With the modifications made to Priest, this is solidly two new classes.
Did you see all of the cost reductions? And even more importantly, the viable early drop minions? The cost-favorable board clears? Priest can go aggro now. Priest can go zoo. Priest can go nuts!
I am super hyped for the new class, but also, do we really want a new class? I guess we do, but, do we really? Will this just add to the overall cost of the game in a way that F2P players won't be able to keep up anymore? Will we get more gold/packs/dust to compensate for all of the new cards being added? Will Demon Hunter get cards from GvG, TgT and all of the other wild sets? And will players who have bought all of the adventures just get all of those cards for free? Will all of the wild cards be designed in a way that they would have been good in the old days of Hearthstone, but may be underwhelming now, or will they design the old cards with the same design philosophy with which they design cards now? Will we get 20 deck slots? What is the hero power? How many, if any, free Demon Hunter cards will we be getting? Will they give us free Demon Hunter cards from sets we have already bought packs from, or will we have to go back and buy a ton of old packs to collect all of the cards? Will packs include a larger quantity of cards to make them more consistent in compensation for adding a whole nother group of cards to the game?
Honestly, I am just in shock. I will have to wait a few days to sort out exactly how I feel about this.
*edit* Also, they did a good job on the priest set.
*second edit* I found the hero power right there on the top of the page, I am not sure I like it being 1 mana. I would much rather have a 2 mana hero power that gives your hero +2 attack instead.
I like this! Completely unexpected. I’m guessing we’ll get a slight UI overhaul to accommodate the additional class. This also opens possibilities of Monk being added, maybe an actual DK class too

This isn't just one new class.

As a longtime Priest player, this is insanity.
[Game] Card Treasure Hunt (The Resurrection Attempt)
Big-Time Racketeer & Small-Time Recruits?
Racketeer has a big smile and is a "big" (i.e. costly) minion with small stats. Recruiter brings out a bunch of "little ones".
Both are from MSoG.

I didn't even notice that before, that's brutal! :D I wonder if Blizz remembered that card either...

Knights of the Frozen Throne
This was a really neat expansion. Had a blast with it
Journey to Un'Goro
My worst luck with pack opening. 7 legendaries out of 112 packs :( The most packs I've ever bought.

I'm just worried the pay wall has just become bigger. With a new class means new legends and less likely you will get the legends you want from packs.
Whispers of the Old Gods
This was my most hyped expansion. It's also the most luck I've ever had with pack opening. 13 legendaries in 67 packs!

So now basically Power Word: Tentacles is going to be powercreeped by a priest basic card

A NEW CLASS??????
WHAT?????
It looks damn cool too.
Oh hey, they're also adding Demon Hunter.
Yet another first time F2P legend
Congrats! That's exciting. I never had the patience or dedication to hit it.

A new class is INSANE!!!
That's so exciting. What else is crazy and that we didn't actually see anything for the new expansion itself, just the name!
Wow. This reveal season is gonna be nutty.

Descent of Dragons
This expansion finally took me to 1,000 wins on most of the classes! Woohoo!

Galakrond, the Wretched

I wanna see Naxx Demon Hunter cards lol
Galakrond, the Tempest
Was insane until nerfed to a more reasonable power level
Galakrond, the Unspeakable
Strong effect, but hasn't really worked in decks thus far.
Galakrond, the Nightmare
Turns out this card helped take me to 1,000 wins on Rogue at last

Oh boy oh boy oh boy
Ashes of Outland is Hearthstone's Next Expansion - New Demon Hunter Class, Priest Getting Overhaul, See the Demon Hunter Cards
I can't believe they're adding a new class. This is insane.
Also, any ideas for what the Outcast keyword does?
