Let's look at the new legends and how they impact Sneed's and Confessor.
Tyrantus: This is one of the very best outcomes you could hope for. Getting a 12/12 that can't be targeted is massive! 10/10
King Mosh: I think the average for a legend is something like 5/6 or 6/5 so getting a 9/7 is quite good! 8.5/10
Ozruk: 5/5 taunt is decent. Slightly better than vanilla 5/6 or 6/5 because the taunt can defend Confessor or your face. 6/10
Kalimos, Primal Lord: Getting a 7/7 is quite good. Definitely above average. 7/10
Swamp King Dred: Sylvanas is a serious counter to this card but other than that getting a 9/9 is obviously amazing! 8/10
Hemet, Jungle Hunter: I'll take a 6/6. I believe it's slightly better than average so Hemet would be an OK outcome. 6/10
Sunkeeper Tarim: A 3/7 taunt is annoying for a lot of decks, although it's really bad against SW: Pain and Book Wyrm. But against a lot of decks I would rather get a 3/7 taunt than a 5/5 taunt, so I would rate this slightly higher than Ozruk. 6.5/10
Elise the Trailblazer: It's a little bit worse than average. Getting Elise is slightly disappointing. 5/10
Sherazin, Corpse Flower: A deck that is running Sneed's or Confessor is probably not going to be able to activate this guy. On top of that, a deck running Sneed's will probably play N'zoth, and having a dormant Flower on board takes up a minion spot, which is annoying. Combined with the 5/3 statline it's safe to say this is pretty bad. 3.5/10
Clutchmother Zavas: This is one of those awful results you sometimes get. It will be added to trash outcomes like Patches, Finley, Zerus and Hobart. 1.5/10
Pyros: While getting a 2/2 is very disappointing, at least you get some value out of this card. And if you happen to have N'zoth in your deck Pyros could actually be really helpful. Then again, it might work against you if you were looking to re-summon minions like Sludge Belcher and Deathlord to defend yourself. I would definitely say it's below average but it really depends on the situation. 4/10
I believe we have three more legendary minions to go so I'll update this post when they are revealed, but it looks like we are getting a slight buff to Sneed's and Confessor.
Reno decks will become better and better in Wild because so many cards make the "no-duplicates" downside irrelevant, and some Reno priests run Confessor.

Yes, some Reno Priests do. But after initial testing it was obvious that Reno Priest is worse in the meta then any other Reno deck, and worse then Dragon Priest too. And even in Reno Priest including of Confessor was arguable, it's very slow and unreliable card. And there are other options to inlude instead.
I'm sure Reno Priest will not become good deck for Wild in new expansion.
They're not going to have a particularly large impact because of the huge amount of Legendaries already in Wild. Overall this expansion will help those cards but I don't think they are going to see more play than they already do because of the unreliable nature of them. I know I'll still play Sneed's in Wild N'zoth decks and Confessor in just about every Priest deck I play anyway.

What do you guys think?
1. There are too many Legendaries already in order to these new cards could make any impact.
2. No one is playing Sneed or Confessor anyway.
