Since the DKs have rotated out, let's reflect on the ones we hated, loved, and were dissapointed by the most.
Loved: Thrall, Deathseer I love the evolve mechanic and Thrall rewards keeping a board alive and the RNG is fun rather than frustrating.
Hated:Frost Lich JainaBasically just a way for Mages to win control matches through constant lifesteal and the hero power made having a board with any low health minions a serious detriment.
Dissapointed: Scourgelord GarroshThe hero power is basically a whirlwind for 2 mana and although the weapon was decent in some matches it is simply not enough for warrior to seriously have staying power.
my favorite is probably Malfurion the Pestilent. he did not feel like a game breaking, super op card that turned the tables the moment he came into play. and he did not make a deck viable. he felt fair, and beatable.
my least favorite is Shadowreaper Anduin. this card was super OP and broken. and the worst part is, the combo was super obvious. everyone who saw shadow reaper thought of combining it with raza. I have no idea how this got past play testing. but it did, and it made the worst meta I have ever seen.
I disappointed about Thrall, Deathseer. I love shaman so much, and I really wanted to use this guy, but he is kinda bad. at least I have Hagatha the Witch.
hated (still do): Bloodreaver Gul'dan: the card is just insanely powerful, since it can resurrect other insanely powerful cards (Mal'Ganis above all) + heal.
disappointed: Thrall, Deathseer: I expected a strong Frost Shaman card for the DK Shaman, not an evolve theme masked with a cool rune icon.

Rejoice, for even in death, you have become children of Thanos.
loved: Malfurion the Pestilent: probably the only balanced DK card of the lot.
hated (still do): Bloodreaver Gul'dan: the card is just insanely powerful, since it can resurrect other insanely powerful cards (Mal'Ganis above all) + heal.
disappointed: Thrall, Deathseer: I expected a strong Frost Shaman card for the DK Shaman, not an evolve theme masked with a cool rune icon.
Love: Bloodreaver Gul'dan. Resummoning demons, heal + damage hero power.
Hate: Shadowreaper Anduin. Once played, he only takes damage into your face with his heropower. Don't really love him :-(
Disappointed: Either Scourgelord Garrosh or Thrall, Deathseer - don't really know, which disappoints me more.
