Although the introduction of demon hunter made it possible to reach legend in a f2p account easier than ever before, it also creates a problem for new players.
The "early" game ladder (rank 40 chicken) is bloated with demon hunter (I'm talking about 90% of encounters are against demon hunter). Seeing as the core cards for demon hunter are quite stronger than other classes, it creates this situation where it is impossible for a new player to get out of that new player pool unless they also play demon hunter.
Essentially, a new player will hop on a match and face (more or less) the same deck as in the regular ladder which defeats the purpose of a separate ladder.
I think Blizzard should acknowledge that the core set for Demon Hunter is stronger than other classes' and just remove the class from the new player pool.
