I just wanted to throw my hat in and say I would like to see a monk class added to Hearthstone. I think it’d be cool and I’d like to see how Blizzard would create them. Chen Stormstout would obviously be the default Hero. Maybe with that update they can increase the number of cards per pack due to class inflation. I wanted to know if anyone else felt similarly and if it would revitalize their interest in the game. What do y’all think a Monk class should have in terms of unique mechanics, keywords, hero power(s), etc? Mists of Pandaria for Classic seems like a great opportunity to release it.

The game has been out for so long they no longer have new ideas for the existing classes.
Class identities lead to terrible expectations of repeated support for specific play styles. There is a reason players self-identified as “priest mains” expecting every expansion to support their play pattern of one card of theirs, trading to many of the opponent, and eventual resource starvation of the opponent.
You haven’t suggested any ideas for what the class would specialize in, or how it would be different from anything that has been explored already in all the existing ones.
Adding another class to the game would be supported as a short term revenue boost, to drive sales for bonuses. The game would then be saddled with another aimless class that needs more unique ideas.
My thoughts are they don’t need more classes, just because it’s based off WoW doesn’t mean it has to include everything from WoW. If anything they need less classes
