Sort of similar to enchantments in MTG you construct a building for X mana and it builds on the playfield (so it takes up a minion slot) obviously you'd have to include spells or battlecries etc to destroy buildings.

I can just picture these cool little models getting built on the playmat

Barracks : While this building stands each minion you play costs 1 less

Training grounds : While this building stands your minions have +1/+1

Wizards Tower : You spells cost 1 less

Mages guild : You have +2 spellpower

Haunted graveyard : whenever a creature dies put a 1/1 skeleton into play

and so on. Would it work? Could it be balanced?

But they have no attack or health so can't be attacked or removed with spells other than specialist spells so they'd stick around a lot longer than most minions.

Tavern Brawl did a similar thing a few weeks ago, so the mechanic exists. I'm sure it'll be added to the game eventually.

Where would you put the building on the battlefield? We are already very limited compared to MTG with 7 minions max.

I figured taking up a slot could be part of the balance or you could have a building specific slot so you could only have one at a time.

1 Building at a time? We only have hero power and weapon in the 1 slot. And it would'nt be like MTG enchantment.

No way I'm losing a minion sport for ''enchantment''.
