I’m jumping into Hearthstone Arena and wondering which classes are currently the strongest picks. There are so many options, and I want to choose the ones that give me the best chance at winning. What classes should I be aiming for, and are there any particular archetypes or strategies I should keep in mind for these classes?

Personally, I always check out hsreplay.net before jumping into Arena drafts. They offer great up-to-date data on class winrates and popular cards that can give you a big edge when picking your class and cards.
Demon Hunter is currently topping the Arena charts, followed closely by Shaman and Priest. If you get the chance to pick Demon Hunter, I highly recommend going for it. They have some strong aggressive tools and survivability in Arena.
Death Knights are actually pretty solid too, especially if they can get their two corpse-spender cards that deal direct face damage. With the new imbue hero power, they can apply consistent pressure that Priest often struggles to handle due to the high damage output.
In addition to Demon Hunter, Shaman, Priest, Death Knight, and Mage are strong picks overall in Arena right now. Those classes offer good balance between removal and board control that helps a lot in the drafting and gameplay phases.
I’d steer clear of classes like Paladin, Hunter, Druid, Warrior, and Warlock if you want the best shot in Arena right now. They don’t seem to be performing as well compared to Demon Hunter or the other stronger classes mentioned.
What kind of builds or archetypes should I look out for with Demon Hunter in Arena? Any specific cards or strategies to prioritize?
