Is this a joke? MW crosses 70-80% of the map in 2 seconds with a Flag, no DPS can compete with that.
If the enemy team has an MW, you can just sit AFK. No way someone can catch that flying spinning thing.

By no means am I saying it’s fine, because it does need a nerf for sure. But rogues and dks are very effective against them. Issue is, people only start to actually care about focusing down the MW in higher MMR as opposed to lower MMR.
I told my team exactly how to play around the enemy MW, not a soul listened and none of them played properly either (1500-1800 MMR). While I am in 2100-2700 MMR the story is different. Practically everybody knows naturally without being told what to do.

They’re broken. It wouldn’t be so bad, but the fact they’re able to do it WHILE HOLDING THE FLAG is just straight up dumb.
The rules for flag carrying are all over the place. Either allow and enable everyone being able to use their mobility, or disable it entirely. Why can you teleport with the flag, but you can’t use things like gateway?

Yesterday, I saw the most broken thing in Twin Peaks. A Mistweaver Monk on the Horde team grabbed the Alliance flag, went to the edge of a building’s cliff, and “flew” across 70% of the map. None of the Death Knights could grip them either.
That may have been a mix of slowfall along with rolling at the edge in that case. As someone who mains Monk (and don’t wanna torture myself in SS in its current state), I have only had someone slowfall me ONCE in 122 games. But that combo is very broken yea.

Flag debuff (https://wowpedia.fandom.com/wiki/Brutal_Assault) includes movement speed limitation.
As paladin with steed you are screwed (increases movement speed).
Meanwhile DHs, Warriors, Monks, Druids have their other movement skills jumping around the BG.
Why can Monk teleport with flag, but the Warlock portal can’t be used?
The strongest deff CDs of paladin can’t be used on oneself or a target with flag (Bubble, BoP, Prot external Bubble), while others can (name any tank deff cd, or dmg mitigation cd).
PvP Balancing is just a joke, has always been, and will always be

just waiting for a Blizzard employee to lose horribly to a CTF MW and they will finally nerf that garbage.

just had a game with a mist weaver on my team, wanted to throw up after the 3/0. enemy team only could have warrior picking up the flag, I felt bad for them.
I rather have lost that game and I would be so happy.
