It doesn't make sense business wise, I'd think. Right now people spending money on the game are (for the most part) going to be buying packs for the new cards, pre-order or just straight up packs after launch. I think we'll see the next batch of heroes a month, month and a half after TGT hits, when people need something new to be excited about and possibly spend money on.

If I have Hearthstone installed on my phone from the Amazon app store how do I get the battlenet authenticator. If I have the authenticator from the play store it won't let me install Hearthstone from the Amazone store, and if I uninstall the Authenticator and install Hearthstone from the Amazon store I can't install the Authenticator
I am kinda disappointed from the mage cards. I can see Polymorph:Boar working in an aggro deck. Arcane Blast looks good, but i still don't know if a spell power deck would be viable. I like Flame Lance also and would likely replace 1x Polymorph in the decks who run it, not that huge of an improvement though. On the fence about Coldarra Drake and Fallen Hero. Dalaran Aspirant is nothing to write home about, Effigy is interesting, but also RNG dependent. Not sure how it'll compare to Mirror Entity. Spellslinger also another RNG card that might hurt you more than help you in certain matchups. Rhonin is trash and just too slow. What i've wanted to see was a card than could enable a finishing combo, but it's not there. Just more removal and it's not what the class needed.
From the rogue cards, Anub'arak, Beneath the Grounds, Cutpurse and Poisoned Blade are terrible. Burgle, Shado-Pan Cavalry and Undercity Valiant are average and average cards don't make it in good decks. The ones i like are Shady Dealer and Buccaneer, pirate rogue might become a real thing.
EDIT: Just stating preliminary opinions, there are always surprises and i might be wrong on some of the those cards.

How can you be on the fence about fallen hero? It's got the stats it needs for two mana and a very powerful effect.
Does anyone know the levels on the new reward system, is it even in right now?
I wonder if I should bother pushing past rank 5 right now if the rewards stop at rank 10.

I don't see how flame lance will be better than polymorph pretty much ever. Poly removes deathrattles which is a pretty big deal and divine shields which can be useful, and it's a mana cheaper.
It won't count your highest rank until the patch hits. Card rewards top out at rank 5, you get some more dust from 5 to legend.

They specifically had an example of what you would get at rank five, so seems reasonable to assume its different than rank ten.

Pure speculation but I'm guessing that Rewards are Tiered every 5 ranks. I.E. 20 to 16 gets the worst package. 15 to 11 gets the next. 10 to 6 gets better. And so on.
Also from what I understand, rank capture is not implemented yet. Meaning if you get rank 5 now but slide back to 12 your highest rank achieved will be 12. I think it's supposed to go in with the Grand Tournament patch.

Meh, i feel that it might slow you down trying to get value out of it. In some matchups it should be a great card though. We will have to see if it finds its way into a viable deck.
Poly can sometimes be a tempo killer because you *have* to deal with the sheep. In some cases Flame Lance is better because of the clean kill (Boom, Mal'Ganis, giants for example). Overall i think it's a good supplementary removal card and might have a place in a control mage deck.
