Personally, I think there should be more class allies combined than faction and/or Neutral allies. As long as they're designed with forethought and balanced, you will see more variety. With my Monk class, Shaorin Monk doesn't really replace
Puwen or
Blake, it's just an ally you'd use for a deck focused on Fate, Destiny, and Legacy. Nameless Hero is an ally that would be the first 4-drop for Humans I guess. And for Sword Saint, it doesn't replace
Raven, it's just a Monk alternative like Shaorin Monk. The cards were designed so you can play without the main Fate mechanic; although the deck probably wouldn't fair as well; so you can use the Human allies exclusively. And given a greater card pool, the class can be more balanced where the Fate-less flavour can do just as well as the themed decks.
