All the classes are my favorite.
But I give the fighter the "most improved" award. ^_^

The tingling means it’s working!
I voted Warlock. It's not the most Uber in combat (I think a heavy ranger wins that contest), but Warlocks are just cool.
They get fun, useful skills like Arcana, Bluff, Intimidate, Thievery, and Streetwise.
They get to zap foes with flavorful powers, for big damage.
They can curse enemies, and have pacts that trigger cool effects when a cursed creature dies. Meaning, they're one of the only classes that can have cool things happen to them even when it's not their turn.
They get decent weapons, decent hit points, and leather armor.
They gain concealment any time they move more than two squares, giving (essentially) +2 to defenses and letting them be decent scouts (regardless of class) if they spend a feat on Stealth. Also, if they invest feats in multiclassing into rogue or especially ranger, they can get some cool powers that let them attack and shift more than 2 scquares.
Those are a bunch of mechanical benefits, but really I just think Warlocks are *cool*.

I had to vote for the warlock, as soon as I saw it in the complete arcane in 3.5 I was smitten... and her name was Devi L. B. ich.
ahh good times.

Personally, I've found warlock to be the most improved and, really, pretty damn cool.

I think my favorite so far has been the Warlock. I love the flavor they gave the class, especially the Star Pact Warlocks.

I voted for the Warlock because it's good at what it does, as a deceptive fey contract, destructive infernal or versatile star pact. Hopefully we will see more pacts in th future. Its not uber powerful but it has flavour.
Wizards now all look pretty similar and clerics are very different.
My experience of playing a 4th Ed Cleric attempting to Turn Undead was dissapointing. Healing Word is really good though and the other Channel divinity powers seem ok.
