    Good news: since I failed to register in time for my bachelors degree, I can participate in this week's competition :')

    Here's my first idea (with a typo I'll fix later):

    On it's own, it's a Murloc Tidehunter with reversed stats. But it can get as big as a 6/7 on a full board of Recruits. Still, I think the amount of set up required makes it balanced. It's a lot more crazy in wild, where he can get as big as a 10/11 with [Hearthstone Card (Bran Bronzebeard) Not Found], a 3/4 on 3 with 3 1/1s in Odd Pally and/or with Lost in the Jungle and Air Raid, not to mention cards like Muster for Battle and Stand Against Darkness.

    Feedback, going from newest to oldest:

    Interesting idea, doesn't seem too overpowerd. The Spellburst is too strong, since you can choose the one you need at the moment. I'd make this a 2 mana 1/2 because, as it is, you play this on 1 and have nothing to do on 2 except HP, and then the companion on 3 I just realised you can't do that because it has to be a 1-Cost. Card's still good as is.

    Really like the idea, this is a Weasel Tunneler that isn't completely useless for your opponent.

    Not sure if I like this more than the Moonfire one, but this is certainly less susceptible to Goosy shenanigans than the other version. It's balanced otherwise. Shouldn't it be a Beast? Forgot how Moonkins work

    I like the concept of the card, but I'm not crazy about either in terms of name. Not really sure what else to use, sorry.

    I like the idea, but I feel it could easily be abused turn one with something like The Coin or Lightning Bloom. The overload might solve that, though. The name is also a little long imo, how about "Bad Luck Freshman"?

    Great card! Quick question: If I cast Dark Skies (couldn't think of a Mage effect), will only the first hit target an enemy, or the entire spell?

    Not crazy about the name, but my only suggestion for it is "Blcuk Cat". (PUNS!)

    People would hate playing this card, and I honestly don't think the stats are good enough for the effect. Could probably get away with it being a 3/3.

    Simple, solid card with targeted draw. I like it! If you change the name and art, you could even make it dual class with Demon Hunter.

    … Why is this a DH card? They have 0 synergy whatsoever with beasts. It could work as a dual class if it also got buffed by Demons, or as a Hunter and/or Druid card.

    Good card with a good effect. Nice!

    Nice reload after an Evocation. Also great with Fireball and the new spell that adds 1/1s to your hand for killing your opponent over multiple turns.

    Wild would LOVE this guy. I'd make a 1/2 just so it's not killable by Mortal Coil. Name could also be improved a little, how about "sacrificial Freshman"?

    Not sure I like this card, DH has a bunch of ways to abuse it.

    Don't really see why this discovers a Warlock spell. Can't make it Mage/Warlock either, since that's not a legal combination.

    Nice card, but I don't know how to feel about it adding cards from other expansions just like that. (yes, yes, Boom Bots and Annoy-A-Trons, but those made more sense in their context). Maybe at least explain what Witchwood Apple does in the card text. Thematically, the card's great!

    Good card! How would double Battlecry work if the the enemy is at 1 Health, would it be a 1/5?

    [Hearthstone Card (The Murmuring Elemental) Not Found] for Choose One, really nice card!

    But what does Pot of Dragon do? :p

    Deck looks interesting, will keep an eye on it for when I have the cards. I'm not sure A-Sol alone is enough of a finisher.

    Anyone knows the list for the deck bundle? It looks like good value, especially if it's a full set of champs.

    I'm sorry, I know this isn't your intention, but that deck name makes me think of some guy coming outta nowhere and yelling "DIANA, MOTHERF***ER!"

    Edit: Regarding the deck itself, I'm not sure about it. You only have 9 Nightfall cards, including Diana, and your only trigger for Rex are Warning Shot and Miss Fortune. Seems a bit inconsistent.

    Me, almost two months ago: Well, looks like Mythgard is spoiling cards for it's final expansion, great opportunity to make people aware of the game.

    This looks interesting. Off the top of your head, how would you make a wild version of this?

    Anything good for her yet? I imagine she might actually work well with the trolls if they get more spells like Icequake.

    The first question I ask when I see a new set of cards is "Which one of them synergyses with Nautilus?".

    No, "How viable is it?" isn't a question worth bringing up :p

    That, or they're introducing a day/night mechanic... that has nothing to do with Nightfall and Daybreak...

    It may also be that Nightfall/Daybreak add some sort of change to the board, the way Deep does, and Rahvun's effect prevents Nightfall from triggering, for example.

    So what's the order of summoning in this game? If my Rekindler summons Nautilus, who gets the SpellShield?

    On a side-note, purely as a character, Nocture looks AWESOME!

    Let me add another question to the discussion: if the deck tracker is built into the game, should it be allowed in tournaments? (assuming tournaments don't already allow it)
