we'll understand and most importantly: we won't judge.

I'll start with a confession of BM. I was playing Disco Lock and queued into a golden Odd Warrior. My first mistake was not to concede after Baku's animation, I knew I'd have to draw like a God to win that matchup. Of course RNGesus was busy elsewhere and I not only drew really really bad, but also suffered from abysmally bad discard outcomes. The straw that broke the camel's back was my opponent roping almost every turn until the mid game when it was crystal clear I had already lost the game. I don't think they did it on purpose, it felt more like they were doing something else and not really paying attention. Even late in the game their turns took far longer than necessary and that's something that really gets to me from time to time. So yeah, the last three turns I roped them without any cards left to play just to give something back. I usually never do that since I'm despicing this behavior with all my heart but today I couldn't help myself. Dear Odd Warrior player, if you should happen to read this: I'm sorry. Please do your fellow players a favor and concentrate on whatever your doing and don't multitask Hearthstone. 

Wow, that's an incredibly strong field of finalists this week and I'm proud to be part of it. I have a feeling the results will be very close, the overall level is just so high!

The one thing, the only thing that prevented me from being interested in the PlayStation 3 and onward that Sony has yet to catch on to? One of the things that made the PlayStation 2 what it was and such a roaring success?

Backwards compatibility.

Seriously, it isn't hard to just program stable emulators onto new hardware that can interact with physical discs :\

Well, that will be possible this time, at least partially. 

Quote From Dermostatic

Is it... Netherwalker?

That's correct! Well done, you're next. 

Looks like Amazon France has leaked the price and the release date. 499€, starting November 20th. Sounds like a good deal to me!

Not that either. Another hint: the first line is about the card's name. 

I'd say the submission phase ends in 175 minutes from sinti's post. 

Taunt would be a good idea imo. And please explain the lore behind the character if there is one. 

Nope, it's not a neutral card. Think more along the line of DeytroyerR's guesses. 

The design is cool but I don't really see what makes it better than the last generation in that mind-blowing way they're promoting it. Of the games I liked Project Athia the most. I'm curious about the price and if there will be a VR set right from the start...

Still negative. You almost have it. It's not a Warlock card though.

That's closer but not yet correct. 

Nope.

Quote From Hordaki

Haven't had the best luck with my cards in the past few contests, hoping to turn it around soon. This week is definitely the most unique idea we've had yet, so it took me a while to find an idea I liked.

Xavius, Nightmare Lord is the Prime legendary that DH never got, and is meant to be a key piece in Demon decks for board clears since it can preserve your board if you build it right.

Cg8889: You might have to shuffle an extra copy into your deck instead to avoid the infinite Mechwarper combos.

bigcums: Light Infusion could be worded better (maybe limit it to minions and "gain +1/+1 for each excess health". Light Burst should be higher since targeting a minion with full health is basically a double Flamestrike.

anchorm4n: I like the Protector, and I don't think putting it in Witchwood is much of a problem since Year of the Raven was when Treat support became a thing. But 5 Mana would definitely be more balanced.

KANSAS: I think the six Coins is pretty forced, I don't know if this idea will work for the competition.

CursedParrot: I think the Violet Spellshielder would be more readable if it used Overkill in some way. Maybe "If you Overkill a minion with a spell, gain Armor equal to the excess damage."

MenacingBagel: I think that works, just make sure to include a token of the Improvised Explosives when you submit.

BloodMefist: I'd go with the Corpse Explosion out of the three.

meisterz39: I like it, not much else to say about it.

MrRhapsody: I'd go with the family-friendly one since that's the direction Hearthstone is going in.

TheHoax91: Aldor Artificer is too simple, but I also think Felo'melorn might be too complicated.

Valor1204: Maybe it would read better if it only shifted once?

DestroyerR: Too much of a meme to be pulled off well.

Pokeniner: Is the damage randomly split? Because otherwise this should be at least 4 Mana.

grumpymonk: Bestow Faith works, but Keeper Remulos would break the entire game.

Demonxz95: I'd go with Soul Enchantress out of the two.

linkblade91: I like Plague Doctor the best of the two, I'm surprised they didn't bring back the Toxins before this.

 

 

Thanks for the feedback! I'm a bit torn about the cost, Linkblade thought it might be too weak at 5...

I like your take on Xavius a lot. If anything, maybe make the first card a 3/4/3, it looks odd not having an aggressive stat line. If you're worried about that being too much, I could imagine 3/4/2 being cool as well (like my Terrestian Illhoof two weeks ago).

I walk where no one else goes

I seek everybody's foes

True, I may be lacking some substance

But then, my danger can't be seen at first glance

Stablemaster? 

New idea. I noticed that most of the tribes got a board clear tailored to them (Demonwrath, Corrupted Seer, Dragonfire Potion, Dyn-o-matic). Treants are missing one of those, so I fixed that. What do you think? I put it in Witchwood because of the art even if it isn't the most Treant - centered expansion. I guess it's too strong at 4 mana... Would 5 be okay? 

Thanks for the pointer KANSAS, I honestly had forgotten about Conduit's card for competition 1.04. In fact, I created my card with my girlfriend who has no idea about hearthstone, let alone OOC. I'm sorry nevertheless. Back to the drawing board!

Feedback!

Here's my idea for this week. It's meant to be played together with buff cards like Flametongue Totem or Fungalmancer. What do you think?

I'll add feedback in a few hours (already spotted my favorite!)
