Ladies, Gentlemen, and those of us who know better...
I welcome you to the Year of the Bear's Core Set!
That's right, I, a complete stranger (unless you're in the r/customhearthstone discord) am taking a crack at an entire custom hearthstone year! And where else to start than with the year's core set?
WELCOME TO THE YEAR OF THE BEAR CORE SET!~ Claps all around, yay is me, I've somehow made it this far through mediocrity. Failing upwards. Why Bear? I like bears. Bears are cool. This core set focuses a lot on shaking things up for classes, perhaps even more so that the Gryphon set, and includes a few overall changes:
RARITY READJUSTMENT: YotG's set features 9 Commons, 4 Rares, 2 Epics, and 1 Legendary per class as a general rule (with Warrior as an exception). In this set, we've traded in 1 Common for another Epic, as well as...
SECOND CLASS LEGENDARY: To allow class Legendaries more room to breathe as well as to allow more powerhouses per class. The classic set features 1 Legendary per class due to expansions at the time doing the same; it's about time we caught up again.
10 NEUTRAL EPICS: Why the hell are there only five Neutral Epics? Doubling the number gives me more breathing room to make sure I can get more of the techs and staples the rarity allows.
THE DAWN OF MULTI-TARGETING: That's right, fucker. Yeah, you reading this. I've done it; butchered a sacred cow. Send kind regards and/or death threats to my discord. In all seriousness, Multi-Targeting is a design space I've wanted to explore and employ for a while now, and I'm not one to worry too much on UI and programming. I understand people won't agree, though, but this is a dead sacred cow I'm willing to die on.
TRADEABLE RETURNS: (As of 7/27/21) I've decided to make Tradeable an evergreen keyword so that I can continue to use it throughout the years here.
Without any more preamble, here's the set, in class order!
DEMON HUNTER
DRUID
HUNTER
MAGE
PALADIN
PRIEST
ROGUE
SHAMAN
WARLOCK
WARRIOR
NEUTRAL
THAT'S ALL, FOLKS
Already working on the expansions and Mini-Sets that'd comprise the year, but for now you'll all just have to wait~
PATCH NOTES:
*7/27/21: Nerfed Faceless Amalgamator, fixed Ner'Zul (was never meant to be a Battlecry), added Tradeable to Mak'Gora
