We complained about the last season and there weren’t many people playing. Somehow Blizzard attempted to fix the game and now barely anyone plays the game. I swear more people played last season.

idk about people overall but healers seem to be far less at times ye. when i log my hpal there are plenty of dps waiting for me.
Like every season when you play healer 
They are just at 1,8k+ it seems, while dps are stuck at lower ratings.
Its just not worth it to play this game in this state as a healer. Rather unsub and play other games (u know where devs actually balance it, mindblowing I know)
Doesnt matter how much feedback they get it goes straight to the bin

Mindblowing indeed. Which games could that be?
Why do you healers always complain there is nothing wrong with the healers atm yes holy is overtuned the problem is all anyone does on this game is FOTM it wouldnt be a problem if people just played what they enjoy 2s is not full of holy priest because they are 10x better than any other healer spec as you can still beat a holy priest team with any of the other healers if you are good enough its full of it because you swarm like flies to the next best thing every patch first it was holy pala then rdruid and now its holy priest.
Blizzard cant fix this you nerf hpriest to the ground and then they will all reroll to the next best thing and it starts all over again.

Leveling affly lock, low level bgs are full with destro locks, last one was from 10 players 6 locks,1 affly (me) 5destro.
Rerrollers incoming :d
Oh is that so xD
I said
Regardless of healer balance its a miserable experience, but im sure someone who only plays dps knows better.
see that’s the problem with blizzard. They cant nerf it just a little or boost the other healers , they will nerf it to the ground and it will be unplayable
Since i started playing in 2006 blizzard never understood to do a good nerf or buff.
The nerf is most of the time to heavy while the buff is to low.
Or as a community we can stop playing fotm only and it wouldn’t matter if there was 10 destro locks that were just overtuned for 1 season the same as it was in mop and older xpacs the problem is everyone has a fotm alt so everyone has a holy priest does not matter if blizzard nerf holy every week for a month everyone is going to still be holy priests …

I would say it was compounded by the fact some healers only got a lot better when they had access to tier set.
It will never happen because the community of WoW mainly consist of 20+ and 30+ guys who play this game at least 6 years. People in this age gap are simply tryhards. They don’t play specs because they enjoy them but reroll every season to S Tier because they play for rewards and achievments. Most of them know basics of all specs. With websites like Skill-Capped and streams people are able to learn easily from the best. Look what happened with Classic. People read every guide, collected every consumable and world buff and then farmed the raids like Heroic dungeons. Same goes for PvP - majority of the players have many alts.
Only Blizzard can fix this situation. I posted what is the only solution for it. Different rating for each spec considering that it will be easier to gear up in the next expansion this is a good option to keep ladders active. You said that Maro will take spot of the best Fire/Frost/Arcane. Maybe but isn’t he doing it now anyway with multiple chars. Just limit the amount of Rank 1 spots to one per account and problem is solved. MMR and ranking systems are quite outdated. Last revamp brought a bit of fresh air but further changes are welcome.
I think that many specs that are considered B or even C tier are actually highly playable and able to achieve really good ratings and are only struggling into absolute top ratings but all the tier lists and community “culture” in WoW makes everyone play Destruction, Fury, Rogues, Hunters, Mages and H Priests. Rated solo shuffle as a new extra bracket is already a step in good direction. Further improvements like ladder changes might improve the entertainment of PvP more than new arena added.
You cannot force people to do what you want to do by just telling them to do it. Good designer seing certain specs being so overrepresented would improve the system to the point where people want to try all specs.
