Question to the mods: how difficult would it be to implement a system similar to Trump's? (different rankings for design and balance) Then the final score an either be the average or the sum of the two.
Ok, so my last card proved quite... divisive, so I'm putting it on the back burner and replacing it with an idea I've had since RoS launched:
...
You don't get anything for the Colosal Lackey and Dragon Lackey, since that would be too convoluted.
I think the idea is neat overall, but would argue that separating the Lackeys is what makes this convoluted. I don't like dividing an already-small set (Lackeys) into two smaller subsets (the "originals" vs the new ones). You have to spell out that only the Rise of Shadows Lackeys count, which tells me that the card is trying too hard to be functional.
Ok, but then who would be the bosses for the other two Lackeys? Colossus of the Moon and Dragonqueen Alextraza? That would pretty much make it busted.

I'm not sure about the name and stats.
This is very expensive, even for its effect (literally 7 mana 2/4 do nothing). Also, random bosses are not that great (especially Blastmaster Boom or Rafaam) plus if you end up with multiple dragon/colosal lackeys this card becomes useless.
You don't get anything for the [Hearthstone Card (Colosal Lackey) Not Found] and [Hearthstone Card (Dragon Lackey) Not Found], since that would be too convoluted.
I don't like it, it will clutter your collection, also 1000 times is a lot of times..
Would rather have achievements with real rewards, have no interest in full arts, specially since you can view them online.
You still get 100 gold for completing the classic set lol.
The collection manager currently needs some kind of overhaul IMO. Like I shouldn't be seeing a regular and golden copy of a card, it'd be nice if they were on the same screen when you clicked the card. Also if you wanted, you could disenchant the "Vanilla" version of the cards once you've earned the full art versions.
The numbers can be played with, I just threw those out there as an example. But I do feel that these should not be easy to obtain, these are free after all.
We need achievements, period. Viewing full art in card form has its' appeal to certain people, if you don't find it interesting that's fine.
It's be nice to earn some sort of reward if you completed card sets as well.
Sorry if I'm a jerk for bringing this up, but, uhm... Mythgard does this. Regular and Prestige cards (which are full art like you described, btw) can be fused together while in the collection and deck builder, and if you double click/tap on it, there's an option to toggle between them (for crafting). The game also adds the prestige version of the card automatically of you have it (sadly, it doesn't replace it with a regular copy if you decide to dust it).
2. That's not exactly the same. If bounce back and replay or resurrect the copy from hand, it'd have the text.
Minions can't remain silenced while in hand. If you use Spellbreaker on a Bone Drake and Sap it, the card will still have the deathrattle. Under the current mechanics of the game, your card wouldn't work the way you intend it to.
We also didn't use to have minions with buff in the hand, yet here we are
Been wanting some anti-Lackey tech since Zetalot mentioned them as a reason for his departure, and I agreed with it as a problem in the current meta (rogues and wild shaman). Let me know what you think.
FYI -- Lackeys still provide a dragon/spell/whatever, the players just can't choose anymore because of the loss of Discover if that is chosen. Art chosen was "rat dragon" -- I originally thought Dirty Rat clone, but that would be more ideal to get rid of Lackey generators than Lackeys, and not all Lackey generators are minions. The only ways I could think to hurt Lackeys fairly would be to silence them in hand, force them out (both of which wouldn't be effective as they're not commonly held long, if at all), remove Discover or increase the mana cost. Went with the latter two.
The only bit I was conflicted on was poisonous; I added as a "after year of the dragon/against non-lackey decks/late game" option, but I figure it counters stuff like Inner Fire priest well early too. Also gives it a slight upside/downside if you get this as your random dragon reward from Descent's Ysera or Alex.
PS -- My other idea was a 3-mana battlecry legendary, Lackey Union Leader, that gradually increases the mana cost of Lackey +1 after the legendary is played.
This a better Pit Snake without the Lackey stuff. I'd make it cost 2.
Choose One is exclusive to Druids, so you can't use it on a neutral card. I'd just give it a Battlecry: All Lackeys cost (1) more.
Honestly, I think the Immortal Bone Drake is super awesome as it is right now. Great flavour and really neat ability. I am not sure about everyone else but I would give this card 5 stars.
Thanks for the kind words. I'll change the art tomorrow to the new one (I feel it fits Hearthstone's aesthetic better) and upload it.
Hi, we are glad that you are excited! :) We dont have an exact eta just yet, still working on the proper tools for it. We want to have a dedicated system for it to make things more fair than before and just the whole experience to feel even better, so hang on for a little while longer ;-)
Can the people who pre-ordered the mage packs request a refund? I would imagine so, since they bought a different product from what was advertised.
Oh but it does guarantee a legendary... If you buy TWO bundles. (assuming a different pity timer)
Do they have to be 6 continuous hours or can I watch 2 today, 3 tomorrow and the last 1 yesterday?
I've been using Google Photos. The Albums allow me to better organise the images. I've put them on Imgur, they should work now.
This subforum is a little empty. Let's fix that, shall we?
I'll go first:
I tried to to capture as much of the big guy's character as possible:
- He's massive, the biggest champion in the game by far.
- The fact that he isn't affected by any spells (this include both AoEs and revive effects) represent his immunity to magic.
- Both his Level Up and the additional effect he gets when leveled up represent his empowerment from magic.
- His spell represents the fact that his mere presence nullifies magic (at least in combat).
- The Challanger represents his eagerness to fight.

"Looking for something fun to play this weekend?"
Me: *Looks at clock, as it's past 10 PM on a Sunday* What weekend?
Ok, but then who would be the bosses for the other two Lackeys? Colossus of the Moon and Dragonqueen Alextraza? That would pretty much make it busted.
It replaces the Lackeys on board, not in hand
Ok, so my last card proved quite... divisive, so I'm putting it on the back burner and replacing it with an idea I've had since RoS launched:
The transformations go liike this:
Ethereal Lackey - Arch-Villain Rafaam
Witchy Lackey - Swampqueen Hagatha
Goblin Lackey - Blastmaster Boom
Faceless Lackey - Madame Lazul
Kobold Lackey - Heistbaron Togwaggle

Updated the card based on some feedback. The first time you play this, it costs 7, and the copies it gives you are 5 mana 4/7s.

How about this:

In life, he was raised by Crystalsmith Kangor, who taught him the concepts of infinity and endlessness.
First idea, what do you think? If anyone is still in need of assistance, let me know.
For crying out loud, this was PERFECT for that!
