Is there a class your eager to try out in the new rules?

Whether you agree or disagree with the new rules and playsets, is there a class your looking forward to trying out with newish rules.

Eh, not really. The subclass that I most like the changes for by far is the Fey Warlock (though I'm a bit if-y on the changes to the main Warlock class), but even assuming my group house-rules in the changes we like from 5.5e, I've already played a Fey Warlock, and there's plenty of things I haven't played that I'd be more eager to play before re-playing anything I've already used, even with a bunch of positive changes.

Beyond that you have a mix of classes that are probably improved, but not in ways that excite me (Sorcerer, Monk - especially since I hate what they did to the Four Elements subclass, which I was so wishing for a good version of); a class that got something that I think is cool but isn't really one I personally want to play (Rogue); and things that either didn't change much (Wizard) or that I'm more mixed or negative on (most of the rest).

Even if they made base DS not a spell, it would probably still take a bonus action...

For sure. I'm totally ok with that. I just have issues, both mechanically and thematically, with base smite being a spell.

I have to admit, Wishing for the UA version of a feature is novel if nothing else

Not something I'd thought of before now, but certainly intriguing. You'd need a really kind DM to allow it without complications, but I quite like the concept.
