If you've ever played League you'd know that Riot has been consistently awful with making competent balance decisions. There is absolutely nothing stopping them from continuing to do that in another game.
Data doesn't mean shit if the people interpreting it don't have a clue what to do.
I don't get the hatred for him. If he bothers you that much, just fucking run Ironbeak Owl. It fits the exact mana slot and leave the Rogue without ressources (they don't have Mana Cyclone, you know).
There are way more consistent blowout cards with far less counters (such as Mountain giant and Divine Spirit, which, big surprise, just got HoF'd). They already killed Preparation, what more do you want?
Subjugator feels really awkward on curve in all the ways cleric felt great. I admit I wasn't thinking of MC shenanigans so that might be a thing, but independently it just like an arena card more than constructed to me.
Conjurer is basically swashbuckler without any of rogue's thief synergies.
Natalie would be fantastic except I think the 8 mana is going to be cost-prohibitive.
Chaplain again looks like a fine arena card but too little impact for constructed.
To be clear: I hope I'm wrong and you're right. I would love to see priest to start supporting more board-centric value trading and investing in individual minions and less...whatever nonsense you want to call rez priest and combo priest. I'm just not seeing it.
Zoolock might like this, but it still seems a bit too costly. You're effectively playing a 3-mana Grim Rally. If you don't actually kill it immediately it is vulnerable to silence, meaning you just played a 3/4 that wiped your own board and you should probably surrender.
What also doesn't help is that Scarab Egg and [Hearthstone Card (Grim Rally rotate) Not Found] which makes this a lot less appealing. The only direct synergies right now are [Hearthstone Card (Sea Serpent Egg) Not Found] and EVIL Genius (and maybe Void Terror if you can go that slow).
Maybe Demon Hunter can do something with this, they have a bit of synergy with sacrificing their own minions.
Quest Hunter could also probably use this to accelerate their quest (but it's kind of slow).
Either way, if this is actually good, people will run Silence which would then make this terrible.
thats why i said the ranked flavour already existed. but u can bet that did this cause of how its a standard thing in all games even in like Overwatch, but mainly cause LoR also uses it. for years the bronze, silver etc exists but only now they implemented it? cmon
Twitch Chat will always be Rank 25 in my heart, but this system hopefully provides a bit more engagement each month (to get (back) to Legend), avoids experienced players matching up against newer players, and feels more rewarding. On paper, it's definitely more rewarding - more packs! More cards! But I'm talking about how hard it'll be (and I know it's not "hard", it just takes time, so let's say how much time it'll take) to get Legend.

2 mana 4/2 rush! This effect will be very easy to activate. Even at turn 3, this could be solid.

Does anyone know, how HoF'ing of basic cards works?
As Northshire Cleric has no dust value you dont get any dust, right?
If i own 2 normal and a golden copy, do i get 1 normal and 1 golden or 2 + 1?
If i level my priest to a degree, when i would have 2 golden Northshire Clerics, but after they get HoF'ed, do i get the missing cleric?

Probably not - it's the zoomed-in art from the current Illidan Stormrage card. though since nobody plays the card I doubt many would recognize it haha

Why would he be moved to HoF? He is not a problem, never was.
