Why does it feel like Fmage CC has no DR? The CC is constant vs them.

Mage CC feels super powerful when on a root-prone melee such as DH or Fury warr. It can get infuriating, yeah.
Best you could do is use that PVP talent that lets you dispel magic effects and time it for novas
So is DH.
So is Rogue.
So is Druid.
So is Warlock.

Can’t you backflip out of nova every 10 seconds and immune more cc after ?

No. 20 second CD, and only immune during until I land, not the point I’m making though. Mages roots are constant, and feels everlasting.
Use these 3 PVP talents against frost mage:
Cleansed by Flame - Immolation Aura dispels all magical effects on you when cast.
Be smart with your immolation auras and don’t just waste them to do damage, think of immolation aura as full root dispel and play around that. When immolation aura resets, you get another full magic dispel on you again and again. All mage roots are magic.
Reverse magic - Removes all harmful magical effects from yourself and all nearby allies within 10 yards, and sends them back to their original caster if possible.
You must use this for double effect when they poly your healer and cast frost bomb on you. This is how frost mages burst. Your goal is to reverse both the frost bomb on you, and the poly on your healer, back to the mage.
Glimpse -
Vengeful Retreat provides immunity to loss of control effects, and reduces damage taken by 35% until you land.
Use when you know they are about to CC you. F.e. you healer is in poly with no trinket and you don’t have reverse magic, vengeful retreat away for a few sec denying CC on yourself.
The top of the Solo Shuffle ladder is full of DH players, the top 10 in both EU/NA is predominantly them. If they can do it, so can you. Learn and improve.

i might get flame here, but i find Frost mage annoying more when playing my SV hunter or DK
anti magic shell doesnt dispell, and has to be used to stop roots or poly most the time
and on Hunter i have to go full Range mode and hope to god when i go into melee he dont freeze n blink me
HOWEVER, if i play BM or MM the mage will get shredded
DK is hit and miss usually dont bother to go mage until i know he has no IB

I don’t mean for this character. I mean yeah, without cds, you still get trapped 24/7. I’m referring to my other melee classes.
I’m aware of DHs abilities.
sv is probably one of the best specs to play into mages
I still try to feign dispel frost nova with the muscle memory of all these years 
but even despite that, SV is quite good into mages
Help please, I cant get 100 % uptime against a class which historically counters melee even tho I have a perma magic wall and I am rarely getting targeted by any dps because my toolkit enables me to ges pedal all game and not be punished for it and basically I can only die to a rogue.
Life of DH is hard man.

Learn to read. I posted it on my DH but I ain’t referring to my DH. Even as a DH without CDs, they can be sitting ducks.
