I love the designs!! The videos are so interesting to watch. I'm worried the desert keyword would be way too toxic and uninteractive though. A lot of people already dislike how boards don't matter anymore, so putting a bunch of entombs on a stick would feel bad no matter the mana cost. My idea would be that desert sends them to the deck after their next attack, so that they can choose to hold, trade off, or push aggro for a bit of counterplay. Also, another 20 20 darkness is cool as a callback, but if it was released as a miniset in the same expansion, it might feel redundant. What if the pay off would be to recruit all the minions you've deserted? Just some ideas, I love what you came up with!!
Hey thanks for the comment! I completely agree with your take on Desert; I also think it might be problematic, but decided to show it for flavor's sake. The same applies to any references or callbacks in my videos. If an opportunity appears I'll jump on it. If this followed the actual Hearthstone release schedule it might be weird seeing a callback to something that only just came out a few months ago, but Kobolds came out 7 years ago; I don't think anyone would raise an eyebrow at those references. I like your fix for the card though!
I don’t like the Channeling scroll. Even if it’s random, I think that Druid already does too much ramp. Maybe a defence scroll which gives armour? Or maybe a casting scroll which discovers a Druid/nature spell?
I mostly just made that one because most of the other unidentified items have a version with double the effect, but I could see it being problematic. Both of your suggestions seem like great alternatives!
@@BlututhHS Now I wait for a series of cards exclusives to an update of Dungeon Runs which get 2 random effects when drawn. Maybe as a double classes cards?
The only problem with Togglewaggle Jr would be your opponent would know when you play it as it would come up on the side (when playing it) created by Togglewaggle Jr….
Yeah, that's true, I guess the opponent would know that you played one of the three Secrets, but at least they wouldn't know from which class it came so it still gives you some secrecy.
I feel like if any class was gonna have an unidentified scroll, it would be Mage. I think honestly you can change it to an Unidentified Staff as a weapon with most of these effects and at would still work.
Kind of ticked of with seeing shadow word: Horrify, because if desert works like I think it does then that card is just a straight up copy of psychic scream. which even is a card from kobolds and catacombs...
It's not straight up a copy of Psychic Scream. Psychic Scream shuffled all minions into your opponent's deck, including your minions; Shadow Word: Horrify will shuffle all minions into their owner's deck (so your minions will go to your deck). This might be better or worse than Psychic Scream depending on what deck you're playing. It also synergizes with the new legendary I made unlike Psychic Scream.
@BlututhHS Yes, the effect is a little different, and thus has different interactions with certain cards, but you're suggesting adding K&C and this miniset to standard. Psychic Scream, Shadow Word: Horrify, and Repackage would all be legal at the same time. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it's against Hearthstone's set design philosophy
@@seanweb9051 In hindsight I should've probably given that effect to a different class since Psychic Scream is in the same set. The effect just screamed Priest flavor considering those similar cards you mentioned, but I still think it's a necessary effect to print for SOME class if Uul'gyneth gets printed too. EDIT: Maybe Druid should've had the effect actually, since they were the first class to get this effect through Recycle, and this is just an AoE version of that.
1:38 10 mana to get 3/3 and 3 secrets? I don't think that this is a legendary effect, like there is already a 2/2 that cost 2 and discover a secret, this card cost 2 times more and makes paladin secret more useless. Maybe if it would've activate them instantly or have effect like each turn first secret would cost 0 like Kalesgos 😅.
I love your creativity and energy, but giving Druid even more ramp is absurd. That class needs a way to avoid snowballing out of control like that, and I offer a solution you can explore in one of your videos, should you try to rework druid entirely. I call it "Ramp Overload". Basically, there is a global effect for Mana Crystal ramp cards that cost X more for each mana you gained through these means. So if it's turn 3 and I play Splish Splash Whelp, my next Whelp will cost 4 mana, because I gained a mana crystal. So instead of having 5 mana next turn and being able to play another whelp alongside something else, I instead have to spend 4 mana and destroy my entire curve. Furthermore, since I have ramped 2 crystals already, my next ramp card will cost 2 more, so a card like wildgrowth will cost 4 mana, Doomkin will cost 8 mana, and New Heights will cost 5 mana. Should I play any other ramp card, not only my turn becomes worse, but so my chances of snowballing diminish. Furthermore, this way, they can make druid cards be better by themselves, so that they don't have to worry for each ramp card making them obnoxious when dropped much earlier than they have to be.
This seems like a bad idea because it's too difficult to track. If I play wild growth on 2, does that make the wild growth I play on turn 12 to draw a card cost extra? My suggestion is just to make ramp generally be more expensive, if you want to nerf it. Put wild growth back to 3 mana, put doomkin to 7, put splish splash whelp to 3. That way is just easier
@@seanweb9051 There can be a little symbol like with corpses, under mana, which indicates how much mana you've ramped. And yes, ANY ramp would cost more for the rest of the game. My suggestion is to also make all ramp significantly cheaper, like a 1 mana wildgrowth a 2 mana whelp again. All across the board, they should cost 1 less, but have their cost increase by one for every ramp you played this game.
@@blitzdactyl I actually love this idea. I'm already starting to imagine what it'd look like with a meter beneath the Mana Crystal similar to the Corpse Counter, and then all the ramp cards could have a banner under their Mana Crystal to show they interact with this meter. I already have a lot of ideas for my Druid overhaul, but I would like to incorporate this idea and then make the video a two-parter if you don't mind. I will of course credit you with coming up with the idea.
@@BlututhHS I'm excited you're really considering it! Sure, use it how you want and credit as you see fit. I'm just happy with managing to get my idea across. Who knows, maybe Blizzard will even look at this one day and make something simillar enough.
