i'll go with this one i've made back when Scholomance was anounced, i don't want to make a new card because i'm focused in the custom exp, but in case of mass disliking, i might consider using one of my scraped ideas to make a new card.

Based on all the feed back, here's the definitive version:
Way more versatile now, you can use to aim your Arcane Missiles on the minion you want to hit; or protect a specific friendly minion against Deadly Shot. Less stats, more versatile and easier to understand. The chosen minion would have an aura around it like Reborn to remember the players who's chosen target. All other possible doubts will be answered in the descripition.
Lightning speed feedback because time is short:
Goliath: I would prefer a 1/1 statline, but it's good as it is.
MenacingBagel: Very nice! My only suggestion is to remove the "your opponent" line for "them".
Nirast: I like it, but i think it is too much. What about a 1/1 that summons a recruit with Taunt or Divine Shield? (and btw, all hits of Dark Skies will hit the chosen minion now).

Quote From KANSAS
This is really weird. How many effects in mage target random characters? There are things like Magic Missiles and Magic Missiles++, but those things already target enemies.
You don't get it, its ANY random target. Let's say you draw a Scroll of Wonder and it casts a Fireball, if you played a Luck Shifter last turn, the Fireball will target an enemy, got it? But yeah, maybe it's a little to much, i liked the "choose an enemy" suggestion, i'll think about.
And now the feedback:
Show Spoiler
Demonxz: I like it a lot, but i think it would be more flavourful if it combined only the effects of minions, since the cards that actually shapeshift are Druid minions.
BloodMefist: In general i like, except for the art and fact that it may go infinite, i'm pretty sure it wasn't your intencion, so i suggest adding "Another" after the "Add" and changing the art.
KANSAS: Good abillity and even better flavour, loved it.
linkblade: Nice effect but the flavour could be better. Why would the teacher give you an apple? Speacially an apple that attracts evil treants. What about making it something like a student pranking the teacher by giving a twisted apple to the teacher? (you, in this case)
R: I don't the fact that it generates a Warlock card, even if it fits the flavour. Most spells generators from mage nowadays specifically generates a Mage spell, making a mage card that generates a warlock card fells weird. Also, the stats, cost and effect doesn't match, i suggest either make it a 2 mana 1/1 that discover a Basic Mage spell; or a 2 1/1 for warlock.
grumpymonk: I would like it more if Odd DH wasn't a thing, but sadly it is, so i suggestion either making it a 1/1 or 1/2; or make the effect a Battlecry that only triggers once.
Cg8889: I like it, powerful but broken, nice effect and flavour, just put the same art with a higher resolution or a completetly new one and you're good to go.
frosthearth: Cool flavour and effect, but i'm not sure about the balance . In wild, this could be BROKEN in Quest Mage, if you could come with something that don't support it i would like your card a lot more.
Hordaki: Very cool effect, flavour, art, name, etc. Loved it.
Conduit: Not a fan of it. If it was half hunter half Dh i would like, but dual class is forbidden. I'll wait for your other ideas, but for now, i suggest to switch the Beast synergy with Demons.
anchorm4n: Very similar to Hordaki's card, but with a diferent flavour and more Health. I sujest only to reduce the Health a bit, but in general i loved it too.
Elfensilver: Loved it except for the art, change it and you're done.
thepowerofcheese: I like it, reminds me of [Hearthstone Card (Intrepid Iniciate) Not Found] but more powerful. The balance seens on point and the effect is very flavourful, good job.

Round 2, FIGHT!
Before explaining the card, let me share something really quickly. I'm right now creating a whole custom expansion, and i was pretty sure that at least 1 out of the 54 cards i've already made would fit the theme, and turns out, there is one card that fits! But sadly, it uses the exclusive keyword of the expansion, so i can't submit it... i got a little pissed, won't lie, but the show must continue.
Back to the card, the idea is to represent a black cat that brings bad luck to you, but since he's your pet, he throws the bad luck to your opponent. I was thinking of making it a deathrattle to add extra flavour, but i want a second opinion, so share your thoughts with the class, NOW! Feedback later as always.
Show Spoiler
And btw, here's the card i was talking about, i won't give more spoilers, in time you know what the keyword means

Three of my decks mentioned? Wow, i was expecting at least one, since i've been theorycrafting A LOT this expansion, but definitely wasn't expecting three. Thanks for the highlights!

Don't know about standard, but this will be bonkers in wild, simply by the Giant sinergy. As Regis said in the reveal video, Giant's costs only get reduced when drawn, so if you're at 10 health and you have a Molten Giant in your deck, it will cost 20 until you draw it. That means it will put on top Arcane Giant and Mana Giant for Quest Mage, Flesh Giant for Evenlock, Molten Giant for Thekal Aggro Paladin and Evenlock, Snowfury Giant for Aggro Overload Shaman and so on. This might be the new Naga Sea Witch, i hope not.

First card that came to my mind is Vilespine Slayer. This is very similar, but can use your hero power to trigger the condition and it is cheaper. Easy 5 stars.

Turn 1 Vicious Fledgling flashbacks. I hope the Overload will be a decent downside this time... but it might be an upside for Aggro Shaman, oh man, this card is actualy kinda scary.

Everyone is talking Prince Keleseth, but this is actualy a mix between Prince Keleseth and Prince Taldaram! (with the minions stats keeped) And both of those were pretty good in the right deck. Even with the beast restriction, i still think it is an insanely powerful and versatile card.

I wonder how it will work with N'Zoth, the Corruptor, will it keep the reduced stats or will all copies return as 9/9? Problably return as 9/9, but there's only one way to now for sure. Can't wait to try it.

Once again you guys surprise me. Didn't expected such aproval over Wether Forecast, thanks for the feedback. But about the use of Blizzard in it, i really didn't wanted change it, since a Blizzard is an actual climatic condition, but since there were lots of requests to change it, i've replaced Blizzard with... Volcano! Why Volcano do you ask me? Two reasons: 1- Rain of Toads were the one i was going to put, but the card ended up too wordy. 2- Healing Rain and Volcano are both from the Year of the Mammoth, so putting them together makes the card more realistic. Also, thats the same reason why i've decided to cut the second favorite: Earthquake. Hope you guys like the new version, and now my feedback.
Show Spoiler
Demonxz: I like it, but i would like it more if it costed (2) and had lower stats. Whirlkick Master was 2 mana and even yet it rarelly triggered its effect ( at least from my Arena experience), so a 2/2 or 2/3 stat line and a (2) cost would be better IMO.
Xarkkal: Yeah, 4 cost seens more fair and realistic. Removing Rush would just make it a little less insane, at 4 it would be at the same power level as Hyena Alpha, or maybe just a little bit higher. In general, i like it.
Nirast: Good callback to Blood of the Ancient One, i like it, but you probably should remove the line break after "into".
Grayghost: I don't know, Gift of the Wild is pretty bad even when generated, most of the time it i'll be just a 5/5 with Taunt. At about Power of the Wild or Wild Growth? It i'll make it less flavourful but also more versatile and useful.
CovenantKevlar: Three seens like a lot, it can complete the Shaman quest in one shot in the right situation. What about change it to " At the end of your turn, add an EVIL Cable Rat to your hand."?, it would make it more balanced and flavourful, passing the idea that the Cheese is smelling and is slowly attracting the rats.
KANSAS: Looks better than the old one, and if you remember, i was one of the few who liked the old one back in the "I Miss my X" comp. Honestly, i don't know how people didn't get the flavor from it, he does his work in a painful way, yet the client gets satisfied and pay him for his job, but since he works for you, the coin goes to you, that simple. Also, haven't people ever heard of golden teeths?
Cg8889: I Like it, but that effect is worth of an Epic card or even a Legendary but with more effects IMO. Not complaining tho, it's just a sugestion.
Pokeniner: Thats a lot of stats for 8 mana, even with the restriction. But i don't think it is broken, just really powerful, worth of making Mechlock a real thing, and as a Mech Warlock enthusiast ( for real, i played my Mechlock homebrew a lot when Boomsday came out) i realy liked it!
Bigcums: I'll be honest, i'm not a fan of [Hearthstone Card (Jan'alai) Not Found]'s wannabes, i have a little runt on them, and since i'm suspected to evaluate it, i'll leave it to others to evaluate.
CursedParot: Really loved Misstres of Fate, but giving the Plot Twist Casts When Drawn would make a easy 5 star for me. Also, you should put () between the 1.
grumpymonk: Clever Marksman is my favorite, it's a good paralel to Violet Spellwing. I like Drill Sargent too, but it seens a little unrealistic, and for Brigitte Abbendis, as i said above, not a fan of [Hearthstone Card (Jan'alai) Not Found]'s wannabes.
Bloodmefist: I like them all, but i like Set the Tabble a little more. It's balanced, flavorful and also funny. Good job on all of them.
Banananparty: Seens kinda meh, it i'll most of the time be just a 5 mana 5/7, and i'm not a fan of legendaries with nothing but raw stats. At about make it a 4 mana 5/7 or 7/5 and make it cast the fire ball right on your face? It would not only make it even more bulky for the stats, but also have a double edge blade, dealing a lot of damage to you, but also sinergizing with cards like Molten Giant, Hooked Reaver, Duskbat, etc.
anchorm4n: Really liked it, very flavourful. As you asked, i'll give some name suggestion, at about Menagerie Tamer, Circus Beastmaster, Flamering Sideshow, or maybe a mix of those? I don't know, at least i've tried.
linkblade: I'll would go with Primal Fury, it fits Druid more since board clears is not ecxatly their strenght and the flavour is amazing. Took me a while to realise (I'm a little sleepy today), but when i did i fell in love with it, nice job.

Thanks for pointing the typo, totally missed it. About the spells, i see why you don't like the fact that they are useless if you're not holding a dragon, i don't like that either, but it was necessary. Initially, they were useful even if you were not holding a dragon, but they ended up being too wordy or/and confusing, so unfortunately i had to put this limitation. Also, specific spells that are only useful in few decks and situations, like [Hearthstone Card (Tip the Scaless) Not Found], Deadly Poison, Deadly Arsenal or Sacrificial Pact are part of the game, so i don't think there's a design problem in that, especially considering the amount of cards that generate dragons we have nowadays. But anyway, thanks for sharing your thoughts on them. :)
i'll go with this one i've made back when Scholomance was anounced, i don't want to make a new card because i'm focused in the custom exp, but in case of mass disliking, i might consider using one of my scraped ideas to make a new card.

And btw, here's the card i was talking about, i won't give more spoilers, in time you know what the keyword means
Three of my decks mentioned? Wow, i was expecting at least one, since i've been theorycrafting A LOT this expansion, but definitely wasn't expecting three. Thanks for the highlights!
Bought both Pre-orders, i got:
1- Ace Hunter Kreen
2- Speaker Gidra
3- Mozaki, Master Duelist (Golden, but not from the golden packs)
4- Ras Frostwhisper
5- Disciplinarian Gandling(Top 2 on my wishlist)
6- Instructor Fireheart
7- Lorekeeper Polkelt (Top 1 on my wishlist)
And all epics i wanted. 7 legs in total, and two less legendaries compared to my Ashes of Outland's pre-orders.
Didn't get any legendary from the golden packs, and i'm still missing some from my wishlist, but i'm satisfied overall.
Don't know about standard, but this will be bonkers in wild, simply by the Giant sinergy. As Regis said in the reveal video, Giant's costs only get reduced when drawn, so if you're at 10 health and you have a Molten Giant in your deck, it will cost 20 until you draw it. That means it will put on top Arcane Giant and Mana Giant for Quest Mage, Flesh Giant for Evenlock, Molten Giant for Thekal Aggro Paladin and Evenlock, Snowfury Giant for Aggro Overload Shaman and so on. This might be the new Naga Sea Witch, i hope not.
I'm so glad that this is not even costed, non Even Totem Shaman needs more love.
I know that card will be a pain for me sooner or later, but i can't wait to play it after a Juicy Psychmelon.
My god, this is nuts in Even lock, i hope this will be enough to ressurect that deck, coz i love it.
First card that came to my mind is Vilespine Slayer. This is very similar, but can use your hero power to trigger the condition and it is cheaper. Easy 5 stars.
I'm on it! Here's my ideas
Druid of the Storm tokens and Fandral/Ossirian Tear form:
Ps: The wolves are not ghosts, spirits or specters, they are just infused with lightning, thats why they have the Beast tag.
Turn 1 Vicious Fledgling flashbacks. I hope the Overload will be a decent downside this time... but it might be an upside for Aggro Shaman, oh man, this card is actualy kinda scary.
Everyone is talking Prince Keleseth, but this is actualy a mix between Prince Keleseth and Prince Taldaram! (with the minions stats keeped) And both of those were pretty good in the right deck. Even with the beast restriction, i still think it is an insanely powerful and versatile card.

No wild decks allowed? Damn, i really hope this is a bug.
Had lots of ideas for that one, but i'll to limite myself to post only three. Those are the ones i thought were more interesting. Thoughts?
As always, feedback later.
I think this is a good way to represent what i do on this site.
Warlock because it's my fav class, Hunter watermark coz it's my second favorite and the Stealth coz i only appear once in a while.
