TOPIC: Least popular classes for Sealed Pack runs

What character classes are least likely to be picked by new folks in Sealed Pack PUG runs?

I ask because I've signed up for a Fang & Fury run, tend to arrive early, and want to pick a class that I like but that is also less likely for someone new to have wanted. Two years ago, Raptorov mentioned that for general PUGs "I have noticed during coaching, the three least popular classes are Elf Wizard, Wizard, then Monk. Most popular is cleric, then Ranger and maybe Rogue, " Would that be the same for Sealed Pack PUG runs?

This doesn't answer your question directly, but when it comes to new player groups or PUG groups, I usually like to play Bard since you typically don't slide, you just "sing" to help everyone. Or I like Cleric because again you're helping everyone.

But what I really like is to let everyone else pick and then I pick last. Often it's a class I never or rarely play, then I have to at least figure out the basics and usually end up learning something new...hehe.
