(card that has been submitted by another user)

Well now this is quite unfortunate....

Yeah, I've seen it 🥲 I guess I'll go with one card from my Boomsday miniset, but it's kinda annoying.

EDIT: I ended going with Learning Machine.

Yeah, this is being a very slow week. I haven't had as much time as usual, but I managed to finally write some feedback:

[spoiler text="Demonxz95"]I think I prefer Shadowball, but it's only by a small margin. I really like how Echo and Overkill interact and I don't mind the powercreep too much, especially since this mini set …

Here's my first idea.

The Cambrian is a geological period when biodiversity really exploded and complex organisms started to thrive. I figured out a mini-set based on other extinct animals would make sense. The reward is based on the dunkleosteus, a huge predator fish (which lived in a posterior period, but whatever).

In terms of mechanics, it …

Congrats!

(I finally understood Nutty Buddy was a triple pun lol)

This competition can be a bit of a strange, but I think there are several ways to make an interesting card:

  • Combine expansion-exclusive mechanics and themes with classes and evergreen keywords that didn't exist back then. How would a Portal spell from ONiK look in Death Knight? Is there an interesting idea that combines Rush and Spare Parts?

I'll finally go with Living Typhoon, as people seemed to prefer it over Calia unanimously.

I'm still not sure about balance, though. It seems very weak right now, but giving it stat points seems too much. Maybe a 4/4 statline is okay? It would help to trigger Overkill and I don't want to go for Honorable Kill because …

I didn't expect to win. Thanks!

And congrats to Nobudy! Very cool card!

Are numbers allowed? For instance, for keywords like Overload or Manathirst.

Unrelated to this question, here's my card:

Calia Menethil is Arthas' young sister and a particular type of Undead: instead of being resurrected with dark magic, she did it using her faith in the Light. I don't remember much else about her, but I'll make sure …

I've submitted considering all feedback you guys gave. That said, some feedback of my own:

[spoiler text="Me0203"]As many people have pointed out, your cards don't qualify. However, I think you could combine both ideas in a Amalgam Legendary with the following text:

Battlecry: If your deck contains exactly two minion types, give both types to all minions in …

New idea. Still not 100% sold on it, but I think it's better than my previous ones.


Feedback:

[spoiler text="linkblade91"]I think the effect is the most interesting and "neat" so far; and the flavor works is on point for the tribes involved.

Regarding balance, my initial feeling is that it's too cheap, but you need …

@linkblade91 I totally get that and, yeah, it might be a good thing. Sorry if I was too negative. It's awesome you're trying new things.

About Deadmoon Raider, I wanted it to be a discount [card]Restless Mummy[/card] if you had the two tribes, but I didn't realize you could go infinite. I guess I'm a bit rusty, since it's …

I'm gonna say I don't particularly like the idea of giving a prize, physical or otherwise. I think it makes the whole thing more competitive and the best thing of this comps is how casual they feel, despite the excellent general quality of the cards.

Anyways, here's my first ideas for this comp:

Don't know if Amethos

Glad to see this return, although I almost missed it!

I don't think I'll have time to give or receive feedback, so I've already submitted a card I made a little while ago.

Good luck, everyone!

Happy new year, everyone!

I'd love to have a new comp season, but of course the personal life of the organizers comes first.

Regarding the changes to the voting system, I think I'd prefer to wait only if the halt for this reason isn't too long. I'd also like to join Aero in their question about doing a …

Cool. We had an interaction a couple weeks ago about your space themed set :)

Hey! You're u/CivilerKobold on Reddit, right?

I haven't read the full article, but I really hope they bring back the old Death Knight card border. The current one is just a recolor of the Warrior one, which is not great for colorblind people.

(Also, the previous one was very cool)

Very cool mini-set!

I like how experimental some of the cards are, especially Mirage Magician and Gaze of the Shadows and Hand of Defiance.

There are some minor spelling mistakes and a card that doesn't feel like it belongs to its class (Living Pyramid; maybe if it had Reborn instead of Divine Shield it would …

My Cryptographer has the same effect and wording as the new [card]Tight-Lipped Witness[/card]. I just missed the stat distribution a little bit.

This kind of things always make one feel validated as a designer :)

(Also, I'm an IT guy and my girlfriend is a lawyer, so this situation is kinda funny considering the theme of both Mini …
