No, not "EXACTLY" the card they want. The card should still be balanced. Are you saying if I win a World Championship, I should be able to have something like Jaqen H'ghar printed without any power checking?

It sounds like you are assuming designers do not check for power level of champion designed cards. I don't doubt that there is a lot of back and forth in an attempt to fit the card into the game and in an attempt to balance the card. Obviously if a champ wants to create a card that says "You claim 15 power. Cannot be canceled." then FFG will tell them to go pound sand and to submit a different idea.

No, i'm not assuming that at all. I know the designers were part of the process. I also know the DC Meta has openly admitted in another thread to fudging the playtesting process to get this card printed as it is.

 Wait, what do you mean "fudging the playtest process?"

"A nation can survive its fools, even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within….for the traitor appears not to be a traitor…he rots the soul of a nation…he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist." - Cicero

wow, that is a fucking serious accusation that you need to back up with a link unless i can casually mention where you "openly admitted" to your hobby of cutting the tails off kittens in that same thread.

I hate kittens. And if I can find the link, i'll happily post it. Unfortunately, I do have a life and a job, so I don't have all day to spend data mining the forums for it. If anyone else knows where it is, please by all means help me out here. I know i'm not the only one that's said as much.

So you only had just enough time to throw out the accusation? Weak sauce.

I forget which Champion it was, but somebody asked Damon to make a Martell card for the son of Dagos Manwoody. 

*looks up character name…*

Damon: No, you cannot make a card named "Dickon Manwoody."
