Sorry if this annoys you, but I have made Descent of Dragons cards for this class. You can check them by scroll down a little bit or: http://hearthcards.net/setsandclasses/#7914-D

@Reiner I like this one better. It's more flavorful. it reminds me to the HP of one of my custom Classes.

Remade the Hero Power to fit in the novel.
Now "The Scourge" is the Upgraded Hero Power!

Adjust:
Remove the card draw from Strengths and add it to Limitations.

Adding summoning minions and Taunt to Strengths.

Adding weapon buffs to Limitations.

Aside from the disruption and some Armor, Freeze, Resurrect effects, then you are right, this is just "DH but Slower". Maybe adding Undead type and some Undead synergy cards or making special things like Sigil in DH will do, but that's a lot of work. I will think more about it when I have time. TY!

You did such a nice job in terms of creating a Hearthstone-like cards (It is not easy to pull off). I like the cards in their design. The one thing I don't like is the core concepts of DK are very similar to DH. It feels like it needs to have something else to become a complete standalone class.

love the fact that you made a 1000 win hero

Adjust the cost of Bloodcracker from (4) to (5) Mana and remove the Lifesteal.

@Nekkro
I'm glad you like it! I think I'm still gonna make a little more since I still have some unused art like this one.

Don't worry about it. You're one guy, not an entire design team

@DustenStein, @Caesar
Maybe you guys are right, when I made the Hero Power, I just wanted it to be as simple as it could, so I didn't notice the novel part. I guess I should learn more about the class when making it.
Caesar (4.1)2 years ago
Yeah that's true, though it checks every box in balance, what the class does and interesting gameplay...but I guess novelty is a big part especially for a new class'HP
Nekkro 2 years ago
@Reiner are you gonna keep going with the class in the Custom Class Galery? It would be amazing to see a little more of what this class is capable of.
DustenStein 2 years ago
not fancy but the opposite of novel. As you've said, it's basically just Hunter + Rogue
Caesar (4.1)2 years ago
I actually love the HP. It's like a Hunter+Rogue+DH+Mage, Hero Power doesn't need to be fancy by definition :thinking:
DustenStein 2 years ago
THe hero power? It's literally just flipped Rogue's hero power which is boring
Reiner (4) (creator)2 years ago
@DustenStein
Is there any problem with the Hero Power?
At first glance, yeah, it's quite similar to DH, but actually DK doesn't have multiple draw like DH, and is there any disruption or Deathrattle in the DH core set and the Initiate set?
DustenStein 2 years ago
or don't. That's a big change
DustenStein 2 years ago
make it a 2/2 that gains +1 Attack until your next turn only when one dies
Reiner (4) (creator)2 years ago
@Caesar
I know Bloodcracker is broken but I am not sure how to nerf it and you are right, some of these cards are underpowered but every class always has some bad cards so i don't think I'm gonna change it.
Reiner (4) (creator)2 years ago
@Nekkro
Thanks, but Rune needs you to not spend all your Mana to keep the bonus every turn so I don't think its easy at all.
DustenStein 2 years ago
That reminds me though, I haven't done an initiate set for my DK class. I feel like I'll be particularly inspired by some disruption cards here
DustenStein 2 years ago
I don't like the Hero Power and find it a little strange that drawing cards is one of their strengths. Looking at strengths, you see 4 things that Demon Hunter has (or at least is supposed to have). I love the keyword, the portraits and some disruption cards
Caesar (4.1)2 years ago
As for every new class, there would probably be some broken deck on day 1...Bloodcracker Aggro DK cough cough
But this looks fun, I love the keyword, but floating mana is quite more punishing than it may seem, so some Rune cards feel underpowered (Purge the Weak and Runeforged especially)
Nekkro 2 years ago
I think they hinted that the next new class this year was going to be DK. Although I would personally prefer it to be a Monk.
But the cards looks cool. Rune seems a little to easy to activate.
