Some of them are quite useful.

imho, most of the cards are useful in such context, however a lot of the legendary (even for epics) are quite situational and quite tricky to use them correctly especially when come to Arena since you can't rely on drawing cards that combo well with your future picks, you must prioritize cards that are less situational, have solid stand alone value rather than gimmicky cards. if you're struggle to get more than 4 wins, you should re-consider how you value the cards.

for instance, lorewalker choo, interesting ability but wont give you much benefits and usually end up hurting yourself. The card shouldn't be an early pick, you can only pick that card if you've drafted very few spell cards at the very end of your draft. if that card showed as an early choice, DO NOT PICK IT.

A quick question, faceless manipulator, cool card right? under what conditions you should pick it over the others?

Situational in arena as you'll need something to copy, and it can go either ways (nothing decent to copy). If you can secure some good minions or a good legendary as early pick then its a good pick.

Would be lovely if someone can give me a key

I really want to play this game!!!!!! If anyone got xtra keys want to giveaway or sell pls pm me!! super desperate to play it!

You must have at least one full version of a Blizzard Entertainment game attached to this Battle.net account in order to opt-in Diablo, StarCraft or Warcraft beta.

is that meant only gamers who has any full version game eligible to get hearthstone beta key?

Sounds like it

no wonder

Just came back the game few days ago, seems like priest got a huge buff turn one cleric is + turn 2 health buff is very hard to deal with if you dont get lucky with early creature removal draws.

pretty sure this is untrue

FYI, when you created new bnet account without any games attached, you're still able to opt-in Hearthstone closed beta while the others are disabled.
A few Taiwanese friends of mine got into closed beta without by using new bnet accounts.

It is obvious that Blizzard also want to carter non-Blizzard gamers with this free-to-play game.

well agreed, that is the point of a faceless right, However i was hoping that someone would answer, you will need hard removal spells (like assassinate, polymorph, or BGH) before picking Faceless.

If you can clone a minion and remove its original copy, it is basically a mind control spell that cost 2 cards

I would only pick faceless if I didn't have any big drops in my draft. So I use it as substitute for a big drop, obviously you wanna remove theirs, too.

looking for beta key as well...hope a kind soul can help me out...thanks

Well you can look into that as a 'pseudo mindcontrol' but also rely on situational/luck Faceless got no particular strategy, just make sure you have cool critters picks to copy, and hope your opponent does too.
