Stop worrying, people. Blizzard knows what's up. Rockbiter will be nerfed (only target minions), and then it's all good.
Hopefully.
Do they really? We're talking about the people that at one point thought that releasing Dr. Boom, Shredder and the pre-nerf Undertaker were good ideas.
Until I see some neutral healing/decent neutral taunts, I'm gonna have to be doubt Blizzards ability to keep aggro decks in check.

Well, we can only hope that they've learned from their mistakes, I guess... What other choice we have, anyway?

Bitch about it until they actually present us with cards that clearly counter aggro.
Disagree highly. Paladin is losing their early game, which allowed Control and Midrange pally to actually be competitive. Paladin will never have a decent archetype unless they get something that allows them to survive to use their late game cards.
As for rogue, you're missing one key factor. There are two reasons why rogue sucks at the moment. A) Everyone has access to an incredible taunt minion in the form of Belcher and B) Everyone has access to great healing in the form of Healbot. Both of those things are going away and rogue is only losing Oil. Miracle rogue doesn't lose jack and Raptor rogue has access to more Deathrattles than the rest of the classes. It's entirely possible that Rogue will end up being one of the better classes in the game.
Shadow Word: Horror and the fact that we are losing Shrinkmeister makes me think that Priest will be getting some other mechanism to reduce an enemy minion's attack. Maybe "Battlecry: Set a minion's attack to 2 until the end of your turn"?
Calling it now, Herald Volazj will be way better than people think, and there will exist cards that synergize quite well with it. I'm predicting it will be the sleeper card, and people eventually start calling it OP and needing a nerf, the way they talk about Mysterious Challenger now.

Life before death. Strength before weakness. Journey before destination.
I find it hard to predict a whole meta, particularly before the nerfs and much of WotOG are announced.
However, I strongly feel that C'Thun decks will fail. When half of your deck is substandard cards just to get a HUGE payoff on turn 10 you are going to struggle to survive until turn 10 and, even if you do, you need to have drawn C'Thun.
Hallazeal will be very good although I'm not 100% convinced that he is good enough to force a Control Shaman archetype.
Aggro Shaman will be very strong (unless they nerf it) but is still unreliable.
Dragon Priest will be very strong. Hell, over the past three days I've been playing it with a 70% win rate and I'm only going to lose one Lightbomb and a couple of Dark Cultist, both of which can be replaced.
Hunter epic card will be: Animal Companions (10 Mana): Summon Misha, Leokk and Huffer.
No one will play it after the first week of the set being live.
Hey, you were pretty darn close to right! except the 8 mana cost makes it playable
Yeah, 8 cost makes it very viable I think.... I'll definitely try it in mid-range hunter. So much value.
Feel like this 'called it' was cheating since the art was floating around before this prediction was made. It was pretty easy to guess the sell, only question was the cost.

Handlock is going to be broken and wild is going to fail.
Callin' it:
Priest 6 Mana 5/5 Dragon - Resurrect a friendly dragon that died this game.
Shadow Word: Horror and the fact that we are losing Shrinkmeister makes me think that Priest will be getting some other mechanism to reduce an enemy minion's attack. Maybe "Battlecry: Set a minion's attack to 2 until the end of your turn"?

Kaladin's RoS Set Review
Join me at Out of Cards!
Poisoned Blade will still see no play ....

Mukla, Tyrant of the Vale will be must have in Mage Tempo Deck. (Imagine the synergy with Flamewaker and Archmage Antonidas
Hogger, Doom of Elwynn will be used successfully in Patron Warrior and might squeeze into some other decks.
Faceless Shambler will be included in some Handlock and Reno lists.
Scaled Nightmare will be included in Dragon Priest and it will be a top tier deck.
Renounce Darkness won't be that bad.
I returned to this game much like how a recovering alcoholic can relapse.
Calling it:
Custom cards :
CLASSES : Alchemist (CCC#5 | Phase V) | Chef (CCC#4)
EXPANSIONS : Year of the Scorpion (Year Comp)
Savage Roar is going to be nerved to "Give your beast minions and your hero 2+ attack this turn."
General Vezzax will be warrior legendary
Anub'arak and Rhonin will start to see more play when the meta slows down. Most likely in N'Zoth decks.
