Just 1 HERO class in Xpax is seriously wrong!

If the Blizzard development team cant see this then they are seriously not in tune with the community. How can you justify every realm filled to the brim with just Death Knights? You should have in Xpac at least 2 Hero Classes. Death Knight=DPS Tank so then also have a Hero class that is Range DPS/Healing to balance things out. Please dont make this game a joke with just one HERO class!

Its going to be even worse now that you dont have to be lvl 80. Its going to be flooded with Death Knights!

"Hero class" effectively means two things, and two things only.

They are generally based, conceptually, on a more prominent character or class found in Warcraft lore.
They start at a higher level.

That's it. Now we also want to do additional things, such as making them unique, making them interesting, and providing some very cool experiences tailored just for the new class. These classes are based on some very prominent figures, and we want to make it fun experience.

What "hero class" doesn't mean is that they're more powerful, they're going to be able to solo bosses, or that they're going to be anything but a new addition to your normal raid and dungeon groups.
