Why is there no 1v1 PvP yet, and never was?
There’s people that enjoy duels a lot. No interference from anyone else, plain 1v1 skill.

How would you even balance it? Take a rogue for example, would climb the ladder very high only due to their toolkit, not the players skills.
I think I’d blow most rogues tbh

In BfA we had that one v one outdoor arena you could queue up for.
I only remember doing it for achievements. So it was either I stood there getting bashed or I bashed others.
It never seemed to be used much tho.
Yes cause it was unfair because you were using ur cds to kill some1 and then a second enemy was chosen and u had no trinkets or cds.Also u had to be in specific area to que.
Also it had no rating and was giving no honor or arena points , so yes it was wierd.
If we had 1v1 que in a nice open space arena with rating and some honor gain etc i think many ppl would like it, or maybe not who knows. I dont think its that hard to implement.

Indeed if it was properly implemented it would probably be more popular.

Sounds like fun! Might be the kind of PvP that could actually get me to do some PvP at all, since I could practice and get better solo without dragging anyone else down with me. If one could queue from the PvP tab, and there were a couple of different arenas that might randomly be to your advantage or not… Could even be small minigames, like a maze where you can place traps to hinder each other or something.

Well, probably it’s impossible to balance/tune classes to have a fair and competitive 1v1 session without breaking the entire game.
I think every class has its weaknesses. No class wins against all, so it’d be fine I think.
3v is not balanced neither. This is why we got tier S,A,B,C specs.

It would probably be just dps then, Im trying picture heal vs heal or dps fight against healer like disc/hpri that win all dps as default. Well I would play disc, fw would probably give it challenge but I would have fun. 
I think any DPS with good survivability (lifesteal, etc) would win against any healer, after the healer was out of mana ofc.
And every tank spec too.
disc will never oom 1v1 with this current design, it just has permanent mana from the fiend that it keep cdr doing dmg that also heal him
1v1 arena would be dominated by tanks xD
10 mins limit, no1 dies = draw
No tanks & healers allowed xD
