Demon Hunters and Death Knights will Start at Level 1 in Shadowlands

They said leveling from 1-50 will be close to 70% faster than current iteration of 1-120.
On top of all of this you get to pick where you want to level, which I think is going to make this part of the game quite enjoyable because it'll go quick and you can do it where you want.

Yeah I was spending considerable amount of time on retail, and I will probably finish my current team to 120 with some boosts for some alts. Given this information, I will probably take one team to 60 in Shadowlands, wait and see how the meta pans out, and build teams from there. In the meantime, maximize Classic as I'm sure by Shadowlands release there won't be much more to accomplish from a 5 man perspective.
