First of all this is my first time posting on the forums, now with that out of the way lets get started.
Remember when shadows did a priest coreset redesign well, I tried to do the same with neutral basic and classic, completely forgot about it for months then last night finished it decided to quickly do it for each of the classes and I am now done.
I chose not to bring in any cards from later expansions, but I did end up redesign a card or 2 but nothing to significant.
Also I don’t plan to add demon hunter to this right now, maybe later
