NEW Dr Boom Legendaries

[Deleted]

I've seen alot of discussion over Dr. Boom aka Dr. Balanced everywhere, so I had a go at making some altnernative Legendaries that could perhaps compete for that 7 mana spot and hopefully open a few new deck possibilities. Here they are enjoy!

7 Mana LEGENDARIES






Notes:

- Vindicator Maraad - Blood Knight can steal ALL Divine Shield 4 times, thus getting +12/+12.
- Anub'arak - Is Undead for flavour, doesn't have to be.
- Baron Kazum - I'm assuming Blizzard, tweeked all Giants maknig them a 'race'.
- Ravencrest - Was taken from hearthcards, thanks to whoever made it.
- Falstad Wildhammer - Essentially the weapon is invulnerable so long he remains Enraged, whenever it dies it immedietly re-equips.

Please PM me any 1-2 Mana Cost Legendaries you have, thanks!

Ankle Biter: 1 mana, nerubian, 2/3 with deathrattle deal 5 damage to the enemy hero.
aka a more reliable version of what priests do.

Pay 2 Win: 2 mana, 1/1 with battlecry summon a random legendary from both player's decks into play.

I like the concept of most of the these a lot, the numbers I'm little less confident in with a few, but the concepts are pretty neat.

[Kelimbror]

I do like *some* of the concepts, but they are mostly way overbudget, underbudget, or simply not fun. A card that lets you see your opponents hand? That basically undermines the entire design of gameplay in a card game. No.

Good efforts though. On topic, I've seen less Dr Boom in this season than before. I think people are experimenting with all the expansion cards. Maybe he'll return once all the wings are out, idk.

[Ryme]

Indeed, people are also not playing BGH nearly as much, which makes it a perfect time to use Dr. Boom again. The cycle continues.

[Hey There Guys its Metro]

Where do you get these I can't find them in game yet?

These aren't real cards.

[skorpio]

Mr. Smite - seems ok, but getting 2 Gorehowls in a row could be OP.
Vindicator Maraad - too unbalanced, silence and you have 4/4 body for 7 mana
Anub'arak - ok
Khadgar - too random, unpredictable and mostly OP
Ravencrest - UTH, totems and muster for battle says "Hi!"
Kazum - buff handlock more
Falstad - I see this in priest decks to heal him and ping more weapons
Aegwynn - bigger Coldlight Oracle
Collidus - seeing enemy hand is always OP

[DustWolf]

I must say that I love the Mr. Smite card text! It's basically already in the game but not really! If I were to judge these cards, I think he'd be the most likely to be added. Maybe Nubarak as well.

[Sierra85]

that Collidus card to see the Opponent's hand, is awesome!

that needs to be in the next expac

[Ryme]

I think Collidus is too game breaking to ever see use as is, you could potentially allow it if you changed the text to "at the end of your turn, randomly reveal a card from your opponents hand". Allow to pick the same one twice, only showing you the card for a couple of seconds or so.

Even then, I'm not sure how much Blizzard would accept something like that. But mind vision is a thing, so maybe?

[Notshauna]

In order:
Mr Smite is pretty good, I don't like the amount of randomness but that's CLEARLY not a factor for Blizzard/Hearthstone players

Maraad is awful design mega *Hearthstone analogue for keyworded abilities here* are super duper lazy, I don't think they add anything just have the ability expanded without a new keyword.

Anub is pretty boring. That isn't legendary tier for me.

Khadgar needs more limits like maybe spending some mana to trigger that, it's more complicated than Hearthstone usually gets but it offers a good power switch

Ravencrest is super duper gimicky, using player archetypes he's Johnny bait, but his power level seems to be so high that he might just be overpowered. Hard to say.

Kazum seems to want you to play Giant tribal, I don't think you should make people try and play giant tribal.

Falstad is weird, it's effectively a permanent weapon if they have taunters/can heal through you damage. It's something I'd need to know more about Hearthstone to comment on in regards to power, but it seems the most like towards where I think Hearthstone should be going.

Aegwynn the magic player in me scoffs at her, I scoff at her.

Collidus is pretty powerful, perfect knowledge is useful but since this game has no interactions with active players it's not that impactful.

[muto]

Mr Smite = okay-ish
Maraad = sticky I guess, which is good; might even bait hard removal or silence
Anub'arak = pretty good
Khadgar = very situational, I doubt he would be played except in Randuin Wyrnn
Ravencrest = way too strong, this card would be overpowered in Shaman, Paladin, and Zoo decks
Baron Kazum = maybe good in Giants Mage with Duplicates and Echo of Medivh, but that deck sucks anyways, so meh
Falstad Wildhammer = a worse Mr Smite, it would never get played, except maybe in Priest since you can heal him and keep on triggering his enrage.
Aegywnn = probably the best card of the set. 6/6 dodges BGH, and can mill your opponent
Collidus = wayyyyyyy overpowered. A card that allows you to play around your opponents hand should never be implemented.

[AeneasBK]

What about Collidus effect being a once-time-only battlecry?

[Kelimbror]

What about Collidus effect being a once-time-only battlecry?

No. The entire reason why cards like thoughtsteal or mind vision work is because they don't let you know where in the deck those cards are, only that they have them. Being able to see exactly what cards someone has completely invalidates the gameplay of Hearthstone as well as most competitive card games of any variety.

You may as well call the card Sniperino. It's complete crap.

[Deleted]

I suspect you'd play Collidus see he has lethal, have no more mana, realize your doomed, end turn.

- Ravencrest is now 4/5 instead of 5/4.

- Baron Kazum costs 10, reduced by 2 instead of 8, reduce by 1.

- Falstad reworded to your hero has a 5/1 weapon equipped, instead of equip a 5/1 weapon.

[Deleted]

Mr.Smite into Gorehowl would be hilarious

[Orby]

This is probably my favorite of yours. Lovely concept!

[Dilbon]

Seeing the opponent's hand for one turn would be kinda awesome.

[ipoststuff]

DR.Boom is not OP because it is the only good 7mana legendary it is OP because it is OP.
