Custom Year; Year of Peacock, 1st Exp; Harmony of the Spheres

Submitted 4 years, 3 months ago by

Hello Guys; Welcome to my year long story;

I present you Year of the Peacock ! Yes; a Peacock ! Which represents the great Festival year of Warcraft Universe !


Our beloved Peacock which gives the name to year is this handsome Sholazar Peacock !

These festivals are completely custom. It doesn't contain the existing festivals like Fire Festival, Lunar Festival, etc. and each expansion of the year is a Festival.

I am not good with photoshop programs or sth. like that so I couldn't create custom images for my year icon or images about year but If anyone can help I won't refuse. :)

So; Here is the 1st expansion of the Year; Harmony of the Spheres !



Everything starts with a great concert of Elite Tauren Chieftain (ETC) in Early April which you will see all of the members of this great band !



 At first concert of them there will be "The Prince"; so players who joins a concert in first 30 days of the expansion by Log-in game will get the awesome E.T.C. The Prince legendary card for free !


E.T.C. The Prince works like Kazakus;

When you play it There will be 3 options such as;

And then these options for their representative mana costs There are more than 3 and you can choose from 3, so they will appear randomly, I thought that can balance the card;

You will choose thrice like Kazakus; Firstly the mana cost, secondly 1 effect and then another effect for each representetive mana costs. 

0-mana

4-mana

8-mana


With one of the Class Legendary Card that is a source of inspiration! which I will explain more in this post.

As you can see here; We have a brand new keyword, Rhythm;


You already saw some synergetic cards so I will show some real examples here;


(Deathrattle rhythms can only trigger after the deathrattle triggers, If Deathrattle minions are silenced, Rhythms can't trigger because there will be no effect to trigger.)

And there is more with Rhythm cards; There will be some Melody Cards that will be upgraded when a rhythm triggers for every class;


and There is also more ! There will be 6 Neutral Melodies in the set ! All are collectibles and not tokens so you can put them in the deck of whichever class you want !


All of the classes have their own theme with one of their Source of Inspiration Legendaries. There will be also one performer for each class.Themes are all about entertaining; While Hunters are Journeyer Bards and Circus Masters, Warriors have badass Metal Bands and Warlocks even rule Brothels !!!

Here is some examples of Source of Inspiration;

All of them are similar to Quest cards but there is no-more dead first turns ! You will play your cards and they will be available when you complete the restrictions.

ETC had been in need of sponsorship for their concerts and asked Baine Bloodhoof for it. He kindly accepted the sponsorhip of the Festivals and will join you after you opened your 30th HofS pack ! (Hoofs would be funnier tho so you may call it as Hoofs !)
Additionally, Everyone who buys one of the pre-order will obtain a golden Baine Bloodhoof !



There will be 136 brand new cards in this expansion and It is time to see all of the cards.

Sidenotes for Mage and some other cards: I have started to design this expansion in Rise of Shadows times so didn't know that Druid will have same unspent mana synergy and thought that it would fit more in mage so that was really great surprise to see same synergy in druid for me. You will see that in some neutral cards and other class cards that some of them are weak versions of Uldum cards and some of them are same with DoD cards (Nozdormu for example). I didn't change them yet but I might change them in time.

I will be designing next expansion of the Year of the Peacock !

I hope you see my creations and like them ! There will be some explanations in the post below ! If you don't understand what card does/or have some questions after you saw some mechanics, Don't forget to check that post !

    Explanations

    • I will add upgraded Melodies as soon as possible.
    • Death Knight cards which E.T.C. The Prince produces will be same with The Lich King and Arfus.
    • Rhythms can stack; For example If you play Brewmaster Bard twice, When your opponent's turn starts, it restores 2 health then 2 health again. It also counts as "2 ongoing rhythms." for their synergetic cards that does something for your amount of ongoing rhythms such as Larithalis.
    • Targeted rhythms will be random. For example If you play Brewmaster Bard on your hero, It may restore 2 health for your opponent when rhythm triggers.
    • Rhythms works like this; For example, you played Rhytmic Shot, it dealt 2 damage to your opponent, you've ended the turn, your opponent's turn started, it dealt 2 damage to your enemy again, your opponent played their turn, your opponent ended the turn, then you played your turn, you ended your turn, your opponent's turn started, it dealt to damage again, your turn, opponent's turn, 2 damage again.
      So; 1 copy of Rhytmic Shot deals 8 damage totally in a single use without another cards or spelldamage.
    • Rhythm cards can't be upgraded by spelldamage. Spelldamage only apllies the spells first use. For example; Rhytmic Shot's damage would be upgraded to 3 if you have spelldamage +1 but when Rhythm triggers while you have spelldamage +1, they won't be upgraded.
    • There are 2 forms for each Choose one minions normally, so Butterfly Ballet changes Wardruid Loti or another choose one minion that has more than 2 forms to another form randomly.
    • Tame the Beast is a targettable and non-targetable spell at the same time but it is useable only when you don't control any beasts. You can only target it to an enemy neutral beast. If there isn't a neutral beast on the board, it summons a neutral beast on your side of battlefield but if there is a neutral beast on the battlefield at your opponent's side, you can't use it to summon a random neutral beast and you always need to not control any beasts to be able to use this card.
    • Water Sorceress will give you a minion discover always, just its spell generation needs unspent mana crystal.
    • Arcane Cadance won't repeat if your maximum mana is 2. Also, it won't repeat if you use your mana before using it.
    • Arcane Cadance's target isn't random, it will deal damage your first target when it repeats.
    • When Nozdormu the Timeless starts the game over, it will be only for you. It will add all of the used cards to your deck (included itself). Your hand will be the same with your mulligan after you play Nozdormu the Timeless with coin if you have it on start. It will also add a copy of itself to your deck without its battlecry. It will be 10-mana 8/8 minion. Your deck will be shuffled and your draws will not be the same. Discarded cards will also be added to your deck aswell if you discarded some. Your life total will be set to 30 if you increased it before and you will be healed if your health is below 30. If you changed your hero power, it will be set to basic one of your class and you will lose any buffs of Start of Game. So you will start the game again without Baku the Mooneater's, Genn Greymane's effect and also 5 random legendary cards won't be added to your deck if your deck has Prince Malchezaar. If you used a hero card, it will also be added to your deck and your hero will be set the basic one(skins will stay :D) with your hero power.
    • Hourglass of Time works like [herocard]Toki, Time-Tinker[/herocard]'s hero power; Temporal Loop
    • Exorcism silences ALL deathrattle cards; Weapons included.
    • Giveable keywords are status keywords. Poisonous, Windfury, Divine Shield, Stealth, Rush, Charge, Taunt, Spelldamage +1, Lifesteal, Reborn and Mega-Windfury(if you are lucky enough).
    • Immune cannot be given to minions via "give a random keyword" mechanic.
    • Spelldamage +1 is stackable. If you give it a minion with Spelldamage +1, it will be Spelldamage +2. same with 2-3-4.
    • If "Can't be targetable by spells or Hero powers" and "Can't Attack" will be keywords in some day, They can be also given to minions by "give a random keyword to a minion" mechanic.
    • Lute Pupil can cast upgraded melodies, same with Illidari Lead Guitarist, All targets will be random.
    • After using Wrathion, The Black Prince, your hero can only deal damage to attackers if you are weapon-equipped.
    • Orcish Horror Tale deals damage for both overloaded mana crystals. If you have 2 from last turn and 2 from ongoing turn; it will deal 6 total damage with its Overload:(2).
    • Xia, Queen of Suffering's "spent health" means damaging your hero on your turns. I have texted it like that because of room issues.
    • When you played Satyr Flutist, There will be 2 options like Choose one cards to pay mana or health.
    • When you played Mistress of Ceremonies if there are 3 ongoing Rhythms for example, all will trigger twice when your opponent's turn start.
    • Seduction will make your minions swap with opponent's minions. Every minion swap sides with the minion in front of it. If there is no minions in front of them, they won't swap. If there are not equal amount of minions, Your or Your opponet's right-most minion won't swap sides.
    • When you play Khaz'Goroth, it won't give you armors from Battlecry effects. Same with Tess Greymane. It will only summon minions that gives you armor but won't trigger their battlecry.
    • When you play Arcanite Ripper your ongoing Rhythm:(3) will change into Rhythm:(4) for example. Same with when it unequipped.
    • Val'kyr Partygoer can give you any card that kills it. If a spell kills it, it adds that spell ,If it dies by a hit from a minion, it adds that minion. If a weapon kills it, it adds that minion and if a hero power kills it, it adds that hero power to your hand as a spell with its cost.
    • Discovering a Melody can give you Neutral Melodies.
    • Warning ! Playing a Humming Bird to an empty board and ending the turn will kill it instantly unless you give it charge.
    • Tuskarr Announcer triggers battlecrys randomly.
    • Voodoo Mistress can give you only Rhythm:(X) cards not all of the cards with rhythm text.
    • Upgraded hero powers via Incorrigible Fan is same with old upgraded Hero Powers.

    Finally finished explanations and added some more tokens that I forgot to add.

    I will add upgraded versions of melodies in a week, it seems i didn't saved them permanently so their links died, couldn't find them so I will make them again and with the DoD coming, it might take time. :)

    I hope you enjoy.
