To be honest, in my opinion at least, Hearthstone is far from balanced and ironically, I am not the only one saying it, Blizzard admit that some Priest cards are out of hand, same for Rogues combos (nerfed a few times and probably will be nerfed again soon) or some "Free Mana" Cards that just give some "Key states" to minions "for free" and can just flip the game.
/* start rant */
And yeah, what I hate the most is when I am winning, I made good decisions, I managed my cards and then I am, literally stomped, by something like a "Brewmaster + Golem + Charge Card" combo, which consists mainly on:
- Charge Cards normally cost 0 Mana. Some minions provides it as an Aura for less than 4 Mana.
- Wait until your Hero is "low on health" (actually below 20).
- Keep your 2 Young brewmasters and Older brewmaster in your hand.
- When you have, at least, 10 Mana.
- Play Golem + Attack + play Brewmaster.
- Repeat last move until you run out of Mana or your opponent dies from 20+ Health.
Yeah, if someone is wondering, I got beated today with this retarded strategy several times and I always lost in 1 turn when I was going to win in the next one. It is tremendously frustrating. xD

I know, if they use it, why don't you do the same? Honestly? I feel like cheating when using certain cards, even if it seems stupid saying it. Another reason why I don't use is... because I don't have them. XD

But as for my favorite Hero it's got to be Valeera(rogue). It's always funny going, that a nice 7/6 you got there, then playing Assassinate. :P
Perfect example of a "balanced" card. xD
