I don't think it looks awful, but I do think it looks like a lot of work (a.k.a. grinding). I understand what they are trying to do with appealing to those players that are tired of RNG, but I am not convinced that this is a sound decision from a business perspective. I think that they will get a lot of players initially but long term they will have to backtrack on how they monetize this thing to stay solvent.
It seems they are purposefully aiming at one of the main complaints in Hearthstone which is too much rng, that being said:
”
You can purchase individual cards in the shop - no pack RNG!
”
this is a risky move on their part. How else are they planning to make money? This incentivizes netdecking and discourages players from experimenting with new decks. In the long run it may cause the game to fail economically.
It will be interesting to see how much more of this Blizzard will endure before they say something. I think if players rather than casters start pulling out of tournaments that will be it.
The Warrior, Warlock, and Mage are the best-looking to me.
I've only unlocked Paladin, Shaman, and Druid. RIP.
I think Mage has been the most chosen as favorite and I like it too. Personally I also like the Paladin and Shaman ones. The Warrior one creeps me out, I wouldn't want to play with it starring at me all the time (I'm talking about the big eye on the shoulder).
Engaging in any act that, in Blizzard’s sole discretion, brings you into public disrepute, offends a portion or group of the public, or otherwise damages Blizzard image will result in removal from Grandmasters

So... should Blizzard get banned from Grandmaster tournaments according to it's own rules?

I... wow...that sounds beyond broken.
Thanks? That doesn't clarify anything, is that a card that was offered in the last brawl? I played it three times but never saw it.
What is this BFF everyone keeps mentioning?

No Mage love? *snif*
I was hoping some mad deck with Flamewaker to use with the new Jaina portrait.

The last paragraph is just so well put. Hopefully people have the attention span to read through to the end and follow that advice.

Honestly, I don't see any card in the set that would work with Zephrys except maybe Lightbomb in some very specific cases.
