I'm confused is this a real class or a jab at fourth edition. If it's the former than forgive me, if it's the latter I'd like to point out that the Homebrew Design forum is not a place for such things. Neither is Gaming, really.

It's not a jab. I love 4E, seriously, I just that there are some things that I would have done differently.

For one thing, I think that there should only be four classes (Defender, Controller, Leader, and Striker) and that the classes as we know them should exist as build options.
There are also other things I want to change, like giving the races build options, and simplifying things overall.

Ah, okay. Do you have any other 5e materials released? It's a bit hard to judge something without knowing the system it's for (because I assume 5e differs from 4e significantly).
