@Sherman1986; the Southpark comic was definitely worth a chuckle. :P
I don't blame a lot of people for holding off on pre-orders until they can see the cards, I did the same after ONiK since I was burnt out on the Midrange Shaman meta and didn't see a lot of ways they were coming back from that before rotation. Then they released a million board clears and I felt a little bit better, and the theme seemed interesting enough that I knew I'd get my $50 in entertainment. By all means this meta was polarizing so people should definitely wait to order/not order based on what they're seeing.
Personally I think this set had a ton of great things. A bunch of bad things too, but more good than bad; I certainly had enough fun with it to say that it really didn't sour my perception of the next set. I'll be pre-ordering Un'Goro because Dinosaurs are amazing and post-rotation metas are my favorite to build in.

they added the option this early so they wouldn't need to have 2 patches (balance patch and preorder patch)
Vvreeeew.
All these whiners talking about how Blizzard has "failed them". I've found plenty of fun decks each and every expansion and adventure, and many of the cards have been interesting and fun to play with. As a rogue, I love Shadowcaster and Luckydo Buccaneer even though they're cards that next to nobody plays and I'm sure people whine about how crap they are. I love the Burgle decks as well as they're more interesting than miracle yet again.

I pre-ordered because I don't let random people on the internet dictate what my opinions are. I enjoy the game, and I think it is going in a good direction, so I threw $50 at blizzard. Maybe I want to reward them for their awesome community engagement recently, or all of the year of the mammoth changes. Maybe Brode's rap was just so awesome that I had to pre-order. Either way, it's my money, and it is my right to decide how it should be spent.
I also don't think of card sets as groups of products that I need to ascertain the value of. I want to continue playing hearthstone, and new cards will see play. What I want to buy is the experience of experimenting with new cards and decks without worrying about what is worth spending dust on. I can generally accomplish this with a new set by opening about 100 packs, so 50 pre-order and 50 from saved gold.
I'm sure a ton of people have already. If OP doesn't think it's a good idea, there is no gun to the head to buy the thing.
Free to try and find a game, dealing cards for sorrow, cards for pain.

One thing to take into consideration is that players who are in the Standard format are going to be required to have the cards they need from this new set, not that I'm disagreeing about the pre order but just a thought.
I mean 3600 Dust is a lot. Despite having, you know, 60k of dust, Right Amaz? :)
