Mage - the Most complete class in the history of wow with no expansion

PVP Arenas
1

Mage is now the most complete class that has ever existed in wow… No class across any incarnation of wow has been as complete as a Mage is right now and I can tell you, at the highest level of play, Mage is comparable to post-rework Retribution Paladin…

When you look at Mage in both PVP AND PVE… Mage now has…

The best mobility
The best survivability
The best Crowd Control tool kit
The best solo kill set up

It literally is the best at the four component of arena that matter and when you start adding in other classes like Holy Paladins… Rogues… Maybe a warlock… You have an unstoppable, undefeatable set up which can only lose if, and only if the Mage makes a mistake…

I guess that Blizzard nerfed Balance Druids and Sub Rogue they may have been worried that Whazz might not win the AWC come wednesday but they’ve certainly now ensured RMP will easily secure the win once again because who do you kill??? No melee comp is viable on any level whilst mage is as it is and I feel like it’s seriously toxic to the entire pvp community that isn’t playing one or with…

Mage is still very squishy, but it requires coordination to kill mage since the patch due to all their mobility and cc

Mage has 0 passive survivability. Shadow priest is still strong and hardcounters mage. Boomkin is also still strong and hardcounters mage. Augmentation evoker is also still strong and hardcounters mage and is also a tank spec sold as support in pvp. UH dk is also still strong and also counters mage. Ww monk is also still busted and oneshots mages too, but it gets countered by mage in other ways tbf. Holy paladin is strong, so paladin / arms /mage might be a good comp too? Hunter got giga buffed, so maybe you see hunter / feral / priest, which is also good into mage / rogue /priest, so what’s the point of your post?

Nope, but enh is with his oneshots during whole expansion no matter what is ts - lava, elemental blast or ascendance

people will generally invite you if you at the same CR regardless of ur spec, else just find a community with like minded pvp players do some weekly rbgs etc. Ofc above a certain rating treshhold only specific specs are useful anymore but u can play whatever until like 2k and do well.
ofc this doesnt apply to hota/glad groups xd

no, what you meant to say was

“you should be able to play w/e you want up until 2k in rated bg regardless of meta”

which i completely agree on

the truth is, that at 1450cr you already have people mmr dropping and boosting, with fully glad and r1 team who don’t rly care about their rating as they only vault cap or boost ppl for gold, or worse, money, making matchmaking absolutely terrible because at 1450, you are most likely gonna be on a no voice group

my experience is that it takes 20/45 minutes to make something that resemble a group, you coinflip you way between;
1° Team that mmr drops, free win for you
2° boosting team, your team gets crushed instantly
3° you have an actual match

once you reach 1.6 mmr, you already enter the stage of “we want a perfect team all glads only meta classes” and thats where ive been stuck, i was 1600 at the second week, because i went there no voice, and since then ive only occasionally managed to enter some no voices and get absolutely crushed by enemy teams

The only RBG i can enter are the ones where we go in with almost 0 tactic, 0 exp, and 0 teamcomp, and we face duelist+ teams with teamcomp and voice, so, im often just ninjacapping and doing my thing by myself, which is the same as normal bg, all im hoping for is that someday i will be able to just Q rated bg just like normal bg and play, with rating

i already do that, i just don’t have the rating.
