Agreed @Jadefire. Baron Blazerain ultimately ended up being a win condition similar to Craterhoof Behemoth or Finale of Devastation, where it's meant to enable a big play as opposed to winning by itself.
Nice one @WarriorCatInAhat. If you do choose another duel to participate in, you may want to claim it in the discussion so someone else doesn't take it before you finish your card in progress.

@SPyBondPlays You can choose a duel from the above list of duels with an available [Cardsmith] slot and comment here to claim it. Once you finish one, you can go back for another at your own pace.
@jpastor I've been stockpiling deadline favourites for several deadlines now, I think it's time I spend them. I won't make you go through my collection to find 30+ cards, I'll spread them out to cards I've favor.
Firstly, three favourites will go to @CrimsonFox for winning our duel. The rest can be found here:
@CrimsonFox You can submit specific cards that you want the favourites placed on. I usually just ask the person to put them on whichever cards of mine they like and provide them with a link to my card collection.
I think your Baloth was overall more playable as a standalone card, it can be used with Mutate but it doesn't have to be. It's just a solid, well-costed creature with a bunch of relevant abilities. My Baloth may be more flashy but it's also a "build around me" card that has minimal usefulness outside of a tribal Beast deck. That's what I'd guess set them apart.

It would help if you could post the name of the duel your entry is for. That way I can easily find it
