Recipes? You don't even make references anymore, just a card game version of DOTA.
The items were already pushing it. And the recipe in the original DOTA is due to script restrictions. Every item and their mother has recipes there, and DOTA 2 rid of them for good reason. Case in point, Sange and Yasha are twin swords, whose powers combine when brought together, etcetera, the standard deal. They become Sange and Yasha when you wield them each in one hand. AND they are not combinations from a DIY kit of minor trinkets, but a type of magic item inaccessible to the common man. They are a rarity by definition. DOTA heroes swim in them since they are just that, heroes. Their merchants are preternatural and powerful entities themselves.

Make the Sange Card and Yasha card uncommons, cost less, the combined one Rare, and give them the effect to combine when one or the other is played. You purchase and benefit from one or the other first when you buy on curve in the game, more authentic when you do as such.

Anyone else wants to see Sange & Yasha as a rare and Yasha and Sange as uncommons?

No one else 'wants' to see DOTA-based cards by the bulk but you, thus the question is moot. Had anyone wanted the sort, you wouldn't be the only one who spends hours on end to translate the game into another game. In fact, no one wants to see ANY of the specific concepts but the creator until the creation catches someone else's eye. We hope other people, most of everyone, the Arcomage staff, will take interest and the card will be implemented. Don't announce the chance to comment as an opportunity to an empty room. We don't offer some fortunate chance. We are the ones who are given a chance to appeal at all. Most games don't implement a suggestion box, let alone as a main, bug free feature accessible from the main page.

I expect some people would enjoy a few, or would enjoy the cards for different reasons as antichroust does. You alone have an odd, inexplicable fetish for the franchise, and you wish for people to share in your pleasure. Which is fine, but don't expect anything more.

Not even I am interested. I don't want any of your cards. I have taken a moderate notice of some of them. I just try to make the card workable and not out of place, in the context of what you wish to accomplish. Features are made for a reason, with consideration given to common sense, sources and the game mechanics, not a diplomatic vote.

I'm with Zaton on this one but haven't found the right place to express it. Making one, subtle reference to another work (White Lotus, Alastor, etc.) is cool because the player either gets it or doesn't, and no one gets a Cease and Desist order from copyright holders. However, suggesting piles of card concepts that blatantly use names and imagery from other (ofttimes very similar) games is asking to have the site shut down at worst and scrolling good considerations off the first page of Concepts at best.

I think that many of my cards could make it to the game and have good value to it with a litle modifications and i find it odd that you dont want any of 120+ cards i made i mean im not that bad but ofcourse i dont expect that most of my cards would make it to the game infact none of them made it so far which is quite heartbreaking but now i see that i dont even get any appreciation for the work i do which is as well quite heartbreaking

Appreciation you are given plenty. We appreciate the effort to the extent to tell you in long, considerate posts your effort is misplaced. DPsycho explained in no uncertain terms we cannot have DOTA cards by the bulk, and I explained in no uncertain terms even had we been able to, no one would wish to have as many. We are the people you make the cards for. We are the ones who decide what we'd have in the game and what not.

Our respect amounts to tell you you make a mistake. Had you not been as dedicated as you are, we'd have not said anything. I would also, (just for myself, can't speak for others) feel baffled we discuss lack of respect towards a person who can't bother with a chatroom's expected level of grammar and coherence in forum posts, let alone the cards you allege to work hard on.

As for the implementation, yes, you can't expect all your cards will be implemented in the future. But do not pretend for a moment you wouldn't WISH all of them to be implemented, should such be possible. You wouldn't make a card with the explicit intent to NOT be paid heed to. Even when you take the dump and throw them at the wall by the dozens to see what sticks, every card we make carries with them the hope you will see them in the game, one day.

Every card you make, however, more than one hundred in the short time you've been active here, not given the amount of thought to have the proper card structure, or grammar, each of which would take a minute each, and the majority of them ripped out of another game series, their statistics are a loose translation of the mechanics of another game, their card pictures are from said game, not even fanart, and you tell US we don't appreciate YOU, well, dear, you are given the exact amount of appreciation you can ever hope to receive for ill-written, ill-thought-out content from a person who holds no respect for the actual owner of the content. Ill-written, since, well, look at them, and ill-thought-out since they break convention, and, you know, the law.

You flat-out rip DOTA off, and can't even do the infringement right. All you will receive is criticism of your decision at best, and you should be thankful we bother to at this point. When you say we should give your cards a chance, you ask the staff to assist you in crime, in essence. They are required, by law, to tell you no, and I'll go out on a limb here and say they wouldn't say yes otherwise anyway.

We, grown adults, have to tell you, another grown adult(I hope), to not commit blatant copyright infringements. That's not disrespect, that's an honest warning before you are visited by an army of lawyers who wish to sue a little guy as an example to others. Take the kindness to heart and stop before you or the game suffers.

Fine i will not make DotA themed cards anymore but we dont have to have DotA cards by the bulk i have made plenty so people could pick the ones they like to see in the game if not for the DotA cards i sure hope atleast one of my others cards will make it to the game ....hopefully

And what do you mean by saying that they are ill-writen is my grammar bad or are the cards out of balance?

Oh, grammar. Quite definite, only grammar. You seem to have a good idea of what new card is balanced, statistic-wise. Better than me, I might even say.
