Making this thread just to give people some useful info when the expansion starts tomorrow. The top 2 classes will be what it is almost now, with Demon Hunter and Warlock being the top 2. They won this expansion as far as Arena cards go.
Making this reply to give people some useful info that OP is not an Oracle and is simply just talking out of his ass.
Stating an opinion is one thing, but speaking so brazenly about your opinion as fact is far from useful and quite arrogant of you.
Not exactly. Been playing since beta and have almost 18,000 Arena wins, also i have made the top leader board basically every month. Don't confuse arrogance for confidence.

Sis his sig not give that away? factoring in all the stuff swapping I highly doubt 4 of the top 5 classes will not change......
Warrior gets nothing this expansion besides that broken 4 drop pirate. Paladin and Shaman will get huge boosts from this expansion and Whisper of the old gods. Warrior will probably drop to the bottom 5. Warlock and Demon Hunter will be OP Tier.

Like arena has always shown since beta trash shines
I've just played three runs of Demon Hunter, and I don't understand how it ranks so highly. I've got 2-4-1 wins.
My average win over the last five years is 4.79 (according to my HearthArena stats). I have plenty of 12-win runs recorded on this site. That is above average, although I am obviously not a genius player.
My analysis is that value is winning games in this Arena meta, not aggro or tempo. Most classes can easily deal with low-health minions, and DH's minions are all low-health. DH cannot generate sufficient value to compete in the late game, and it can't produce enough damage to kill in the mid-game. It is incredibly common for decks to drop large taunt minions every round starting at round seven. Demon Hunter does not have the tools in its class to deal with unending high-health minions, or the refill to deal with unending board clears, and that is what I'm encountering.
In my last draft I took every scrap of card draw available to me, and I still couldn't compete on cards against my opponents. My last Mage opponent in my last run cast three board clears while also generating six spells into her hand.
Card generation, high-health minions, removal: that is what's working, not spewing out a bunch of 2-3 health minions and a couple of weapons.
I don't know man .... I play different classes all the time and almost EVERY...SINGLE....TIME!!!! I lose a game... it's against a priest. Not early on in the rounds but in rounds 6 and up ... I't always to a crazy overpowered Priest. I feel like they get an AMAZING draft or crap.
But yeah.. demon hunters are also extremly effective (see fucking annoying) bashing your face over and over and wining with their health being like down to 3 from smashing their face into everything.
DarkArchon .. I'd be curious to what your thoughts are on top classes since you play a lot of arena.
Also, your name reminds me of a Commodore 64 game called Archon :)

Paladin and Shaman will also be top 5.

No it doesn't lol.
Demon Hunter and Warlock are currently the top 2 by far just like i said.

So what would you say is the tier list currently? Just played a warrior run because hsreplay said it was top 3, and I went 1-3.
Maybe I wasn't lucky with the draft?
