i can’t wait to q into mage lock
ret war is disgusting i agree, but what will happen S2 will be awfull for sure
its cool that they buffing bomb, its not cool they buffing the rest, frost rly doesn’t need a dmg buff, not on those spells anyway, frost is A tier right now, so i guess 10.1 makes it S tier looking at those changes
i mean, who is still playing mage in pvp in 2023 ? look at any ladder 2v2, 3v3, rated bg, soloshuffle, in partecipation, you can check them out on check.pvp
spoiler, mage is pretty low, and has been since season 3 Shadowlands
still, these frost buffs are kinda meh, im okay with casted dmg, icelance just feels wrong atm, flurry icelance spam is lame and too strong, i got no problem with buffy frostbolt glacial or frostbomb tho
still not gonna play frost probably, playstyle is just not enjoyable as much as arcane
Oh really? How did the player base developed in the past 15 years? First it went up, exciting game aspect, very enjoyable and since all were noobs quite everything was viable.
Then people got better and figured out of how broken RMP is and from that point on each expansion more and more players quit the game. Only remaining are RMP players and game addicts.
Let us not forget, that it was the first season with rated solo shuffle and that most players prefer that over regular arena!
And the reasons therefore wasn’t Ret+Arms, even though it was annoying to play against, but nobody played 3s either when both weren’t as good and when Assa Rogue was the most broken spec ingame!
I would even go as far to say, that in 10.0.7 more people played regular arena than in whole DF before.
Funny, I really hope you do not think people believing your theory which says that RMP ruined the whole pvp game only because people got better at it xD ( write novels, great imagination, you’ve showed nothing so far but your opinion, which is ok )
First part of the season was really enjoyable and it has actual diversity, you can’t deny that
What you cannot deny either is that since ret got buffed the meta got shifted to the most toxic state it has ever been, you can’t deny that too !
True, shuffle absorbed a lot of players from the other brackets but dps queues are 50 minutes because no healer want to queue into some “least smart” ret fotm reroller having 3k cr shuffle and 1.6cr on 3s with 1000 games xD
Yeah, people played more arena in 10.0.7, they were for most ret wars xD
You don’t have to waste your breath on this person who’s just throwing blind hatred while “hiding” on a classic character. And before that, he was just as insufferable “hiding” on a non max level character that was unbound from his account to be more discreet. And the saddest part is that it wasn’t enough to actually hide his shortcomings on his retail characters.
I don’t, but I also can’t deny that Assa was the most broken spec ingame before that and that nobody played regular arena even though RMP was good and Arms+Ret wasn’t viable.
I also can’t deny that regular arena became more often played with 10.0.7. It hadn’t much diversity but still was a lot more played.
So we can come to the conclusion that you personally hated the meta, but its just your personal opinion and all your arguments were nothing but a stinky brain bomb!
Which means people enjoy ret+arms more than rogue metas, so for the final time: troll somewhere else!
What are you troll even talking about? Before I posted with that character I posted with a max level character even though I barely posted at all!
But it’s funny, that you tell people of how toxic I am, not realizing that exactly that what you are doing right here is even more toxic!!!
Then I got you wrong. I was more focused on the part
I am just honest here, I hate Rogues and Mages like nothing else in this game. If they are meta it is the most bad experience from my point of view. Even when there are other comps with them meta, it is still totally unfun from my perspective.
brain bomb!
