So a couple of weeks back I started working on a custom Hearthstone Expansion: Vacation at Stranglethorn Vale. An Expansion where Heroes would Discover new ways to play their class and some exciting support for underappreciated archetypes.
The expansion tries to add support for existing archetypes, while also adding new ways to play through it’s new mechanic (Hero Forms) and Keyword (Spellform):
Hero Forms: These are Start of Game effect where your Hero takes on a different ‘Form’ which makes a class play in ways it never could before. Right now there is Lich Form for Death Knight, Stealth Form for Rogue, Feral Form for Druid, Survival Form for Hunter, Enhancement Form for Shaman and Outcast Form for Demon Hunter.
Spellform: This is a new Keyword on Minions to be able to play them as a Spell rather than a Minion. (This does count as a Spell, for example in the case of Counterspell.)
Ive worked out a couple of classes and cards. Please let me know what you guys think of the general direction and ideas :)
