Req: more visual distinction for class cards

Looking through card images, it's not always visually obvious which class a particular card is restricted to. Especially class-specific minions.

There is distinction via the colored border, but it's subtle and ambiguous, especially to new players. There's no need for that in a good UI. "It's in the tooltip" is fine for extended info, but this should be "first glance" info.

I know the design intent is to reduce visual clutter, so the word "Warrior" somewhere on every warrior card is probably ruled out. But a little icon in a corner would go a long way here.

WoW already has icon standards for all these heroes that could easily translate.

There have been some changes made to the colored borders so they are more visually distinctive. Thank you for your feedback! :)
