Its always was like that, u know. About 15+ years, player pick a proper class and do ez job. Yes, he can click and be backpedal, have no sense what to do, but class allow him don’t think about. This never ends untill class in this game be so a big deal, but its a PvE game about unique class mechanics and have zero about any balance in any aspect of the game. Its never ends, deal with it.
Its have sense, coz i think devs think the same. If class have 1-2 viable setups to play = its fine. There is only 1 hope, that they will give DK something against phys damage, coz nowdays phys attacks just delete DKs.
You’re absolutely right. Still, Mes is an insanely skilled multi r1 AWC player who plays with another 2 insanely skilled multi r1 AWC players in the arguably best comp for DK. You can’t really compare him to an average joe. That guy is in a league of his own.
haha using one topplayer as an example is not a valid argument.
dks in the brackets majority of the playerbase plays is more like it - and currently it is the lowest represented class by far together with dh.
Any bracket in both 2s and 3s, most classes have 4-5 times the representation DK have, some have more and a couple have 10-11 times the representation.
So its borderline unplayable. And all the fotm-heroes dont only think “DK is fine” they actually claim for dk to be nerfed.
God damned knuckleheads are going to create riots when they dont have freepass-oneshots any longer and the nerfhammer hits their hard skulls.
No, it should be balanced around 3v3 performance. And as it looks right now, you’re doing very well.
Duels, random battlegrounds, rated battlegrounds and 2v2 are a joke with meaningless / no rewards.
Or, are you arguing that Rogues should’ve been buffed in BfA? Because it sure sounds like it. No, you can’t have it both ways.
Ah, yes. Let’s buff DKs and thereby allow WWDK to auto-win every single matchup in the only competitive bracket that which also happens to feature Blizzard sponsored tournaments.
Above 2.1 in the 3s bracket dk is sitting at 2.8% of the ladder. There is only 1 class below it and that’s dh. If you take that data and come to the conclusion that the class is doing well then i’m not sure what to tell you.
Representation means alot more than you give it credit for. It’s a clear indicator showing which classes and specs are performing.
Prot pala isn’t played alot because it has 2 other specs which are also performing very well. All trees for paladins are currently sitting in strong positions which is why we see so many.
… I find it funny how the one argument people seem to use to justify not buffing DK damage outside of CDs, seems to be that it just makes a single comp too strong, when they’re not even the ones bringing the damage in that comp.
Doesn’t that seem stupid to anyone else?
Easy solution: Do more than just one thing. Rebalance the board entirely. Nerf WW, buff DK, nerf other stuff too, and buff other stuff as well. The game’s balance isn’t in a good state. It’s just that simple.
I’m not saying dk isn’t being played more or less im saying it’s utter garbage and isn’t performing anywhere near other classes. Take a look at your source for previous seasons and look at where classes sat and compare that to what we’re seeing now.
dk and dh are the only classes that currently have nowhere to turn as all specs are in a terrible position.
You will always get fotm players that isn’t anything new.
You have too high thoughts of Blizzard. They’re not going to massively re-balance the game into something that you’d like more.
At most they’re going to do some minor nerfs (and nerfs only) to 2-3 specs/classes.
It’s been played anywhere from 1-8% previously at 2.2K+, and it’s being played at 2.6% at the moment. It’s on the low end of the spectrum, but it’s not unheard of. Especially when you look at 2.4K+ the distribution gets better.
If it’s so bad, why is it that WWDK is so good and not, e.g. Warrior/WW? If DKs were so bad wouldn’t it be better to just replace it with, well basically any other class other than DH?
The truth is, DK is pretty OK, if not even pretty good, in combination with WW.
