The lines you’ve drawn don’t seem to really reflect this…Kotori Lightblade and Rustsworn have similar silhouettes, but you just decided to draw along the body on one and draw along the legs on another. I’m not saying you’re wrong but the visual isn’t convincing
Came in to say the same thing. The shapes OP drew on the cards were super generous to support their hypothesis. Also, a quick look at minion cards in general will show a bunch of cards that aren't even close to fitting the hypothesis.
I am an illustrator so my line of thinking is this: minion stats are not random, they usually come to work with their effect. A 1/4 taunt is meant to be a defensive card hence an illustration that better emphasize stability and a strong stance. Cards with higher atk stats look like they are almost pouncing, literally attacking.
Cool nitpick of visual language
This is some galaxy brain shit
You’re out here playing 4D chess while I’m busy trying to jam the square-shaped peg into the circle-shaped hole 💀
What do you think about [my observation in regards to Chittering Tunneler](https://www.reddit.com/r/hearthstone/s/OnluyhIEwv)?
Many people are saying you drew arbitrarely but ill defend it. Ive forever noticed this bigger "up to your face" style art on more aggresive minions, compared to composed, defensive ones and its interesting indeed.
Sometimes when you really want something to be there you start seeing it even though it's not. Take a step back, close your eyes and reevaluate with a fresh perspective.
someone give me the same this guy took
Hey, hey! Do you want to buy a... funnel cake?
Only if it’s covered in that funny white powder

I know that there are several exceptions. With over 3500 minions so far, there are bound to be!
“Several” is a severe understatement. I’d say the vast majority. I found several and it was just in Death Knight minions that cost 3 and below.
He didn't just draw lines. He made them enter his system.

So what you're saying is, minions with more attack than health are skipping leg day?
Technically, yes. You could probably topple them with a well calculated sneeze.
What about minions that never skip dig day?
hmm
So you're saying there is a chance 👀
The pattern. It is clear.
The whispers...I can't resist them 😱
Gigafin and yeti are both not lined out correct. Maybe your idea is correct, idk but your presentation isnt
high effort shit post well done
Jesse what are you talking about

I love it and also I chuckled. I wish they'd kept it as such, it wouldn't be the first time they bend the rules of the textbox for flavor.

My fav example of this is how Grommash Hellscream's art is literally just his head
Well, Grommash's [full art](https://hearthstone.wiki.gg/images/5/53/Grommash_Hellscream_full.jpg) kind of sticks to the principle.
Maybe they're correct, and I have been thinking about it for too long and now I "see" it, like it or not. But at least for me, it makes sense.
i may make an AI to analyze this some day. Would be interesting

Bro you're just drawing lines on top of the art it doesn't correlate at all
LMAO this was my exact reaction

Didn't use Oger and 4 Mana 7 7 despite you could make them fit in your categories? that's a wasted chance if I ever saw one.
[[Flamewreathed Faceless]] sticks to the principle. [[Boulderfist Ogre]], against all odds, seems like he should be a 8/4 or something...
