TOP CUSTOM CARDS of the Week #41 | Card Review | Hearthstone

[@ultradryguy5788]

6:20 You could make the card 4 mana and then change the choices into summon 2 2/2 treants (worse than Landscaping) or change all treants into ancients (worse than Treespeaker because you don't get the extra 4/4).

[@_Stahv]

Ultra Dryguy or it could be 3mana summon two treants and the second option stays the same? That’s what I was thinking

[@mesome777]

Damn it damn it damn it... beat me to literally this exact thought

Could you use he upgrade mechanic, that it enables the Twinspell once it reaches level 2 or so? Edit: Or enable the second option once the player has X mana crystals.

[@jordanstampfli3562]

You could make the card zero mana but destroy one of your mana crystals.

@@alishafi9645 the card is more focused on the flavor rathet than being good and flashy. And would mby even be run in burgle rouge they now use the 1 cost card for a random card and seeing that enables some cards (the 2/3 that becomes a 3/4 rush and the lifesteal weapon) it couls he a really good and flavorfuly fun card

[@ZackBogucki]

The fact that Cave Hippo doesn't have taunt itself makes it much harder to compare with Safeguard. It reminds me instead of a stronger yet slower Arcanosmith, and I think power-creeping on that card would be totally appropriate.

[@cristiancirica268]

Comparing Shuffling another Bomb with What The Juggernaut Mark II does is kinda badly thought. By shuffling another Bomb for each other shuffled Bomb, you raise the chance to draw one. Double damage that can be drawn later on is weaker than a Bonus chance to draw normal damage now or in a few turns

[@xIPatchy]

Cristian Cirica Also has anti synergy with dr boom, meaning you wouldn’t want to play it until after dr boom in most cases. I personally think that juggernaut would still put bomb warrior over the top however. The meta is already being shaped by the deck, with all the weapon removal out there, no need to add another insane card to the deck

[@Arenuphis]

There's also the fact that doctor boom has already shown us that doing something for every bomb in the opponents deck is actually pretty cheap

[@MonochromaticPrism]

Also doubling bombs is way more powerful if you can bounce the effect. Transformation can only happen once.

[@ModrunOfficial]

yeah i disagree with the massive nerf because of this. when ur at 5hp, having more 5bombs is more dangerous than less 10bombs. also cards like dr boom dont get better from this card atleast if they let boom trigger from both bombs and mines i would probably say 7 mana 5/5 or something is alright

[@0IIIIII]

Raising the chance to draw one only matters if you’re at 5 or less health. Trump is correct. In most circumstances 10 damage bomb is the same as two 5 damage bombs.

[@rawovunlapin8201]

So far the best solution I've read, even if it's text heavy. Good job 👍

[@NerdOracle]

what about the druid legendary that synergizes with choose one? feels like you give druid too much overall value if you allow them to combo those cards

[@TheMoocow2009]

The original Iron Juggernaut was a 6 mana 6/5 that shuffled "2 bombs" (one 10 damage mine) into your opponent's deck, and it was terrible and saw almost no play. Yet trump thinks that Mark 2, which he evaluates as shuffling ~3 "bombs" on average, is so overpowered that it needs to be a 10 mana 5/5? I get that it becomes more overwhelming when you have other cards adding bombs, and there's potential to get more than 3 bombs, but I think he's heavily overestimating this card. It needs a nerf, but nowhere near that big.

[@madmanwithateapot7367]

That and it's not as good as adding another bomb as it changes them to mines so no synergy with boomaster

[@TheGreatwhitellama]

6:20 ~ I think the fact that it's the first twinspell that is a choose one effect gives you an opportunity to balance it. You can make it so that the first cast you get to choose, but the second cast has to be the same one you chose. That will avoid people taking advantage of the card early on.

[@jasburaka8085]

Casual 3 years late but I decided to rewatch this series and I think you could nerf Crystal Growth by removing the choice. "Twinspell. If you have a Treant, change a random one into a 5/5 Ancient. Otherwise, summon a 2/2 Treant."

[@SensibleMinded]

For Crystal Growth what if the text read: 4 mana Twinspell Transform your treants into 5/5 ancients. If there are no treants on your board summon 2 2/2 treants

[@hawkmore]

I think that's WAY WAY more powerful. A twinspell exists that summons 5 2/2 treants...Druid is incredibly good at flooding their board with treants, and not only would this card be good at that as well, but the effect of transforming them all to 5/5's is a way more powerful effect than a 4 mana spell should have, ESPECIALLY on a twinspell that are supposed to generally be a little worse than a regular card

[@collinguo2175]

@@hawkmore You do know there's already a card that does that, but staples on a 4/4 for 1.

[@dubspool]

Collin Guo the difference between crystal growth and faldori strider is that strider gave you a max of 3 spiders that were 4/4 per card. Crystal growth gives you the possibility to flood your board with 5/5s. Think of crystal growth as a slightly worse pre-nerfed caverns below.

This is still 2 mana right?

[@tortoise-chan]

The thing about bumbling burglar is that you don't get a chance to kill or transform the minion that comes out, which makes it significantly worse against combo. It pretty much will never reliably work as a combo breaker against malygos decks, resurrect decks, or basically anything not relying on battlecries.

Crystal growth - Make it 3 mana and make it a choose one card instead since its an exclusive mechanic to Druid and synergies with quest Druid (untapped potential)

[@algotkristoffersson15]

It’s ALREADY a choose one card.

[@MadhatClemens]

Instead of trying to force the Twinspell aspect, just keep it with Choose One since Stelladris still synergizes with it. Crystal Growth: 4 Mana *Choose One* twice - Summon a 2/2 Treant; or Transform one into a 5/5 Ancient. Prevents early game abuse, retains the Stelladris value, suddenly becomes usable (but not broken) in Token Druid.

@@mahmoudkhalil9962 It would fix the Turn 2 5/5 and be possible to play it just as intended

[@CoolJacob100]

For crystal growth my balance proposal would be to keep it the same as it is, but then change it to transform a treant into a frozen 5/5 Ancient. So this way it would be unable to attack turn 3 if you were to play it turn 2. Flavor behind idea of it being frozen was because I thought of a crystal encasing the treant and causing it to grow until it released a powerful ancient.

[@caljones2894]

6:20 What if you gave it "Choose One: Twinspell: Summon a 2/2 or Twinspell: Transform a Treant into a 5/5"? It does remove some of the flavour, and might make the card a bit overcomplicated, but could have some interesting usage nonetheless

[@TheSorrowfulAngel]

Crystal Growth is actually not nearly as much as a problem as it seems. Basically, twinspell means something like "Add a copy of this card to your hand. The copy does not have this effect" So if we stop limiting ourselves with the "twinspell" keyword and just put the text on there, we have options! Like "Add a copy that cost 1 mana more of this card to your hand. The copy does not have this effect" Its a bit wordy, but fixes the card. Alternatively, you could also add onto the twinspell version like this: "Twinspell The Twinspell created costs 1 more"

[@AM-we1es]

Crystal growth: 4 mana choose twice summon a 2/2 treat or transform one into a 5/5 ancient

[@NinjaManXYZ]

Crystal growth fix seems easy to fix, make the twinspell give a copy of the option you chose, instead of a choose one on the twinspell created card. So if you pick summon a treant, you get a spell to summon a treant. If you choose to transform into an ancient it will give you that spell into your hand.

[@gabemagicmaster2179]

Crystal growth could instead say or give a trent +2+3/+3+2 or whatever the desire balance but I get that makes it lose some of it's flavor

[@williamlozano5228]

6:20 "Twinspell, Choose One: Summon a 2/2 Crystal Treant that can't be targetted bt spells or hero powers OR Transform a Treant into a 5/5 Ancient" The simplest way to balance the card is to make the treant you summon with it unable to be targeted by the twinspell. The card could still be 2 mana, but buff that specific treant a bit to give an overall nerf to the card while still keeping it as a good turn one coin option or turn 2 option. We see strong 1 mana 4 stat minions with good effects as class cards and in neutral, so this isn't far out at all

[@t4nz1n39]

If you give crystal growth ‘echo’ or ‘repeatable this turn’ it not longer poses the turn 2 5/5 problem and increases power for less flexibility

[@milipika224]

To balance Crystal Growth have the twinspell effect activate on the choose one effect e.g. if u choose a 2/2, you can only make another 2/2 and same for ancient

[@thewonderdoc2999]

You could balance Crystal Growth by having the Twinspell be only a copy of the chosen option.

[@blahthebiste7924]

I think that would kind of ruin the flavor, though.

[@Fateherald]

2:15 That’s not like shuffling another bomb into the deck at all, that would increase the odds of taking damage not increase damage taken which is what the card is doing. Still agree with the ratings tho.

[@shadowforce212]

I get that in theory iron juggernaut mark 2 would basically be like shuffling an extra card in the opponents deck but if it did it would increase the outcome of drawing a bomb. Where as the doubling damage effect doesn't increase the likeliness to draw a bomb.

[@PibsterPewPew]

The bumbling burglar should summon a 'Silent Alarm-o bot' which is the same but just has stealth. so it cant just be cleared so easy and thematically is way better, like the burglar has tripped a silent alarm by accident

[@InternetUser11]

Crystal Growth 3 mana Twinspell Choose one: Summon a 2/2 Treant with Taunt Or Transform a Treant into a 5/5 ancient with Rush I tried to make it balanced, but it might be a bit op or up

[@selectivepontification8766]

5/5 Ancient with Rush seems about right, Rush and Taunt seems a bit much. On second thought, being able to potentially get a 5/5 Rush on turn 3 seems pretty OP to begin with. Maybe sticking with the vanilla Ancient (or keeping Taunt) would make it almost balanced.

[@InternetUser11]

@@selectivepontification8766 I mean a 5/5 rush on 3 would require the use of a treant on 2, which means using coin, and is a 2 card combo

[@ottojesus2190]

Balanced crystal growth: 3 mana, twinspell summon a 2/2 treant or upgrade one of your treants into a 5/5 ancient (same as original) - if you control a treant this cost 2 mana.

[@ottojesus2190]

Hopefully I am not to late for trump to see my perfect solution

[@EDoyl]

I feel like applying Trump's logic on the iron juggernaut makes the actual iron juggernaut seem overpowered, which it definitely wasn't. Effectively 2 bombs should be 3 mana and a 6/5 is worth almost 5 Mana. So iron juggo OP?

[@traviswatchorn3307]

5:07 I would probably just remove the twinspell keyword to balance it. Probably too strong on that kind of a card

[@Toni-rx7ts]

But then I would reduce its cost to 1, which would bear the problem of a 1 mana 3/3 when u cast on a existing treant

[@BennyR92]

Well without Twinspell this card is terrible. Who would play a 2 Mana 2/2? Transforming exactly one Treant into a 5/5 isn't good either without the Twinspell of being able to summon one in the first place.

[@manafusion]

Crystal Growth (4 mana): Choose one: Summon two 2/2 Treants or Transform up to two treants into a 5/5 Ancient. The boost in mana is accompanied by another Treant summon/transformation because it keeps it more balanced. To get the package, you still need to be, at best, turn 3 "summon two 2/2s" which can be easily counterable at this point but overall has the same statline as a 2 mana 2/2 Treant summon, just doubled up. At the same time, if the opponent, knowing that you got the twinspell in your hand, leaves your treants alive, then you can transform up to two Treants to Ancients and that can be a profit in and of itself since they knowingly let it be. Or it could be more mindgames by leaving a treant alive so the enemy wastes 4 mana to transform the remaining Treant into a 5/5 Ancient then you killing the treant with a Dynomatic or some such.

[@rawovunlapin8201]

I like it, but it should say something along the lines of "transform up to 2 random friendly treants into 5/5 Ancients.", As hearthstone cards don't target more than once

[@JacquesSnacques]

How about a 2 mana Twinspell "Transform a Treant you control into a 5/5 Ancient. If you have none, summon a 2/2 Treant.". This keeps the same feel if it, but restricts choices from the player, which you mentioned is what made it so strong.

[@itbekale_5224]

For Crystal Growth, I'd suggest changing the card text to "Twinspell; Choose One - Summon 2 2/2 Treants; or Transform a Treant into a 5/5 Ancient", while also increasing the spell cost to 3. I think this would prevent any overpowered coin plays and still give the card an acceptable amount of value.

[@Bandicoot720]

I was thinking maybe Patches, in Charge would be decent if his text said, “Your pirates cost 3 less, but not less than 1.” 3 less might even be strong, maybe 2 less.

[@GubbiGap]

I would make it 1 mana and remove Twinspell on the Druid spell I think - then you have a pretty powerful 1-drop or a 1 mana transform for later in the game

[@GubbiGap]

I think you remove Twinspell and make it 1 mana. This way you have to combo it with some Treant card to get a 1 mana 5/5 which is honestly pretty strong, but if you wanna push a Treant Druid, this could be what it needs to combo with Landscabing. And a 1 mana 2/2 is pushing a lille bit, but we've had a 1 mana 2/2 Beast in Druid before so I think a 1 mana Treant is fine.

[@MrLapma]

You can give crystal grow echo instead of twinspell. This way you can't coin it out in 2cnd turn. And you can pay 4 mana for 5/5, or if you have any other treant upgrade it. This way card is good addition for treant deck. It pushes theme of treants and is decent card on it's own.

[@dovakhiinplays9274]

6:20 keep it a 2 mana Twinspell , but it's not a choose one anymore , just print it as " Transforms a random Treant into a 5/5 Ancient . If you have no Treants on the board , summon a 2/2 Treant . "

[@6DarthSion9]

That spell could summon 2/2 treant with spell immunity, so still it would be transformed by battlecries or aoe spell, since we already have 3/2 spell immune.

[@Mojo391]

Balance on jug 2 should be a 7 mana 6/5 because it isn't like shuffling an extra mine in which would significantly increase the effectiveness of Dr boom. It would also increase the consistency of the mine draw so it would be a better effect. I suggest the stats to be like profit vel because it would be a closer effect.

[@ancient7716]

I fixed Crystal Growth: It is a common card so it should be mediocre. Make it 4 mana that reads: Twinspell choose one: Summon 2 2/2 Treants or transform one into a 5/5 Ancient with taunt.

[@Riganotza]

Then both options kind of suck though. You either pay one more mana for landscaping or 2 more mana for +1/+1 on Mark of The Wild

[@ancient7716]

If landscaping was a Twinspell, would it still cost 3? Or if mark of the wild was twinspell, would it cost 2? The answer is obviously no, so I think this card would be balanced this way.

[@kiki_con]

for the crystal growth: make it echo instead of twinspell, fixed :p

[@DragonrageBunker]

Bumbling burglar could be balanced by reading "Battlecry: Summon a 0/3 Alarm-o-Bot for your opponent at the end of your turn"

[@tarille1043]

Crystal Growth - Twinspell - 2 mana Choose One: Summon a 2/2 Treant for both players; or Transform one into a 5/5 Ancient. Druid has more synergy with Tokens so the "Equal" effect doesn't make it bad. The opponent can trade with your Treant to prevent Coin > T1 Tree > T2 Ancient. Using both Spells the same turn is effectively 4 mana 3/3 (Because you give your opponent 2/2 stats) but with flexibility (You can trade with the enemies 2/2)

[@N.Doughnut]

So its 3 Mana for the Effect basically and 1 for the Twinspell and flexibility

[@LegendRed01]

Crystal growth with keeper would give you a twinspell for both options?

[@rawovunlapin8201]

You could make crystal growth a 4 mana spell with choose twice. In that case I don’t think twinspell is needed anymore

[@rfactor1502]

Trump, one thing I think you overlooked with the Iron Juggernaut MKII is that because it transforms bombs into mines instead of shuffling a bomb into the deck for every bomb (which is pretty close in power yes), it does remove any bomb synergy cards the way transforming treants into ancients removes treant synergies. Now, there's (to my knowledge) only the one card that DOES have bomb synergies (the new Dr Boom legendary), so it's MOSTLY moot, but I could see it seeing print with maybe a tad more mana (7-8 maybe?) IF more bomb synergies are introduced. Otherwise, yeah, that's a 10 mana minion.

[@tomaszgruszka3845]

6:20 Maybe keep twinspell, but put a condition "if you control a treant", so the card would read "twinspell, if you control a Treant Choose One: summon another one; or Transform it into a 5/5 Ancient"

[@theSkyfisher]

I feel like the best way to balance Crystal Growth would be to drop the Twinspell tag and instead it would add the choice you picked back to your hand instead. Yeah dropping twinspell means it loses the set theme a bit but it would lock them into either getting the treeant or to upgrade to ancients. It would leave the problem of the nut draw of 2 of them with the coin but it would be more acceptable imo.

[@oldpoppywasop5038]

A way to fix Crystal Growth is to raise the mana cost to 4 and double the rewords (2 2X2 treants and 2 random transforms).

[@timothycoupland5832]

Balance it by making it 4 mana twinspell summon 2 2/2 treeants or turn a treeant into a 5/5 ancient. Normally 2 treeants is 3 mana value, but bundled into the or card increases cost. The higher cost also prevents crazy early tempo. It’s either a 4 mana 4/4 or an 8 mana 6/6, both of which are weaker but since it’s an or card that’s how it usually goes to compensate for flexibility, even moreso with one that can be played over a few turns

[@qarsiseer]

Crystal Growth fix; 4 mana Choose One - Summon two 2/2 Treants or transform your Treants into 5/5 Ancients If it’s problematic when its too small than just make it a bit bigger. This version may still be problematic with the 8 mana spell however, but it’s significantly less problematic since the opponent always gets a turn to answer your treants.

[@Menosh]

Eh. By turn 8, a couple 5/5s are a lot more managable; pretty much every form of removal in the game is accessible by then. Also enables the possibility of Landscaping into Crystal Growth for 2 5/5s on turn 7, but I think that's fine as a two-card combo that's also fairly late. I like it!

[@WiiTara]

I think Bumblin Burglar should stay an overstated Minion. The idea of dirty rat was either to get a strong battle cry minion out of your opponents hand OR get a combo piece from him and kill it imediatly (like a Malygos). Burglar has only the battle cry option, because the minion is summoned at the start of his turn so if its sth like Maly your oponent can use it and potentially protect it.

[@doomsdaygameboy29]

6:20 because it is a choose one card just make it so the twin spell part adds the action you choose not the full card. So if you summon a 2/2 you get a 2 mana summon a 2/2 and vice a versa for the ancient.

[@JUSTcauseTWO1]

For 'Crystal Growth' balance change - give them either life steal or rush and make it 3 mana

[@Yasswuh]

4 mana twinspell choose one summon 3 2/2 treants or upgrade your treants to 5/5 ancients. So turn 8 you can have 3 5/5s or turn 4 you can have 3 2/2s

[@Firephantom414]

You could make it so that the ancients are frozen to pull the whole "crystal" idea together

[@plebstrike8240]

At 6:25 It wouldnt be too terribly OP. In order for the 5/5 on turn two you both need to coin it out and pray ur opponent doesnt deal with a 1 mana 2/2. And then you get yet another turn to deal with the 5/5. Given how its kind of slow, I dont think it would be too OP, because it also removes said 2/2 from the board. I dont think its a "little" bit OP, it just feels competitive enough to actually be run. That being said, the second effect could be a buff with something along the lines of "Give your treants +2+2" or +1 +1. Which is admittedly going to make the card on a standalone pretty rough, but it will make it incredible for treant synergy.

Suggested change to Mark II: NEUTRAL LEGENDARY Transform all bombs in YOUR deck into mines that deal 10 damage, then shuffle them into your opponents deck. Yay for tech cards

[@rawovunlapin8201]

That seems like an overly punishing tech card and, if the specialist format wasn't a thing, something I'd highly discourage because of the outrageous swings it creates in one specific matchup. I know that hearthstone has had a history of these kinds of cards, but still...

[@hylianmage413]

Cool effect, but I think the flavor fails. The Iron Juggernaut Mk 1 was a Warrior Legendary, so I don't see why its next iteration would be available to all classes.

[@cocoleveranshelamalmo2899]

The problem with crystalgrowth is that you can summon treants in other ways, then you can get two 5/5 for 4 mana.

[@bluejay7058]

For Crystal Growth, just make the 2/2 not a treant. You either have summon two 2/2s, or transform an already played treant. But maybe that makes the ancient thing too weak? Just my two cents

[@mrplanet233]

On the Treeant card instead of twinspell use repeatable this turn i think the fact it can scale a little better into the late game is safe still

[@PastTimer]

Isn't "Back to the Basics" is just like the old custom card for Hunter called "Survival Pack" or something that had a similar effect?

[@IEatYourSandwiches]

who knows, people end up designing the same card over and over again completely unintentionally. there were like 5 different custom iterations of plot twist before the actual one got printed

[@uhhgoat2222]

What are your thoughts on putting extra text on a card that says "cannot be played before turn (x)" this would solve some design issues with OP early game.

[@Justkidding277]

6:20 It would be kind of boring (and potentially out of flavor for the set) but you could change the twinspell to echo and I think it would be balanced.

[@jirkakalecky2782]

Crystal Growth Twinspell Choose One - Summon a 2/2 Treant; or Transform one into a 5/5 It can never start in your opening hand (like opposite of Quests); (BTW can not start in opening hand even after mulligan)

[@jalalbokhari3707]

I have an easy fix to the treant spell and that is that it puts a 1 mana 2/2 treant card into your hand or turns a treant to a 5/5 instead of summoning the treant for free

[@firestarr5812]

The iron juggernaut doesn’t double bombs, it replaces them. It just replaces them. That should change the balance.

[@diabolicalgoldtoad9729]

Instead of summoning it, it can just go in you hand at first and then make the ancient a 3 5/5 that you can summon into your hand

[@sigh7082]

@Trump to balance the card when you cast it the twinspell should only apply to which mode you selected. So if you made a 2/2 treant you would be given that mode of the spell like Keeper Staladris

[@rawovunlapin8201]

So the card should read something like "(insert card text, excluding twinspell) They both have twinspell." ?

[@Kaanek91]

The Design from Patches is Beautiful

[@coolnesscube]

Double the mana and double the treant/ancient summons. So it could be an 8 mana summon two 5/5’s, which seems fair. Summoning 2 2/2 treants for 4 seems a tad weak, compared to landscaping, but it’s flexible.
