Melee pressure getting nerfed or not?

so many double melees in the game

Yo check out these ranged Ret Paladins btw, why are they standing on top of the enemy instead of standing on the pillar and using their attacks from range? LOL, dumb AWC players.

lol the comments on there are golden aswell:

“MeLeE iS oNlY gOoD aT lOw rAtInGs”

“Fistweaver is only good at low ratings”

so many melees and always double pressuring and gathering around warlock players

That’s Reddit for you, players that are too embarrassed to show their retail character so flood that with nonsense anonymously. They should take a page out of Lily’s book.

Fistweaver the most represented healer in the game at 3100, I wonder what they have to say about that.

lol i think i know what u just did

And I already told you, that this isn’t fair. If mage would only have one good spec, every mage would play that. So just because Arcane is also very good and therefore decreasing the representation of fire, doesn’t mean fire isn’t beyond broken!

So we count mage and lock as two classes, not 6 specs! Everything else is just done to support your opinion.

No, but we could say that DK isn’t a bad class, because UH is doing quite fine!

Count again:

Class Count
Lock 7
Boomi 8
Mage 20
Shadow 6
Ele 21
Evoker 17
Total 79
Class Count
SV 2
Feral 14
DK 12
DH 3
WW 9
Ret 7
Rogue 19
Enha 0
Warrior 11
Total 77

But also Ret =/= Melee !!

In your dreams

How do you know? Every ele is botting btw. But laughable that you told us first that you played with Boomkin and now you say that you also played with Locks and Ele.

I knew that you aren’t trustworthy.

You only play shadow, you have no clue about other casters. Nor do you play ww, so you have no clue from their perspective either.

You just hate ww and arms, because they are the most stressful melees to deal with for you. That is a very biased and onesided opinion!

Oh right, you excluded mage only! :laughing:

Doesn’t change the fact that wizards are dominating 9-1 the top10. You are the one coming up with stupid arguments to support your opinion. So why can’t i? :slight_smile:

So you are saying every WW and Arms are bad against 90% of the casters and are horrible to play?
The entire thing were solely about WW and Arms are strong, they are not trash against every caster which some people seem to proclaim it is.
Since if it was so bad, as some people are saying, they would not be climbing into R1 if casters are overwhelmingly powerful.

Im not saying WW or Arms are OP, they are strong, simple as that and they are perfectly viable against majority of casters otherwise statistics would show them not even being able to climb. Theres more than just “OP” and “Unviable”.

ww is trash into casters we have zero cc and get outplayed by the massive difference, but ofc this only applies when they are good. 1 incap 1 sweep which gets instantly trinketed isn’t cc or competetive.
war can easily fight mages etc and eat locks whereas ww gets utterly destroyed by mages.

Only to you because it goes against your entire narrative.

Yet Fire is more represented than Arcane, and WW is still more represented than Arcane.

And guess what, WW is more represented than Destro, Demo and Affli at 3k+ combined DESPITE their being more Warlock players!

Yet you say Windwalker isn’t outperforming X class because a specific spec of it outperforms WW, therefore that class is stronger? You’re really liking picking and choosing how you assess spec balance. :rofl:

Arenamate shows 5.

Arenamate shows 15.

So, somebody’s site is off.

Yeah, that’s the beauty of being so embarrassed of your retail character, that you can just hide on a Classic character claiming you’re x y z with no proof of it. Why don’t you do something as simple as show us your Glad mount collection? Your highest 3s achievement? You can censor your name allll you want. This wouldn’t be a problem for somebody that actually has those things, but I bet you wouldn’t.

Because the Ele I played with is a friend I’ve known since BFA :confused:

How do you know?

How many times did you face SP/Boomkin on ladder? What was your peak rating last season? What comp did you play?

Yeah, you never heard of ‘solo shuffle’ or ‘alts’?

Says the guy that deliberately warps data to fit his own narrative constantly.

Nope, I spent 2 weeks playing Boomkin last season and got it to 2500 in 2 days. I also played Warlock to 2500, and I’ve played Shadow Priest to 2900 in 3s and Shuffle facing WW with every single caster, often time r1 players of that caster, and seeing how WW just stomps them.

Are you okay? I literally said that WW outperformed every single caster other than Ele, Fire and Aug. You’re ill, I swear you lie about what people say so many times.

Yeah…made up by the 3 specs that I’ve literally said multiple times are better than WW: Aug, Ele and Fire and there’s also a single Boomkin that also has insane synergy with WW. What a weird coincidence :confused:

And Windwalkers are dominating spec representation in the top 50. WW has 10 spots in the top 50, no other spec has that many.

Except my opinion is supported by factual statistics which indicates that they are exceptional performers and outperform the vast majority of casters in the game. You just don’t like that the factual statistics paint the truth about the exceptional spec that you’re not very good on.

The beauty of statistics: they’re facts, your opinion on the power of your spec only goes so far when the facts are there which shows you that it’s exceptional. Reminder, a list of all the caster specialisations WW outperformed above 3k:

The list of casters that WW didn’t outperform above 3k:

  • Aug (conveniently performs very well with WW)
  • Ele (which you claim were all bots, so I expect the disqualifications to come through and for that number to decrease, reducing the number of specs to come down to 2)
  • Fire Mage (conveniently has exceptional synergy with WW)

You’ve done very well to deflect from the original point, though. WW is exceptional into all but 3 caster specialisations, although you claim 1 of them was ‘all bots’.

Simple question which you haven’t been able to answer a single time: If every caster was so good against WW, why is WW outperforming so many of them?

Like I said, if ww are trash into majority of casters you would not see WW in the high rating when people keep saying the higher rating you go the more powerful casters becomes.
Its the “downplaying” the spec hard because they get countered by specific specs and drive it like it happens 99% of the times and the only reason they are able to climb at all, is because of their godlike skills against all odds. =p

This. Exactly this. WW outperforms all but 3 casters and the guy is claiming that 1 of them is ‘all bots’. Says a lot when you need a robot to play the game for you to outperform specs. Melees are also more represented than casters at 3k - 3100 +. The bias and delusions of these melee players, and the one hiding behind his Classic character because he probably couldn’t even get last season’s welfare drake, is hilarious to the point it’s borderline concerning.

Imagine if SP was outperforming all but 3 melees and I was in here saying that SP is bad into melees loooool. These guys wouldn’t have any hair left.

you would see ww at high ratings because majority of lobbies avg is melees which ww is good into. ww is horrible utterly horrible into good mages.

How do you explain WWs also being more represented than all but 3 caster specs in 3v3 at 3k -3.1k then?

Which has been established and is evident in the statistics. How about all the other casters?

No, I am saying that WW isn’t a complete joke into all caster (except mage). Keep out of the conversation if you have no clue what is about.

No, because it makes no sense!

Yeah, and Ele is more represented than ww + arms combined. So get your :poop: together!!!

No, I say ww isn’t a complete joke into all casters (except mage) like you are saying!

Arenamate is so 2015!

dear op melee pressure not being nerfed and it persist strong with 250 posts long

ngl, reading the bias is kinda funny, atleast when it comes to overreacting and not understanding what he rly means. So I guess I have no clue about it and you overreacting is good :+1:

There are at least 20 languages on earth and this gamer chose to speak faxx :100:

Yeah no. 2500+ is probably less then 1% of the player base.

If you want pvp to die even more and you only balance around the top you will have no players left.

If you pick a surten class too counter a broken specc, like picking hpal in season one vs assa rouge, even tho hpal was the worst performing healer overall… it just gave them one more setup vs assa rog.
Counterpicking doesnt work on ladder.

But if a specc is performing better by default you will see more representation on ladder and at awc.

Rdruid is bonkers broken pre and after patch. God tier even if sitting back only pve healing not utilizing the ridiculous kit they got.

I love a specc that needs to utilize the potantial in is doing good.
Bying broken by default is just ridiculous.

im just tired of this argument please go make a ww you’re a good player bro now go take it to high ratings then talk to me about how good designed the spec is and how good it is into casters after that.
1 build, tuning baked into every tier set, 2 locked honor talents along with bugs on our gapclosers, our combo point generation system vs what rogues generators is like etc is so bad lmao. ← just some of the issues.
