Hi,
Im probably going to get flamed by some virgin alone and angry person.
From having fun in SoD pvp with all its flaws to trying out Cata.
Cata is S tier garbage pvp.
Its pure pain to see F1 mounts in Bgs.
Micro stuns every where.
Damage output is crazy.
And super fast combat where people basically have no idea whats going on as a melee. If there are no healers you are dead in 1-2 seconds.
In SoD it was 2-4 seconds.
People run around with increased speed in general doing crazy super fast hits and runs.
Where some classes all of a sudden jumps or flew whatever, half the map.
The maps that felt big from classic, now feel like a cramped room with ADHD classes running around doing micro stuns.
Its for sure you didnt played Cata pvp, prepatch damage is way high compared to lvl 85.
BS about microstuns, wut ? its not retail, cant even remember new microstuns added in to game compared to wotlk.
Check some glads vods from CATA beta, fights taking mostly more time then was in tbc p1 and feel more rewarding cz every 1 got more utility and ways to counter it.
Yeah cata is the expansion with the highest time to kill in the history of wow. The only reason why you get killed so fast is that the devs don’t give af about the game, and they released it with the resilience is not even working currently.

Personaly I feel exactly the other way around. SoD PvP ist the most unbalanced mess they have ever created. And yes I do realize how it was never intended to be more than a funny wow classic mod so nothing wroth with that either. Its nice people can enjoy that. I didnt. But thats a personal opinion and really has no business being made into a forum thread.
You didn’t play the Classic where the rogue got a one-hit kill.
Cataclysm has no problems now. When I started playing cataclysm on a feral druid in 2011. At BG 70-74, I could kill a full pvp rogue with one hit for a 12-14k crit.
The bottom line is that the cataclysm is designed for 100-200k health. Accordingly, the damage to your skills is very high. Therefore, it is not correct to estimate the level of damage at the current level of 80.
Cata pvp atm feels like that because of patch. Actually ppl do pvp with wotlk gear and stats, but cataclysm talents and skills. That situation repeats himself on every transition to next expansion. Try pvp when max leven in actual cataclysm with pvp gear. SoD pvp is the worst on Wow history.
Cata, mop, wod, had the best and most balanced pvp in my opinion.
Peace!
