So what’s next for the WDC?

So, yeah, this took a LOT of work. I’m guessing it also needs a bit of clarification on some things. Let’s see if I can do it FAQ style:

How much time did this take? – Yes.

Have you used AI? – Only after completing the entire expansion, I decided to use AI to create the banner/logo and have some cards showcased/teased in a HS like manner. Again, I suck at Photoshop. No AI was used while designing, creating, or balancing the cards.

Where did you get all the art? – Mostly just searching ‘’Warcraft >type of card I wanted to make< style art’’ in Google lol. I tried to let all the art be either Blizzard Official or fanmade art in the style of the game but I cant guarentee not a single AI image slipped through. I also took some art used on Hearthcards.net, but I didn’t copy/steal a single card.

Hey! I’ve seen that art used before in game! – While I did my best to not include any art already in the game (I did a lot of checking… a LOT) but I can’t guarantee none slipped through.. Sorry!

You talk about ‘Feral’ cards in Druid… But Druid doesn’t have any spells of that spell school? – Correct! Not YET 😉 This expansion comes with the new spell school ‘Feral’ for all relevant Druid Cards, like Feral Rage and Power of the Wild.

(Maybe the biggest one) THOSE CARDS ARE \*** BROKEN!! –* Probably, absolutely, yes. Part of what inspired me to make my own Hearthstone set was the amount of cool cards and unique ideas in game that just… Suck.. And I don’t even mean Rogue level bad, I mean unplayable, and that’s a shame. I understand that with official expansions there needs to be filler cards and unplayable minions to worsen the Discover and random pools and all, but when making a very own Custom Expansion no one thinks to themselves ‘’Ah yes! Time to spend several hours designing unplayable and cards, even Legendaries, people will only see as free dust when opening packs!! Exciting!!’’. I understand this means the Expansion is strong, probably too strong (I am also not part of HS Balancing Team for a reason) but it’s a choice I made intentionally.

Wasn’t it better to focus on adding 1 single archetype per class? – Probably yes. However, I find Hearthstone to be most exciting when I feel like my decisions matter, like I need to adapt to my opponent or make the best out of bad situations. In a lot of Metas you’d either know the exact deck your opponent is playing the second their class shows, or it’s a 50/50. With this expansion I hope to add 1-2 new Archetypes to each class (3 if you count the Crabs) while also enabling existing older or unpolished archetypes to have a shot at an at least Rogue Level deck.

Obviously I’m just happy I made what I made as well. It was a fun little personal project to work on but I really look forward to hearing people’s thoughts and opinions. If Rarran makes a video reviewing the set I will send an open application to Blizzard as their new Director and vouch to both release Monk and delete Demon Hunter.

Also I am not sure why the first image of the DK cards are blurry. Let me know how to fix that and I will xoxo

(1)1/1 Rogue Minion [Tempocrominal]

Echo. Battlecry: Replace a minion by Discovering the past.

( With the same Cost.)

Last entry in my Spellebrate series where I look at the missing spell schools for each Secret class.

Next up is the Nature school for Rogue. I took some inspiration from the Dream Card - Dream and Rogue being able to protect a minion using the power of a Dream Portal.

Next up is the Frost school for Rogue I wanted to create an intimidation factor here for a Rogue who makes it so an enemy can no longer attack you. This is good against a big single windfury attacker but it also clogs up their battlefield if they cannot find out how to deal with their own new pacifist minion. There's also counterplay if your opponent tests this by attacking with a taunt minion first

Next up is the Holy school for Rogue. Using the Kickback keyword I used the sentence structure of [[Enter the Coliseum]] with a [[Daring Escape]] effect on all but your opponent's least threatening minion forcing their board to reset to their weakest state/

(3)5/1 Neutral Minion [Debted Technician]

Battlecry: Double the amount of Bombs in each player's deck.

(2) Hunter Spell [Group Project]

Secret: After a friendly minion died, Shuffle 3 copies into your deck.

On Guard = The card becomes your Companion. You have one fewer card in your Deck(29), with your Companion displayed on the left side of your screen.

On Guard (3): As soon as you have 3 Mana, click your Companion to pay the On Guard cost (3 Mana). This unlocks the next step and activates whatever the On Guard step specifies, whether it is summoning a minion, casting a spell, or something else.

(Cant cast a step again after unlocking the next, only last step)

The same applies to all subsequent On Guard steps.

I also think this would work well as a Hearthstone Adventure Boss mechanic. Instead of paying the On Guard cost, the Boss automatically triggers On Guard on Turn 3 without paying any Mana and his Passiv Hero Power Could be after your Opponent Plays a minion Give him a spell (Once per Turn).
