Here's to hoping Spell Shaman becomes a real thing.

Also, could you post the token in the OP so that we don't have to go to the card page and then hover over the "related cards" to see the prime version?

Quote From RavenSunHS

Didn't they say card draw was just an occasional trait in Hunter?

Yes. That is why there is this one single card that only draws you one single card. What is the problem here?

About the actual card, it seems pretty strong. You can use this simply as a way to cycle through your deck, it doesn't really give you any card advantage because you still have the same number of cards in your hand, but it does give you virtual card advantage by making sure you have just the right cards in your hand. I like how this card can tutor beasts like Master's Call, but doesn't make it so that you can play only beasts in your deck.

I am not too sure you would want to play this. I am not saying the imprisoned minions are bad by nature, but this specific one doesn't seem very good. A board clear effect isn't really something you want to delay two turns, and it will also be very hard to know ahead of time exactly when you will need to play this so that it will trigger on the turn you need it to. I am not saying slow cards are bad and so imprisoned guys are bad, but a board clear isn't exactly something you want to have to hold off for that long.

Alright, I brewed up a new card, I am not 100% sure on the name or powerlevel of the card. But I saw the art and thought this might be funny.

I was looking for some good art and saw this murloc shouting and waving his sword at the butterfly and had the idea for this card. What do you think?

Demon Hunter could easily be the weakest class in wild due to them not having any cards from any wild sets.

KANSAS - I believe someone created a Murlocs -> Pirates idea already among the submissions. Beyond that, I just don't find the effect that interesting.

Quote From Dermostatic

@KANSAS: This effect might as well be a meme considering how many people have mentioned/tried it over the years in custom card design. Someone has already designed a similar one for this comp (theirs buffs as well, but I think it's too wordy). I think you'd be better off trying something more original.

Quote From LarryMoments

KANSAS: Again, I like it, but effect's been overdone too unfortunately.

Quote From anchorm4n

KANSAS: Nice flavor, but as suspected, there's already another submission with a very similar effect. I like yours better, if that helps. Maybe you can change the effect and keep the rest of it?

Thanks for the feedback

I didn't really feel too strong about the card, I agree that this kind of card has been a bit overdone and isn't too original. Do you think I should make another Cookie card but with a different effect? Or would I be better off coming up with something else altogether?

Wait, if you buff Lord Jaraxxus while he is in your hand, will you get a 5/8 weapon and 17 life?

Nice. I am a big fan of any form of shaman removal.

Wow, this card is crazy. Sap is already a good card, this is exactly the same except better in every conceivable way.

I mean, I sure hope the Demon Hunter has a classic set.

The thing is, you don't spend 3,000 gold on Battlegrounds benefits, you spend them on 150 cards with the battlegrounds benefits as an added bonus. With this, you are spending 500 less gold, yes, but you also get 30 less packs. You do get the 4 arena tickets, which is worth 600 gold, but that doesn't compensate for the amount of packs you could have bought with that 2500 gold.

All in all, you are spending 1900 gold on battlegrounds benefits alone. I am not sure why they added the arena tickets in the first place, maybe to encourage more people to play the format? Maybe to mask the price of the product? But it would have been better if they had just reduced the cost of the Battlegrounds benefits and not have added irrelevant stuff to the bundle.

Quote From anchorm4n

Well, he didn't exaggerate after all. This stream really blew my mind.

 

All in all, I can't find words for how deeply impressed I am. These are huge improvements and I will gladly keep throwing my money at Blizzard for quite some time. 

What do you guys think about the news?

Took the words right out of my mouth (except for the throwing money at blizzard part). I am just flabbergasted at all of this new stuff, and I am SUPER excited that the new class and expansion will all be playable within the next 3 weeks!!! 

So, can we still get the emotes, stats, and 3 heroes if we don't get the pass? Or does the pass come with extra emotes and extra stats and heroes? Cause I don't want them to start monetizing something that was already free to begin with.

Here is the first thing that I thought of

I wouldn't be surprised if someone else had the same idea as me. I will check in the submissions later to see if I need to change my card.

Great changes all around. I like all of the changes they made to the minions, especially the dragon buff guy. At tier 5, it is a little bit too late to just get a nice battlecry. Being a smaller minion at Tier 3 makes a lot more sense.

I also like having a murloc themed hero, it kinda feels right now like there really isn't anything for murlocs right now. Not as many special battlegrounds exclusive minions, or heroes to synergize with them.

I also like the pyramid buff, buffs are always nice.

I like the new sir finley, you basically get to reroll your starting heroes. Plus, you could end up with the same hero power as someone else, which makes things a bit more interesting.

I agree with, and welcome all of these changes.

This guy is going to be SUPER powerful. You can trigger your deathrattles or sweepers right off the bat every game! It makes it a lot easier to execute your strategy the way you want to every game. Plus, unlike some heroes, he isn't limited to a specific tribe which makes him way more flexible.

I was pretty surprised to hear about Acolyte of Pain and Spellbreaker, but I completely understand. Novice Engineer, Loot Hoarder, and Acolyte of Pain are all evergreen, common or basic, and neutral. This makes it pretty hard to have other good neutral draw options in the future. 

And I understand about Spellbreaker completely overshadowing Ironbeak Owl, and how having such an efficient silence tool in the classic set also makes it hard to make good silencers in the future.

It isn't that I don't agree with you, but it sounds like they were working on all of this stuff for a long time before LoR came out. I wouldn't be surprised if all of this stuff would have happened anyway even if LoR never existed.

This is huge! The game could really use some economy updates. They could have done gold quantity, dust quantity, pack quantity, but I think pack quality is probably the best approach.
