There are many speculations who will plays what, but I hope Marisha chose something she really wanted and felt connected to. Because those assholes in the comments keep saying that she should play barbarian because she’s dumb and doesn’t learn spells or leave the game altogether. And I hate this. Critical role lasted this long not because they chose classes that they would be good at. And if she wants to play a bard or a monk or whoever, fucking let her.

Always remember: Marisha got the final how do you want to do this, and Marisha is the one with the perfect attendance record. We know what the show is like with literally any other player missing. She never has. Sam is gone, Travis is gone, the world keeps on turning.

On a related note, if she wants to play a Barbarian, more power to her. They’re not even dumb by default, it’s just that point buy forces you to dump certain stats. Did you see the stats Keyleth and Percy rolled last time? If there’s enough high numbers in the mix, there’s no need for a dump stat at all. I’ve seen smart Barbarians. I’ve played one. And some of the totem abilities especially require strategic and tactical thinking. So if she wants to play one, she’ll be fucking great at it.

(My money is still on monk, though)
