    An idea i had. I always like the idea of paladins conscripting people that wouldn't normally be in their army, like ogres or giants, trolls, or beasts.

    This card turns off its own effect, since it is itself a minion in your deck.

    No other minions

    Changing the text to "no other minions" would fix the card mechanically, but would then not follow the prompt.

    Sorry? Got the idea from the other person that said it was okay. Maybe if everyone dogpiled them before i posted like what's happening to me i would have known

    The prompt: You must create a card which has an effect when your deck has no minions.

    Your card literally wants to bypass having a minion in the deck. Im not sure where is the confusion about that. You havent submitted, so you still have time to adjust the card or come up with something else ;-)

    /edit: ah, didnt see Link's card, in that case im of the opinion that his breaks the rules as well

    Yup, tho if you look right after your throwing spree, you might not see anything else, if you throw a lot :D So you would have to chill out for a second :)

    Check your account manager > avatar borders, maybe you got them. There was a display issue, even if you opened the gifts, they were still showing countdowns as if you didnt. But if you clicked on em, you should have gotten the contents.

    First thing that pops up when i write "ice" in. Maybe you had additional filters on? For example, if you select a class, you can no longer de-select it, you can change it, but you can no longer remove the class filter, you have to reload the card search from scratch. That will be fixed sometimes in the future. Maybe that was the case and you didnt notice.

    There appears to be an issue with equipping Pins via account manager. It will be fixed soonTM.

    You can equip one like how you would any other cosmetic, I'm not sure where they get displayed though.

    Yup, they are an additional layer of cosmetics, its a first pass at them, so feel free to report any issues.

    They appear near your avatar border and in various places on the site where your name+avatar is displayed.

    /edit: it seems that equipping Pins in Account Manager is not working correctly right now tho, gotta wait a bit before its fixed :(

    A lot has happened in our Fan Creation corner in the past year. Nice to see it all written down. Cant wait for next year! :)

    We should do a "New Year's Resolution" mini-comp for the start of the 2021 :D Everyone could make a HS card that would depict their real life resolution. That should be interesting :D

    If you really think about it Corpsetaker was kinda a prequel to Zilliax, no wonder it did so well 🤔

    I really loved a lot of cards in RR and the setting, but i will say it got kinda shrug off hard in HS history, when you look back.

    This is weird, you can get awarded a 1st place in a three-way, if the 3rd person dies to KT while ur fighting, but getting 2nd? That is weird. Havent had that happen to me tho.

    What is the 20 cost snowball? Profile circle?

    Not a profile frame, but you will have to wait a bit longer for more info :)

    How did everyone like this weeks prompt? Do you like flavor-focused themes? Was this one in particular difficult to design for, maybe because it was harder to determine, whether the character was HS original or not? Or did you actually feel like it was too narrow, since you had to use a HS original character? Just some feedback for us, thanks :)

    First off, let me just say good job one more time, great expansion overall! :)

    Now to the interview, I kinda overlooked this before when i first saw the set, but how exactly does Resonance work? It says replace, does it mean it removes the top card of your deck an puts a copy of a card you just draw there instead? Because if it was just adding the copy, i would assume the wording would be something along the lines of "Draw a card. Add a copy of it at the top of your deck." If it indeed removes the top card of your deck, doesnt that kinda make the card on itself almost unplayable in most deck? Except for aggro decks who dont care if you "discard" an important combo piece. Not to mention you dont actually know which card you removed, unless the history tab would tell you, which could be another problem.

    I find it interesting how few ppl compare Observe to Discover, similar to Rush vs Charge, even going as far as saying it could be a replacement. I can understand where they r coming from, but the only similarity is you look at 3 cards, that is literally it. Those mechanics are diametrically different in what they provide, unless you use Discover in a way to search your deck, in that case they are a lot similar, yes. But i would say that they are not even remotely close in what they actually provide, they do different things, Discover generates extra resources in most cases while Observe lets you search your deck for specific cards you put in there. Huge difference imho.

    If i were to pick one card mentioned here, it would have to be King Grond. It makes a really clever use of an underutilized mechanic and im very surprised we havent seen more effects like these in HS custom card community, or maybe I havent.

    Anyway, looking forward to your next set :)

    Classic, rare cards played in between minions: Ancient Mage, Defender of Argus, if any of these is it, i fail to see what the hints were all about :D

    Y Shaarj is a mistake. Even at 0 Mana it's debatable because of space.

     

    Y'Shaarj is a monster, man, you got to try it, OP as hell, first game with him, win with a pirate/elemental build, got a golden Boat, and buffed it to something like 30/15 or around that, golden Eliza, I mean, at tier 6 it's absurd power level to get a guaranteed tier 6, because you get goldens and buffs everywhere, all thanks to Amalgadon being the only Battlecry tier 6.

    And thanks to needing space, you just end up buying buffs and buffs, then selling and pushing the button.

    Maybe you got lucky, but starting the fight with 6 minions is just putting yourself in severe disadvantage. Denying yourself any chance at going 1st literally decides if you win or lose matches, especially later on and if you have stuff like Cyclones, Zappys, Parrots and stuff.

    Also a random 6-tier minions is still random, what are the chances it fits in your comp? Pretty slim. No way this is worth it. Not saying you cant pull it off, but i cant see this being consistent. Not to mention you actually have to get to tier 6, which on itself can kill you, if you "waste" a turn to get there too early. Many compositions dont even need to get there and are better off rolling on 5 to advance their goal.
