Tell me you rerolled rdruid without saying it.
On a classic toon? O.o
Rdruid, still by a pretty big gap the best healer in every form of pvp.
After pretty substantial nerfs, still at the very top. Kinda crazy how overtuned this specc was, compared to others.
Same with dh every rog specc.
We kinda need more then surgical nerfs if a specc outperforms like that.
I think you had one too many smarties today bud.
Well, they haven’t. If we take participation and highest rating achieved as a healer spec, there’s been plenty of seasons where resto druid has been toilet tier in comparison to things like disc.
That’s not me defending resto druid currently though, I don’t even play the game at the moment.
I think I’ve failed to express what I meant 
I mean I’m not saying druid is top#1 mmr achieved every season. What I’m saying is that no matter what, druid is always AT LEAST decent. Whoever says it’s untrue is delusional. Even when druids are “toilet tier”, they still absolutely destroy 2s. The NUMBERS of healing and/or damage output is one thing, but the toolkit is whole another story.
2 stuns, invis, poly immunity, spammable clone and roots - and all that while doing NO casts in arena is crazy for 1 spec. And it’s either this way, either druid is going to be waaaaaaaay weaker if cyclone’s going to be put on cd. It’s not about numbers of output. In order to understand this, I highly recommend playing 2s against a druid with let’s say a DH right now.
I wish I could have something except ONE MELEE FEAR. My mobility is worse. My CDs require more skill - pushing a button proactively is not the same as pushing it retroactively. But that’s arguable for some people, I understand. Still my healing throughput is kinda the same (a little worse) right now.
Mobility - worse.
CC - worse.
Healing - ± the same, but tbh worse (I know people are gonna put clown emotions right now, but accept the fact: priest is not capable of 150k hps overall in arena for 2 minutes)
Was there like at least 1 AWC when RDruid wasn’t top 3 at least?
Offtopic, but what healer has the most AWC won?
99% of the rdruids i face in 3s dont even cast a single clone. Rdruid is just about sitting back and playing safe.
Super boring to play against btw. No casts needed, very hard to switch on, decent mana.

Well, can you judge them? I mean, I’ve gotten my highest this season by just being a maxrange healbot, unfortunately. Whenever I start being an actual dpriest and doing damage on GOs or trying to continue the CC chain, I start losing matches lol.
I bet every healer just wants to do bare minimum - to heal. Sad reality
Trust me, we’re not entertained by this gameplay either.
Probably priest, at least in recent years. Mehhx has consistently won AWC on priest with RMP. Last time I remember them losing to a different healer spec was vs Bank Fistweaver.
On NA Holy paladin was top winner seed for multiple seasons.
Generally AWC is a bad comparison for healer viability because comps like RMP eat up Resto druids for breakfast. And that says absolutely nothing, because Resto druid still dominates the meta right now.
