This year especially has taught me that sometimes even the simplest of plans can be waylaid by outside influence, so I'm going for a different kind of resolution this time - in 2021, I'm gonna promise to do things that make me happy.
Now that is a nice sentiment, and a smart idea in general. We do neglect ourselves sometimes. I'll try to do the same, but no promises (to myself) :)
Won't change it because people on this site don't vote for my submissions because i was the one that submitted them anyway, and i made the card for my own enjoyment.
Well, you are going in knowing the card will get disqualified, but it should be about fun first and foremost, so if you like the card, nothing is stopping you from using it, if you can deal with the consequences.
The effect on the hero power is interesting and it could be explored further, just not on the card as it stands for this particular prompt, thats all ;-)
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.
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
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.
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.

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

Happy holidays guys.
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.
The exact tie to a recurring decimal. And from a differently scored votes too, cool! CG guys! :D

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

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
