What is your all time favorite and hateful card from each class?
It can be a minion or it can be a spell for both sides. There's no need to write the reason (you're welcome to share though). If you love or hate 2 cards equal from a class equally, you can include them both. This is preferably only for class cards.
So, here's my all time favorite/hateful cards for each class:
Druid: Love Wild Growth/Hate Druid of the Claw -I mostly play aggro/Midrange decks (not the brainless ones though ;p) so WG gives me lot of space to start developing my stuff, both as a Druid opponent or as a Druid myself. DotC is annoying when I'm playing against a Druid, and when I play as a Druid, they always come out of curve.
Hunter: Love Bear Trap/Hate (s)Kill Command -The Bear Trap has a really interesting concept, summoning a minion after X thing happened.. I LOVE THE CONCEPT! :p, about the KC... Do I really need to say why? Extra: Also hate Unleash the Hounds, because just like Patron Warrior used to do, it punishes you for playing minions, and that's really stupid.
Mage: Love Rhonin/Hate Mirror Entity -Rhon. has an awesome animation and balanced stats, it's cool to see him. ME just places you in a hard position even if you have good cards in your hand, So it's kinda boring to play against one.
Paladin: Love Eadric the Pure/ Hate Equality -While EtP doesn't see much constructed play, in Arena he's quite awesome to see. Equality is just a anti-fun card imo.
Priest: Love Prophet Velen/Hate Velen's Chosen -I love to see some combos, honestly, so that's why PV is kinda one card I like to see. VC is such a big buff I kinda get salty whenever my opponent uses it
Rogue: Love Preparation/Hate Blade Flurry -Love the concept of using cards to "boost" other cards, and hate the insane burst that Blade Flurry can do (on your board, I like combos in genral)
Druid: Love Dark Wispers; it's such a weird, silly card. You haven't lived until you've lived the Dark Wispers + Echoing Ooze dream! If you go for the Wisps, you get a great animation, too. Hate Force of Nature probably twice as much as any other card on this list. It has single-handedly made druid (which has so much fun, weird stuff to offer) the most boring, predictable garbage class in the game.
Hunter: Love Ball of Spiders. Such value! Such wacky RNG! Two copies of The Beast and a Silverback Patriarch? Sounds fun! Hate Freezing Trap, which is one of those cards that feels like it's always great for my opponent but terrible for me. Oh, my Mad Scientist spit out a Freezing Trap against a board of 1/1s? Cool.
Mage: Love Flamewaker. "I SERVE THE FIRELORD!" You sure do, li'l buddy. Pew pew pew! Hate Frost Nova, one of those cards where you see it and you're like "Oh. This game is going to take half an hour and whether I win or lose will basically just come down to how good my opponent's draws are. I may as well not even be here watching him play solitaire."
Paladin: Love Equality. I played a lot of paladin (my first class to 60, my first golden hero) back when paladin was considered terrible, and it was always immensely satisfying to blow up a handlock's whole board or whatever. Victory for the little guy! Hate Mysterious Challenger because now my beloved Uther presides over the most OP deck since Undertaker hunter, a steaming pile of trash that requires so little skill that bots can play it to legend.
Priest: Love Prophet Velen. OTK priest forever. Hate Cabal Shadow Priest, another card that totally screws you when you're playing against it but always just seems to clunk up your hand when you're trying to use it.
Rogue: Love Burgle. So much. Would I like two Tirion Fordrings? I sure would, thanks! I do not understand how anybody could hate any rogue cards. Rogue is the best. Even garbage like Headcrack and Poisoned Blade is hilarious and amazing under the right circumstances (try Poisoned Blade in this week's brawl if you still have a chance).
Shaman: Love Fire Elemental. I drafted six in arena once, and you better believe I went 12 wins. Hate Earth Elemental. Seems so good! So big, so strong! It's a trap. And yet if anybody plays it against you, you are guaranteed not to have any removal in hand.
Warlock: LoveVoid Terror, one of the most entertaining cards in the whole game. The first deck that ever got me to legend was basically just "feed shit to Void Terror and win" (Nerubian Egg, Power Overwhelming, Sylvanas Windrunner, etc. etc.). Hate Felguard because I once got one from Unstable Portal on turn 2 against a face hunter. I seriously think it's the worst thing that has ever happened to me in this game.
Warrior: Love Axe Flinger. Your time will come, friend. Hate Brawl, because, ugh. Brawl. It's the worst.
Really enjoyed that. Thank you for including an explanation! I did try poisoned blade. In fact rogue was the only class I was playing in this week's brawl.

Druid: Love Mech Bear Cat / Hate Claw
Hunter: Love Steamwheedle Sniper / Hate Kill Command
Mage: Love Spellslinger / Hate Duplicate
Paladin: Love Scarlet Purifier (Don't judge me, I can feel you judging me) / Hate Eye for an Eye
Priest: (this one was hard for me) Love Mind Games / Hate Spawn of Shadows (There isn't really a priest card I dislike, this is my least favorite.)
Rogue: Love Cutpurse / Hate Edwin Van Cleef
Shaman: Love Tuskarr Totemic / Hate The Mistcaller
Warlock: Love Dreadsteed/ Hate Wrathguard
Warrior: Love Sparring Partner / Hate Armor Smith
I returned to this game much like how a recovering alcoholic can relapse.
Yeah, priest was hard for me too. I have to ask though. Why do you hate Eye for an Eye? You can easily play around it.

Warlock: Love Dreadsteed/Hate Power Overwhelming -Not just Dreadsteed is an awesome fun card, but the flavor text... Crescendo <3. Don't like the PO due to the Nerubian Egg synergy.
Warrior: Love Shieldmaiden/Hate Execute -5/5 and 5 Armor for 6 mana? Count me in! But that 1 mana removal is kinda stupid in my opinion.
In Rexxar we trust
Because it is the dumbest secret ever, most of my "hates" aren't cards I dislike playing against, they are cards that I don't like existing.
I returned to this game much like how a recovering alcoholic can relapse.
