Usually they are playing as part of a Fireside Gathering. These allow players to access the new content, but only in casual mode (not for ranked play).
Who are they okaying against? Other streamers? How come? How does it work? The streamers are contacted for an early launch?
Just curious as to how it works.
They are "okaying" against other streamers. Marketing. They have temp private accounts with all cards on a private server. Yes, they're contacted early as they have to get their private account, are given the rules, and are told what times they can stream from these accounts..
just wondering how come some people are already playing Death Knight?

This particular one is from the theorycrafting session they had and streamers get special access to a different server where they have all the cards.
Then you do have the Fireside Gatherings where you have access to your own MLK cards (that you get from opening your MLK packs) and a mode with lifted card restrictions so you can use cards from different classes in one deck.
This isn’t a complaint.

I meant to type “playing”. I understand better now, thanks for the replies.
