I did not tick the poll as it rather depends & my favourite live character gets an answer that is not even on the list - not a prayer mate.
My taste is for moderately complex characters so I never found fighters pre 4e much fun. As everything in 4e pre essentials is moderately complex I rather enjoy it.
My current lazy human warlord is completely out & I fear will probably never return.
My brand new psion is not currently available but may be - could approximate him with a wizard or sorcerer maybe. I don't know yet.
I have a number of technically live LFR characters. I don't think I could make a fighter who was as interesting to play as a tank like my highest level 4e character but I would be willing to try. This is bound to improve with the PHB but I maybe not enough.to hold my attention.
My status effect applying rogue is doomed - I might be able to rebuild him as a fighter rogue as his schtick was more knives (& cooking) than roguish skills. In fact he sounds fun as a duellist with a frying pan & carving knife, background Chef. This sounds fun I will try to play him this weekend.
Eladrin Warlord is doomed as neither of his fun suites of abilities are going to exist. (Martial buffs & teleporting elves).
I have a Pathfinder Inquisitor & witch both of whom I could make in 5e I think as they are really subclasses or obvious MCs.
I have a 4e warforged Barbarian who was a hoot to RP & tedious to play, which I expect would be the same in 5e.
I like bards as hybrids in theory but I have never got one to work particularluy well. The full caster may work better & may suit multiclassing into a martial class to make the hybrid. This is what I am looking forward to tinkering with the most.
