This is probably gonna piss in some cheerios but if they found a way to dump DKs into classic with a twist and just make them start at 1 like the rest of the plebs, I’d probably sign up.
The warlock changes are almost enough to get me to fuck around again.

Would be cool if Paladins and maybe Warriors got a lv50 quest in WPL where they get turned by the Scourge, go on a rampage through Hearthglen killing Scarlets, then break free because of Tirion Fordring.
It's kinda what the DL starting zone was, but you are actually invested in the character because of the 1-50 journey.

It sounds great as long as it doesn't hinder those particular classes. Like all of a sudden a rogue tank in raids is meta. Of course it shouldn't just because of itemization but you never know.
Good changes, wotlk prot war skills in classic is fucking mint.
I also really like the lvl 25 cap, curious if they will add another or just go straight to 60 afterwards.
You can't really tank any raids sub 60 due to crushing blows and not sure if classic without even MC for 6months + is brilliant or a disaster.
Having BRD as a raid zone gives me vex thal PTSD.

They must have more to announce then?
If they reveal the next tier before launch that's a good sign they'll have a decent content schedule.

They didn't show any of it, but at the end of the classic presentation they hinted at gnomeregan, scarlet monastery and karazhan crypts as upcoming content, which we can assume might be level cap raids.

I feel like I saw a slide that said level bands would be 25, 40, 50 and 60

Granting shit like 50-point Wrath talents at a level where the class doesn’t even have half its baseline spells from Vanilla yet is just a laughably absurd design choice.
This is something I’d expect from kids just monkeying around with the settings on their own pserver, although I guess that also describes the Blizzard of 2023.

Will be curious if they end up the EQ route. Divide their playerbase. 1 regular classic server and then 1 server where they put all the weird ideas to test them out.

welp WOTLK is confirmed dead since they are moving to Cataclysm but fuck yes SOD looks fucking amazing.
Vanilla is just such a superior game world and superior product in every conceivable way, except class balance is absolute shit, world buffs are fucking gay, and everything is known and solved.
Season of Discovery resolves 2 out of the 3 problems by bringing customizable wrath/tbc class design into classic and by adding new mysteries/unknowns to solve, new raids/gear/etc, at least for a few weeks as each level band is released.
I guess we're just forever stuck with world buffs. Fuck whoever came up with them hope they are getting ass raped in a prison somewhere.

looking at the skills i'm pretty sure its going to be wotlk era mechanics not classic. ie +crit/expertise/hit rating not + weapon skill. looks like no crushing blows, just enough defense to hit -6% crit chance since all the non-tank tank skills are getting that.
Also seems like threat will be closer to wrath than classic. with feral druids getting windfury affect and paladins getting tremor totem, the question is what does horde get from paladins to make it even? where's the Salv? oh its built in just like it is in tbc/wrath.
