No, it doesn't.
Uh oh...
@Bellycuss - Needler Grunt is very nice, and though not as flavorful, it still is a clear representation of the card. The issue is not that, but of a very small balance issue. As a 1/2 with the machine gun ability, even with a cowardice drawback, and though we can still see that it is mostly only possible to be used late game, it's hybrid boost allows it to be used in more than 1 type of deck, which is its biggest advantage. Score: 7.5
@DankSoulsRager - To put it short, just WAY TOO OVERPOWERED, and considering your time here, you probably already know why, so I won't be explaining it. Score: 5.5
@Faiths_Guide - Of course, you always make something good. I'm always trying to find something against one of your cards, but it doesn't seem to work too well. Only thing I could say is it's a bit bland. Oh well. Score: 8.25
@Sanjaya666 - For someone with no physical cards, you have a very beautiful card here. I would say it's really good, and the art is amazing, except the mana cost is 2 colorless too high. I'm assuming it's a typo, but I can only take what there is. Sorry. Score: 7.5
@GIVYUNVMe - Masked Grunt unfortunately has many, actually too many problems. From a flavor standpoint, it not only does not represent the grunt well, it's flavor text and abilities don't work, especially the needler artifact. For your information, the needler is a gun, not a bomb. Power wise, it is way to weak. It can easily be blocked and burned, and the artifact is practically useless. Score: 4
Poisonous Thallid is also way too weak, worth literally 0 mana. Score: 3
Sugar Babies has really weird formatting, but the card is still nice. Score: 7
Silver Plastine's abilities don't even work together. I can't seem to understand it. Score: 4
@Rednaxela - Undergrowth Scurrier is a really nice card, that has a 3 step use. It can attack for 2 damage, then block for unlimited damage, then be sacrificed. Nice card. Score: 8
Norse Dragon Hunter is a really beautiful card. It's balanced, and has amazing flavor. I can't say much about it. Score: 8.5
Mailicious Spikelump was another very good card. Flavor isn't as great as before, but with such a hard topic, you did make a very amazing card. Score is only 8.25, but relative to the topic, I could give it a 9... But I must be fair
Spotted Leaf Salamander is a nice card, but kind of bland. I can't say much. Score: 7.5
Nectar Dragon is really cool, especially the art, but the power level is a bit high. 4 life? Seems a bit high for me for a creature with flying. Score: 7.5
@Awticon - The art is amazing and the cards are too. Since most of them are similar, I'll only mention 2, your 2 best.
Aurumon Chief is your best of these cards. It is very simple, yet possesses a great ability. Score: 8.5
Guarding Aurumon is also nice, with a cool ability, yet it does not represent the creature type that well. I'll give it a 7.5
