    The cost and stat-line amount to a few things:

    1. The 4/7/7 meme is alive and well.
    2. Equipping Doomhammer on turn 5 costs you two Overload, so you'll only have 4 Mana to spend on turn 6.
    3. At the bare minimum, it's still better than Pit Crocolisk.

    It works for Duels sometimes. If a new set is added but nothing is taken away, they might not go ahead with the kind of reset that nets you a ticket. Or they could be obscure about when exactly it happens: the Duels rating reset was earlier this week, but I don't remember netting a ticket. Will we get the ticket when the expansion launches, or is it never going to happen? It's a crapshoot :/

    Paladin receives some Dude support with Lothraxion the Redeemed and Muster for Battle so I've decided to go down that route.

    I agree with Demon in-that the Lifesteal version has that "well I just won't swing, then" feeling that makes things murky. I also agree that maybe the Charge iteration could be cheaper/smaller to proc it easier; like a 3/3/2? That'll give more leeway to summon SHRs, buff them a bit with...something, and play the weapon itself.

    Just saw your submission; apologies for the late feedback 😕 I like the new card a lot.

    Pretty good card, although I must ask how it would choose what side? Would it just pick a side at random for every card?

    I was thinking it would alternate, left-right-left-right. That would maintain the spirit of trying to keep everything on the "outer edges", checking after each card.

    14,000 people spamming the same crap in the stream, possibly because they're bored lol :/ Trying and failing to catch a code because of course the bots will get them first. All the while the tracks are on a loop; we're not even voting regarding which is "the best".

    ...about what I expected. Another 30-something minutes to go.

    Wow, this is the lowest participation I've ever seen. I guess I'm to blame for proposing this boring theme.

    We could blame something else instead, like the fact that it is Spring Break week. No need to throw you under the bus :P

    It's one of those "your opponent rolls perfectly, you roll for shit" TBs...plus the animations take forever. Fun in theory, bad in practice.

    That's where my head was at but nope, they took them away. Obliterated my decks on their way out, as well, because I guess we lack the technology to downgrade to regular cards when the golden ones are removed. It tells me what was removed, at least, but it won't let me slide the correct versions into the deck without being a hassle.

    I was wondering that, myself. Taking cards away is pretty shitty whether they were intended or not; it's gonna happen, though, for sure, 'cause God forbid we have fun with the shinies.

    @Demon - I like the card, but Climactic Necrotic Explosion tells me they're trying to encourage something other than straight triple-Rune setups. This would butt heads with that direction.

    @Wailor - I think you could trim the Frostwolf Chieftain down to say "Rush. Whenever this would attack, summon a 3/4 Grunt to attack instead." The extra words seem unnecessary - how often will it attack non-enemies? - and that would allow you to fit the text on three lines or put Rush on its own line instead. I like it the most because the card seems neat...although he might not do much for the Warrior's current Standard situation.

    Not gonna lie, I'm really not even sure how to give feedback how unconventional the theme is.

    And that's the beauty of it. I love the chaos you've created here! 

    It was originally called "Anarchy Reigns" when I suggested it sarcastically lel

    It's kinda sad I had to ask sule where the thumb's art came from, because I was worried before publishing that that was not Hearthstone art lol. I barely play Duels, and I don't run the Warrior when I do D: Also failed to notice it in the article itself, but I digress...

    Pretty straight-forward: need those Outcast cards in the leftmost and/or rightmost spot of your hand? This'll do it for you.
