oh boy warlock gaining 3/2 bodies for playing already really good cards, can't wait--
I swear they don't playtest at all.

Warrior is bomb. Bomb is everywhere. Lucky that they removed Rise of Shadows set from the meta or else it would become insufferable.
And uh, Bow of the Beast is a.... carrot? what?

Magnetic Mines is gonna be bad, but the upgrading treasure card is decent. Bruising/Ping is just too good.
But seriously, 3/2 imps for playing Soul Frags (which are already meta for warlock) is busted.

Doesn't look these new hero powers can beat current T1(Outcast DH, Discard Warlock and DR Hunter)
So on 6+ wins you are going to face the same decks. Shaman and rouge probably will be a bit better but paladin and priest are still going to be worst
