Well they are nice card ideas, keep them up! I'll rename the thread now so we can enjoy posting our card ideas here, if you wish to create your own thread then that'll be cool as well.
I especially love Cerberus, he goes well with my Wolf cards!

Alright a quick review:
Valkyrie Theme - is soooo great, I just love it. We need more women fighting in the grounds anyway. =P
Storm Maiden - I suggest making 'Zap,Zap' to 'Zap: Two Targets'. The former uses Zap twice, and this would be problematic for a Valkyrie if it hits a Reflect unit twice. The latter uses Zap both at once, making it least safer for the Valkyrie. Besides, she's flying as well making her more squishy.
Brynhildr - Nice, but this makes her good for infantry decks only, lessening her flexibility.
Gathering of Souls - Interesting effect but the description is somewhat off from WS style.
Charger - Now this would be my favorite. An infantry deck will definitely need a Trampler, but she's got Command as well making her perfect. T5 seems to be too cheap for her, may I suggest making her T7? =P
Spearbearer - Same as charger, thuis valkyrie can at least pierce those Horsebows and Shield Riders.
Fallen - She may look overpowered, but I guess she'll last for some time only, she's a Demon card as well making her susceptible to Norag Hunters.

Haha ye you are mostly right but despite of that i should rather say although i have some ideas on my own i let the pictures guide me and form the abilities based on what i imagine seeing them ;D , and some cards were made powerfull on porpuse in order to discuss a bit their abilities and new forms of abilities , just advertising our work is not worth it , we need discussion and arguing in order to come up with something good . so lets see them review them a bit About the stormaiden maybe a Zap/Zap2 or chain zap 1 would fix her a bit , i made her flying cause she is floating and holding thunders so that more logical , she is still infantry so she would still take double damage from archers . i putted her 5 health in order to at least sustain a 2 dmg archer . About gathering yes its off ws ability form but the image was not so clear what it stated so i added it in text . About Brynhildr as a valkyrie theme she aids the melee so rush should be for infantry , rush 2x2 is very powerfull ,i use the artifact bat whistle that gives rush to beasts and i rather say it rocks. if i putted rush 2x2 humans imagine her in a theo squads where t7 theo has a 4 ready value > almost instant with rush , the field would be filled with dwarfs , and they are already too powerfull no need to boost em more  . And lastly i made it infantry cause i want to see more orc human combinations , humans don't have very good infantry but orcs do . Here is another card i made with rush 2x2 but i haven't posted it yet cause it is powerfull i tried to limit it by 3 units usage , but on 2,3,4 squad it would be deadly so this is why it needs at least to be limited as bryhildr like rush fiend  And last at the fallen i specifically posted fallen valkyrie before some other cards that use first strike in order to discuss the usage of the ability , i firstly placed first strike on some infantry assasins in order to be able to counterattack a bit and increase their viability . i am posting now the most extreme .     I think you recognize the 3rd card is yous  but we will come to it . First i want to discuss the the first strike ability , if it is worth , and if it was in artifact version , would it be deadly ? I think maybe ye but in the form i made it perhaps , perhaps a first strike 2 like retaliate 2 would be better (flat damage returned and not all damage recieved ) , first about the fallen valkyrie ,if she attacks cards with dmg 1 because of fear their damage would be zero after so there is no first strike , but if unit had a bigger damage than 1 she would return what she would take , decrased by 1 cause of fear ( immunity case is an exeption ) . what i really wonder is about the fear triggering, if she deals damage through counter will a second fear be activated  so a unit with 2 damge would has his damage reduced to 0 before landing damage cause of double fear , if you understand what i mean ? Personally i haven't tried using fear with the existing retaliate ability , so i don't know if my statement above has some basis . The next image has a transformation of your card blood hunter , i remember people saying it was too overpowered for a hero cause of drain , he would get healed with all the health of the units he killed , so i made a small change to it , but mine may be even deadlier based on the first strike mechanic and what i suspect . So if vampire royal assasin was attacked by a human , would she slay him/her before taking damage due to first strike- slayer combo , i don't possess any deadly pionard artifacts to see if retaliate on slayer can slay an enemy card through counter damage and not through direct damage . If those statements are true both blood hunter and vampire royal slayer with a Helm of Absorbtion could clear out an entire human squad on their own without dying ( including our beloved dwarfs ) . I had first strike on battle frenzy troll at first but changed my mind on last moment , first strike wouldn't be that extreme on it but frenzy is strong so i rather putted retaliate . |

First Strike seems to be a good idea, but can be overpowered given with the right artifacts and support units, but then again, there are other powerful abilities anyway. It's just that you're doubling the attack of a card with First Strike.
Oh, and you forget that Trolls never lose their Regenerate ability =P
EDIT: Added my other cards.

Hey lockas, look what I have here  New border. I'll share the PSD later. Comments on the border? I tried grayscale but it looks lacking, and so the bronze scale. Also, I can make the glossy look of the original WS borders, but scale really looks good for a dragon race =) |

Funny cards =D
Well, I'll be on it later. I'm thinking of making the aqua borders glossy. I just noticed though, that the unit type for the cards you make, the text, is placed slightly higher than normal.

I guess i accidentally moved it with the moving tool . it happened to me also with the attack number but i recentered it . Anyway here is an interesting new ability called wild suffle , if it was just suffling cards it wouldn't be that usefull so i added a chance of assasinate , it may be usefull on flaming decks where they can put burn to all the enemy units by suffling cards and also it can rearrange cards avoiding dangerous artifact-unit combinations    |

lockas, I believe it's Shuffle =P
Anyway, it's a great concept, but how should it interact with enemy artifacts? Will the equipped unit still retain its artifact or will the new lead unit take the artifact?

Damn silly me  Well i imagine it like the new first cards in the battlefield row to take the artifacts and there is also the chance one artifact to be destroyed , since artifact is also a card . Perhaps i should modify the discription of the card including the artifacts . |

Hmm Morrigan the phantom queen , nice pick of the name she is a goddess of irish mythology , i saw that name a couple days ago in devianart , well card has nice burst damage ( sneak attack ) and a bit altered survivability ( stealth nice power and can be told balanced ) , but after the first attack wouldn't she be a bit fragile for a hero? perhaps she should be a unit instead of hero  i like the card though .......oh you were asking for border ;D ye i love it very nice shading and nice color and the famous feature of dark elfs moon crescent |

First of all i really love your barrier and wolves they can make a good beast deck .
):
but we will come to it . First i want to discuss the the first strike ability , if it is worth , and if it was in artifact version , would it be deadly ?
so a unit with 2 damge would has his damage reduced to 0 before landing damage cause of double fear , if you understand what i mean ? Personally i haven't tried using fear with the existing retaliate ability , so i don't know if my statement above has some basis .
Well i imagine it like the new first cards in the battlefield row to take the artifacts and there is also the chance one artifact to be destroyed , since artifact is also a card . Perhaps i should modify the discription of the card including the artifacts .
i like the card though
