    Hey Razor, good to see you around! :) I say apply anyway and explain what you just wrote here. I think monthly pieces are also something that we would be open to, so go ahead.

    I mean i agree that it would be a cool feature to have and we are open to almost anything, but to tell you the truth, i dont think this is very realistic. I dont even think that there is information to be gathered out there for each card to do this and even if it were, it would be a monstrous undertaking to put it all together.

    What we might do, and we do do it already (for example this), is to showcase how a specific card or cards came to be. Be it the process of creating the art or devs talking about how they came up with the idea etc.


    You know what? I think this would actually be a really good area of "expertise" for someone to tackle with weekly articles, where they could always showcase a specific card(s). There would be (arguably) enough time for research between articles, if it were a weekly thing, and there could be a lot of content to go through overall, so it would have potential to last for a long time.

    We are currently looking for ppl who would like to contribute with creating content for the site and this looks like something that, if we found a dedicated person for it, would be a really great addition. So if you, or anyone else, is interested in taking on this responsibility, feel free to apply here.

    - NEW CARDS -

    1=Excellent, 2=Good, 3=Average, 4=Poor, 5=Terrible


    Dark Pharaoh Tekahn (4): First of all, you have to get Lackeys to get any value from the battlecry, so solely draft dependant. Then you have to play this before lackeys. Quite unrealistic that you would be able to do all that in an average deck. But it can happen.

    Desert Spear (3): It is not the worst weapon ever, but kinda awkward. You can distribute the damage, that is nice, but still. Im not sure how i feel about it.

    Vilefiend (3): Ok 2-drop. Less stats, some healing, could be worse. Warlock might like it for the demon tag.

    I saw some Menagerie deck around here recently, maybe you could try some variant of that :)

    Well, they already said there will be only one new Lackey in SoU, so your assumption is correct :) And giving minion Reborn does sound like something that could happen. The ability itself is certainly strong enough to be on par with the rest.

    Fixed the title for you, users cant edit that just yet :)

    But yeah, that is actually a cute combo and should work.

    Sounds like an interesting idea, but problem is, it would serve only for PC users. Mobile already has some info cut out, cause you simply dont want to clutter the interface too much, so i dont know if this will become a reality. I mean ideally, the deck name and the archetype should tell you what kind of deck it is.

    I guess we could display the archetype on mobile possibly, that could help there.

    Livewire Lance (1): Stats on the weapon arent isnt very impressive, but it can generate pretty great value through the Lackeys.

    There will be a button eventually, yes. So far you can use the workaround Kovachut presented, even tho personally it kinda annoys me that the header is still there and it says "Quote From No Author Specified", but that is the best you can do right now.


    Im not sure why do you want to use quote in this way, but id assume to highlight a certain part of your post? Maybe a better idea is to use horizontal lines to divide post into several sections (like i did just now)

    Well, for example if I want to respond to more than one quote from different users, or if I want to break up a long post by someone else so I can respond point-by-point.

     

    BTW, is the BB-code for quotes a new addition? I could have sworn I tried that a few weeks ago and it didn't work for me then.

     

    Quote From No Author Specified
    testing 1 2

     

    No, the function was always there i believe.

    But yes, i completely understand what you mean. Multi-quote should be a thing one day, that is a very helpful feature.

    Also dividing one quote into several sections to respond to each individually is something i used myself in the past quite frequently, so i hope that will be a thing as well. You can do it now by using the bbcode, but like i said before, the header annoys the hell out of me, so hopefully we will be able to do it better in the future.

    There is a button "Card" in the text editor that will make bbcode around highlighted text (ie card name). The highlighted text has to be without formatting tho (no bold, italic etc), so be careful about that. Or you can just write [card][/card] yourself, if it is easier for you (generally is for ppl with English keyboard due to the brackets being easily accessible).

    Micro Mummy (2): Master Swordsmith is always annoying when opponent plays it, even if it has crappy stats. This has the same ability with more stats split among two bodies, making it that much stickier. I can see this card being very annoying to get rid of. Not hard to get rid of, but annoying, cause you will have to spend two attacks killing it.

    Sure, depending on a deck ur playing, it can be very easy to flood the board, but you cant compare Twisting Nether and this and say they are the same. You do have to set up your board and spend more resources (minions) to kill the enemy side, you cannot play it like Twisting Nether. I get where are you coming from, but there are big differences.

    i realy like it but it will let your hand explode 😺. And its a 7 without board presence or  removal. Sprint without prep is also not very competative. But i will try a deck with this for shure.

    It will ress all those slumbering Lucentbarks tho :)

    Plague of Flames (3): I honestly dont know what to think about this card. Obviously it is super cheap, so that gives it a lot of versatility. You dont need to hold it for a full board wipe, trading up for just one or two big(ger) minions can very well be enough tempo to push forward. But it could also be very awkward to get into a situation, where you want to use it. I guess time will tell.
