Warlock looks good, the deathrattle minions play well with Hellfire and PO, and Loatheb is essentially a 5 drop with a free ice block against anything that plays a finishing combo.

I've got some dirt on my shoulder, can you brush it off for me?

With Voidcaller and some of the other new cards I'm thinking a midrange Warlock that runs Felguard and Pit Lord could work pretty well. Probably not reliable enough without Sense Demons though.

Any low cost cards that are hard to remove are just OP when combo'd with the warlock hero power.

Sure Zoo can run the new cards too but I'm talking about a totally new deck type. A midrange Warlock would be built totally different from Zoo. Probably the only overlapping cards would be Flame Imps and Soulfires. The closest right now is something like Kolento's spell-based removal Warlock but with much better midrange minions.

Well I was able to beat the challenges of the first wing. The AI is pretty terrible but the insane hero powers do make things pretty tough. Needless to say choosing the right deck to counter each opponent is the key (except the class challenges, where you are stuck with a terrible deck and have to execute it).
