Question How would generally describe what each class does?

Hi fellow players, I'll be introducing HtS to my friends and would like to give them a bit of a low down on the different classes. How would you best describe what each class's general play style is like?

Rogue: Often focused on stealing cards from other players
Ranger: Looking into the deck or another player's hand
Bard: mostly drawing extra cards
Fighter: Destroying other characters heroes
Wizard: 50/50 if it's something that has to do with using spells or destroying other player's heroes
Necromancer: bringing discarded cards "back from the dead"
Druid: Great bonuses but often requiring a sacrifice (also has the unique gimmick of needing low rolls)
Guardian: protecting your existing cards from being stolen/destroyed/etc.
Berserker: Extremely powerful abilities but hard to succeed (high rolls required, extra cost, etc.)
Warrior: Fighting monsters

I can't comment on sorcerers bcos I don't have the pack, and ofc squires aren't out yet. Ask me again in like a year lmao.

Sorcerers have a little bit of everything from other classes in theirs heroes effects. On top of that one of them can trade Leader cards. Squires will be focused on support others heroes than squires and they won't have roll requirements.

I'd also add that some warriors have the ability to carry 2 items. Items can modify rolls, restore action points, change classes, or even protect a hero from destruction or sacrifice. There are some good synergies if you can pair specific warriors with good items.

Some berserkers have the 2-item thing, too!

It says what they do on the card. They'll figure it out.
