Looks like custom expansions are the thing now, so I might as well throw my hat into the ring. Introducing my custom expansion!
New Mechanics
Conceal
When you play a spell with conceal, your opponent can’t see what you target with it. They see that the spell is played, they see the name of the spell, but your cursor is hidden when you select it from your action bar and select what to target with the spell.
Hopefully, conceal spells can add a new level of strategy to the game. You can use conceal targeting to out-manoeuvre the opponent or , on the opposite side, make plays that anticipate where the opponent might have hidden a conceal spell. If a minion or space targeted by a conceal spell is dispelled, the spell effect remains. However, if it is transformed, the conceal spell is destroyed.
Champions
Champions are a new card type based on Planeswalker cards from Magic the gathering. Each champion enters play with some amount of energy. Energy acts just like health for minions or generals, in that dealing damage to a champion will reduce its energy by that much. When a champion’s energy reaches zero, they are destroyed.
Once per turn, you may activate one ability per champion. These abilities either raise or lower energy. Champions can activate their abilities the turn they are played, but they cannot move on that turn. Champions can also move once per turn. Champions can more and activate their abilities in any order. Since champions are not minions, removal that targets minions does not affect them. Champions cannot attack or counterattack.
Cards
Lyonar
Beta Model
Common golem
3 mana 2/4
If a player ends their turn with their BBS unused and active, they draw a card
This guy really misses beta Duelyst
Axolotl Mechanic
Common minion
2 mana 1/4
When an enemy minion is healed, add a copy of it to your hand.
You can draw cards with this, but at the cost of healing your opponent’s minions. Decent card draw for healing decks
Bottled Vigor
Common spell
2 mana
Conceal: Target Minion gains +3/+3 the next time it is attacked.
The theme with Lyonar conceal cards is that they target friendly minions and give some sort of buff. This can force your opponent into awkward trades. This one in particular is pretty potent when your opponent is calculating damage.
Judgement
Common spell
4 mana
Deal 3 damage to all minions. Fully heal any that survive.
I miss the old tempest. Here’s a more expensive version that also benefits from Lyonar’s high health minions
Nimblewright
Rare golem
5 mana 3/5
Rush, Also deals damage to the character behind whatever this attacks.
Position-based Rush minion with synergy with attack buffs. A good mid-game removal for Lyonar, and some burst for Argeon.

4 mana 3/6
Your general and this minion cannot be affected by non-combat damage.
A tech card that hoses Songhai burn decks, Aggro Faie, and several other archetypes

If you summon a token, increase a minion’s attack, and restore health all during a single turn, summon a 5/5 golem with Forcefield.

Riposte
rare spell
1 mana
Conceal. Target minion takes no damage the next time it is attacked. Draw a card.
A flavorful card. You can parry your opponent’s minion and then strike them with impunity! Has especially nice synergy with Provoke minions, and Conceal can keep your opponent on edge.

Forcefield, Provoke
Dying wish: Summon three Puppet Soldier. Untargetable by spells.
Puppet Soldier
Puppet Soldier

Epic spell
5 mana
Draw Six spells that cost 1 or less mana. They gain Irreplaceable.
Irreplaceable can really bite you in the ass. An extremely powerful hand-refill tool, but one that can only be used effectively in very few decks. Sun sister, Arcanysts, and Araras prophet come to mind.
Sunsteel Foundry

5 mana 4 energy
+1 give a nearby minion Forcefield until it’s next attack
-2 give a nearby minion Forcefield and +2/+2
-6 From now on, All friendly minions have Forcefield

A sticky buff that encourages Lyonar’s “Death ball” style minion placement. You can somewhat control what this buffs next through clever positioning.
Cabala Seed
Legendary Champion
2 mana 2 energy
+0: double this champion’s energy
+0: gain Provoke until end of turn
-77: transform this into Peacekeeper
This champion can serve as an ever-growing provoke wall, and a win condition if you stall out the game enough. Transformed actively champions stay active, so peacekeeper essentially has rush.
Songhai
Marsh ranger
Common minion
2 mana 3/2
Backstab (1). Opening Gambit: Conceal: Choose a space. The next time an enemy moves or is summoned there, teleport behind them and attack them.
Heh. Nothing personal, kid. The conceal ability will not trigger if the space it would teleport to is already occupied
Scarlet Crane
Common minion
5 mana 2/3
Flying, Ranged, Opening Gambit: Summon a Scarlet Crane on a random space.
Old lantern fox was a fun card, but it did lead to broken combos. This minion serves a similar role, as a sticky buff platform.
Scroll Cache
Common spell
2 mana
Conceal. Draw two cards. Choose a tile. The first time an enemy moves or is summoned on that tile, they draw two cards.
A nice little draw spell. Unfortunately, if your opponent knows where you keep your tools, they too can raid your cache.
Ball lightning

4 mana
Deal 3 damage to a character. Deal 2 damage to all connected enemies.
A powerful boardclear with spell damage. Like Thunderhorn, your opponent can position around this.
Grand Saboteur
Rare minion

This is just a sticky body comparable to Dioltas and Allomancer.
Swinging Ambush
Rare spell
5 mana

Again, if the space the Gorehorn would be teleported to is already occupied, this won’t trigger.
Mask of Bellowing Mist
Rare artifact
4 mana
Only one attack can be made each turn.
This can completely shut down Fault and Ripper decks (unless they run artifact removal) by forcing them to only attack once per turn. However, mantra and spell combo decks might like this too much.
Blackwater Olm
Epic minion
5 mana 2/5
Rush, Backstab(1) After this backstabs, return this to your action bar at the end of your turn and change its cost to 1.
This is your main way of getting a lot of backstabs in for back-stab benefiting cards later on.

7 mana, 7/4
Frenzy, Opening Gambit: Your Bloodbound Spell is how Protean
Protean
Protean
Legendary Bloodbound Spell
X mana
This is a copy of the last non-Bloodbound spell that was cast.
A serpenti that gives you a ridiculously powerful BBS. Protean can let you double up on things like Eight gates, Spiral technique, Kensho Vortex, or the new Red wedding. Your opponent can stop you from copying things over 5 mana by playing a spell on their turn, though. Perhaps the best use of this card is with Knucklestorm, since you can spam it with Mentor and Cryptographer
Body replacement
Legendary spell
2 mana
Conceal: Choose a friendly character and a space. The next time that character is attacked, teleport it to that space and leave behind a 0/5 log with Provoke
Ninjas disappearing in a puff of smoke and leaving behind a log has been ingrained in pop culture. If the space the minion will be teleported to is already occupied, this spell will not trigger

Watch your opponent kill their own innocent minions as they try to find the traitor.

Epitaph
Rare artifact
2 mana
+2 attack. After this breaks, end the current player’s turn.
It just works. Ideally, you can force your opponent to make play awkwardly and attack you less during their turn, but this can also bite you in the ass, since it can skip your own turn.
Metempsychosis
Rare spell
3 mana
Conceal: Choose two minions. When one dies, transform the other into a copy of the one that died.
A very wacky utility card that can set up traps with conceal.
Cosmic Plasmid

Entropic End
Legendary spell
7 mana
Transform all spaces not occupied by a general into empty spaces.
Dying Wish? Nope. Untargetable by spells? Sorry. Tile effects? Better luck next time. Invulnerable? Get outta here! An expensive board-clear that makes up for its price by getting rid of absolutely everything, barring artifacts and general abilities
Adaptive Manipulator

Here’s a 2 drop that you definitely don’t regret re-summoning with your resurrection effects!
Abyssal Bureaucrat
Common minion
3 mana 4/3
Sentinel: opponent replaces a card.
Whenever your opponent replaces a card, add a copy of it to your action bar.
This card helps you spy on your opponent’s hand while offering card advantage. Your opponent probably won’t want to replace after you put this on the board, but it’s quite easy to be clumsy and misplay.
Disinter
Common spell
2 mana
Choose a space. Summon the last non-token minion that died on that space.
For example, if a healing mystic died on space (A) last turn, and this turn, a Young silithar died on space (A) and an Azure Herald dies on space (B), this will summon the Silithar if you target space (A) and the herald if you target space (B).
Blightseed
Common spell
1 mana
Conceal, Choose an enemy minion. At the end of each of your turns, make two friendly Shadow-Creep beside it.
Shadow Creep was the OG trap mechanic, so why not have a conceal card based off of it.
Death’s Advocate
Rare minion
1 mana 1/3
Deathwatch: The minion that died counts as a random friendly Abyssian minion that costs 2 more.
Fill your graveyard with OP demons instead of cheap wraithlings to resurrect later.

6 mana 8/4
Dying Wish: Summon a 1/1 Memory on its space.
Memory
Memory
token minion
1/1
Flying, Dying wish: Summon the last non-token minion that died on this space on this space.
This is a big boy you want to resurrect with all the new effects. It itself also has the ability to resurrect! Most of the time, the best option it to not move the memory and keep recurring this minion, but your opponent can just run away, so it might be worth it to use the memory to resurrect other stuff.
Empty the crypts
Rare spell
4 mana
Conceal: Choose an space. Add a copy of every minion that died on that space to your hand. Gain 2 life for each minion added this way.
This card gets stronger the later into the game you get, but it also gets harder to use, since you have to keep track of more deaths. This card only heals for each card added, so if you overdraw with it, you don’t get healed for extra.
Gravedigger’s shovel
Rare Artifact
5 mana
You may attack empty spaces to summon the last minion that died there on that space.
The releaser on steroids. Works the same way as Disinter.
Phantasmal Creditor

Brought to you by the suckit eggmar foundation.

-1: Summon a 1/1 copy of the last minion to die

Another resurrection effect, and the little 1/1s make excellent Maehv fuel. Most importantly, this is a 2 drop that’s not a minion, so it doesn’t not interfere with your resurrect effects.
Rhadamanthus
Legendary minion
4 mana 3/3
Deathwatch: Summon the minion that died on it’s owner’s starting row.
What if minions just never died? This is a symmetrical effect so get ready for some hijinks.
Apotheosis
Legendary spell
7 mana
Choose a friendly minion. At the end of each turn, if you don’t control a minion with the same name as that minion, summon a minion with that name.
Nothing can stop a minion that transcends death. No dispell, no transformation, not even return to hand effects. Even the new board-clear I made for Vetruvian cannot truly destroy a minion that has transcended.
Soul Contract
Legendary champion
9 mana 15 energy
-1 gain 1 health. Reactivate this champion
-2 steal a card from your opponent’s deck, Reactivate this champion
-4 Summon a husk. Reactivate this champion

A champion with no way to regain energy, the soul contract is meant as a flexible payoff card for Abyssian players who managed to survive to turn 9.
Magmar
Oviraptor
Common minion
1 mana 1/1
Opening Gambit: Destroy an egg to gain +1/+2 and Rebirth
A Magmar card that hoses eggmar. Might be good with Egg morph, but too conditional.
Techtonic Mauler

6 mana 5/5
Grow: +2/+2 When this grows, both players draw three cards.
A decent body that can reload your hand, but nothing special in constructed. Probably pack filler
Mud Slide

1 mana
Set your general’s attack to 2. Gain 3 health for each attack point removed this way
A simple way for Vaath not to die to Kha decks. Otherwise, it could be useful as a big burst of healing for cheap.
Allosaur

4 mana 4/1
Frenzy, Rebirth, Opening gambit: Restore 5 health to your general.
Combining both of Magmar’s iconic beta 4 drops, this is a Just an overall decent card

Y E E T
Protean Hydra
Epic Minion

A decent buff spell with synergy with self-damage effects.

A fairly versatile champion. The first two effects are good in all stages of the game, and the last ability can spiral out of control if left unchecked
The Apex

A card that must be comboed with cost reduction. When a stat exceeds 3*10^300 in Duelyst, it really does show up as ‘infinity.’
METEOR!!!
legendary spell
6 mana
Conceal. Choose a 2*2 area. At the start of your next turn, deal 8 damage to ALL characters in that area.
This lets you protect an area of the board, or lure the enemy into a trap. High bamboozle potential

+0: Transform into a 4/6 minion with Flying until end of turn
+0: Transform into a 4/6 minion with Forcefield until end of turn
+0: Transform into a 3/6 minion with Frenzy until end of turn
-3: Reactivate this champion. It’s next transformation is permanent and has +1/+1
Another Magmar aspect, this one is a champion rather than a general. Since champions come into play active, you essentially get to a flexible rush Minion that you can mould to suit your needs.
Vanar
Gleaming Pteropod
Common Vespyr
3 mana 3/1
Opening Gambit add three random irreplaceable walls to your action bar.
A simple card that generates card advantage without directly drawing cards. This minion fuels Vanar’s Swarm and Trial playstyles.
Phylliroe
Common Vespyr

A big threat against decks that have few damage sources over 3, like Fault Vetruvian, Aggro Vanar, Healing Lyonar, and Aggro Songhai.
Icicle Fall
Common Spell
4 mana
Conceal. Choose a 2*2 area. The first time an enemy moves or is summoned on each tile in this area, deal 4 damage to it and stun it.
Since each tile in the trapped area triggers independently, it becomes a bit like a game of reverse-Battleship scouting out which tiles are safe.

”I know the perfect spot!”

The big playoff card for playing stun. This card offers you tons of value for playing stuns and an immediate effect that can be decent in any deck.
Parlay
Rare spell
2 mana
Both generals are Immune until the end of your next turn. Draw a card.
Immune is Vanar’s way of staying alive to get to their monstrous late-game. This card buys you some time if you don’t mind not hitting your opponent’s in the face.
Horn of Winter
Rare artifact
5 mana
+3 attack. Infiltrate: Forcefield. If you end your turn with Forcefield intact, draw a Vespyr.

Opening Gambit: for every Friendly Vespyr that died this game, Summon a tentacle on a random tile.
Tentacle
Kraken Tentacle
Token minion
1 mana 4/3
Only one Kraken Tentacle can attack each turn.
A big payoff card to Vespyr decks, this guy is supposed to evoke a single massive monster with many parts, instead of a bunch of small guys. Note that multiple tentacles can move each turn, so even if they can’t attack, you can use the main to box the opponent.
Cat’s Cradle
Legendary spell
5 mana
Summon Bonechill Barriers that belong to neither player to fill the board.
Here’s your way of slowing the game down. Of course, our opponent might decide to bunker down in the ice as well. There’s a lot of ways this can go wrong for you, so use the effect wisely.

Ghost Wolves are fun, why not have more ways to summon them?
Incinemaw
Common minion
3 mana 3/4
Whenever you replace a card, destroy the card that is replaced instead of putting it back in your deck.
A lot of cards in Duelyst generate cheap or weak token cards that might clog up your deck if you replace them. This card stops that from happening. Also, if you happen to replace a card you know won’t be played in some matchup, you can remove it from your deck.
Perihelion
Common minion
5 mana 5/5
Opening Gambit: Your general gains Flying until end of turn
A very versatile effect that can help you escape or attack. I can see this being run in a variety of decks and being powerful in gauntlet.

Tech card that absolutely hoses Kujata, Abjudicator, and other ramp effects.

If this card in in your deck, you must build a deck with 10 additional cards.
Why the heck not?
Mythron Deleter
