My own prejudices are against fighters, rogues (no spell-casting abilities for those two), samurais (armor is too dang heavy at lower levels) and all of the pure spellcasters other than the bishop (Especially now that bishops can access all four schools of magic). I enjoyed lords, ninjas and monks in Wiz 7 but had other areas I wanted to focus on in Wiz 8 so I stuck with my Valkyrie.
I could see substituting one of those last three classes for my Valk but that's about the only one I'd really change in my core group. I just can't see giving up my bard and gadgeteer - they're too neat. I consider my ranger indispensable. The same with my two bishops, though I might consider changing them to mage & alchemist instead - I consider those to be the two best schools.
Of course, if I DID give up my Valk, I'd want Vi to replace her and I might consider replacing my gadgeteer with another melee-er like a monk or ninja but I'd want Madras to replace him. I would change my gadgeteer before my bard because I don't like Saxx at all. Madras is annoying but I can put up with him more than Saxx.
