Hot take: "Choose One" is too interesting as a keyword and has too much potential design-wise to be class-restricted to a single class.
Choose One is such a fundamental mechanic that not being able to have multiple choices on a card outside of Druids is missed potential. Rogues can somewhat bypass that class restrictions by having Combo as a semi-Choose One alternative, but I feel like 'Choose One' (and Discover) effects will turn out as the "Everything's Kicker" of Hearthstone.
I wouldn't be surprised to learn that many flexible and interesting keyword ideas Blizzard had were scrapped simply due to being too similar to Choose One.
Yes, class identity is important and it certainly makes Druids more unique. It should always be the class that synergies most with it, but I hope to someday see more Choose One effects for other classes as well.
Either as Choose One or as another keyword that works very similar to it.
Edit (copied from the comments):
This thread has two takes:
1. The current way is too restricting as it prevents similar effects to exist on other classes without massive workarounds. It's limiting.
For example, the Harmonic cards from the recent Festival expansion were basically Choose One cards but clunky to play. They work but required significant workaround in how they play and feel.
-2. It's an interesting, flexible and fun mechanic that's too fundamental to not also use for other classes as well. I'd like to also tinker with it outside of Druid.

Can we expect any new halloween hero skins and when they're coming (3D?)
I've always liked halloween themed skins so I was wondering when can we expect any halloween skins coming.
Also if we get new 3d portrait skin, what hero can we expect to get it?

Is there a bug with Suspicious Alchemist?
I've played several games recently where I played Suspicious Alchemist on the first turn, and then my opponent wastes their own first turn by never selecting a card or making any other play.

Underwhelming First Time Legend.
I wish this post was more joyful. Im really happy that I hit legend for the first time dont get me wrong, but it happened before the big ban wave and 12 out of 16 matches were all even shaman bots and the other 4 were actual people (i think as they as some cool ass decks that wooped me) all I had to do was play anything with Taunts or Odyn Warrior. I didn't even have to try.
​
However, now that I am in legend and a good chunk of the bots have been showing less and less, now im back to getting my butt kicked 9/10 times! (not a complaint its fun to see the weirdness)

Its so fun watching a druid in one turn draw and play 20 cards, gain 20 armor, be at double your mana use a 0 mana yogg and then fill his board with big stat minions, and gain 12 attack
Really exciting stuff watching people play solitaire.
And now the fucking idiots who balance this game added TWO strong neautral enemy board clear cards to patch up the one weakness the deck might have had.
Reduce cost of all spells and spells cast twice is a nonsense mechanic tbh.

Potential buff for Climactic Necrotic Explosion
I was thinking about CNE recently and I think I might have a way to buff it while keeping the overall card the same. What if spent corpses could lower the card's cost, the same way the other numbers on the card are improved? Thoughts?
