i am normally a lurker, but i had to post in response to this question. one thing that draws me into the game is the actual characters themselves. If the cards were simply "fighter" or "wizard" and not real characters the game would lose alot of depth as playing those characters. One example is ezren. He is a wizard that has turned his back on the gods. Because of that he gets no blessings. To me it really brings depth to the game. This is because not only do the classes affect the cards capabilities and play styles but the personality of the character also shapes it as well. I really hope (and i'm looking at you mike) that going forward that more characters are not just a sum of their powers but also a representation of their choices as well.
