Thanks, we have a different rating gain guarantee for PvP (+400 rating) and our M+ site (+500 IO) and I honestly got them mixed for this one. My apologies.
@@SquishyOfCinder Not really. They have been around since before Wrath I believe. Their guides are also intended for noobs. For a noob, getting +400 rating is pretty insignificant when starting from nothing lol
They patched hunter dismiss pet way back in the day too. The work around was a macro to abandon your pet. So yes, after the arena you would have to tame another one. Just post up where the monkeys are and tame a new one once the arena match is over. Im sure it will still work but I havent tested it yet.
That hunter trick wasn’t dismissing your monkey. You had to abandon the monkey so that the next summoned monkey could give you roar or sac 😂😂😭. I had a buddy back in the day who used to climb 3v3 as a hunter and he just stayed at deadmines farming monkeys lol
Not true. Wotlk had more. Wotlk all 4 healers were viable, now, R druid sucks. Wotlk tanks were even viable. Not now. In Cata 2v2 the only viable healer DPS comps are DK healer or feral disc. Everything else is double DPS teams.
Agree with previous comment. Cata is just gonna be rogues and some feral comps ruling the ladders, until legendary staff amps up a couple other casters.
@@wh0racle3 2 highest comps right now are arms/hpal and sub/disc. Mage/disc, lock/sham, fire/hpala are also very good. Meanwhile half of viable 2x dps are hunter teams and they are the only class that took a nerf compared to original cata. If anything the meta is healer friendly rn.
Ele is easier to get into than balance. No 2 spammable CC hardcasts, no dilemmas of exiting form to provide healing/kick/stun, basically no snapshotting.
That was such a good part of cata back in the day. Sad that won't be a thing this time around. Loved leveling and queing for a random bg back in the day sure you didn't have the whole toolkit of the class but that didn't matter the unbalanced pvp was fun.
I play both feral and sub, i will 100% say sub is the hardest of all melee, regarrdless of how insanly good they are in cata. the class in literually unforgiving by mistakes, as feral you have better defensive options and your cds are shorter than sub. so basicly its a cd trade and if the sub fuck up once he will lose, feral can survive many situations when doing "mistakes". any other melee class is a joke compare to those two classes, especially DK and paladins
Feral's cds are shorter? CR is a 90 sec wall and SD is the only 1 min burst cd in the whole game. When talking about skillfloor rogue is definitely forgiving to mistakes. Neither one has any real weakness except maybe lack of ccbreakers and probably the only reason feral is put higher, is wotlk people not being used to tracking buffs to snapshot good dots.
@@motherpigeon1582 the thing is that sub will loose if you dont use ur CDs correctly, this is arena im talking about. If you waste Vanish or prep you will loose at a certain level. Im not talking about your 1300 rating.
Back in the day most of my 3x holy power are spammed on wogging my team mates to full hp lol. I can only imagine the look on my enemies' faces seeing my 90k+ wog.
Yes i am so pissed about these 2 spells, sifting presences was cool itself the sound and animation, mad the DKs way cooler, and the skilled ones, did use UH presence for assaults, and Blood for when getting nuked from someone, that made the gameplay way better... And necrotic strike was also so good, stacking it multiple times, then use burst and melt down someone if possible... Tho i was never fan of the old rune system, only cuz DK is so slow, and runners like druids, hunters, mages, did piss me off, and spamming chain of ice/ HB did NOT use the UH runes, so it was kinda useless for me, when they did run, and i had x2 runes that could not spam chain of ice or HB in order to trash someone... But aside from that i had no problem with them.. These days AMS is joke, it pops on 2 sec of use (hell back in WOD frost DK was so strong, AMS with glyph did last 8 seconds, and never did pop before the 8 seconds..), and DS did heal so good in WOD/ MOP.. Today DS does nothing is just spell that dump ur runic power, and heals u for nothing... And after the plate nerf in pvp, DKs are free kills... Is disgusting...
@@themobster7284 so true. Yea but the old runesystem was something you need to manage and play in youre rotation. Today you just have youre runes and yea you were slow but the manage of the runes and rotation was cool. And yes the selfheal today is nothing...
@@syxqid3818 Well as i said, i had no problem with the old system overall, but the times when someone runs away on low HP and i have only x2 UH runes that sit there and i cant use them for HB or chains it did piss me off, and i really wanted inly cuz of this, all runes to be death runes, so i can use them the way i want... Total spam of HB or chains is a bliss, since we are so slow, and other classes run away with ease... Damn druids spam shape shift so much that even x6 runes are not enough to chain them... But if there is way to get what i had in WOD working DS, presences, old runes system, necrotic, working AMS, actual scary dmg, id take them in a blink of eye, and be happy........ Is so annoying warriors got stances back, paladins got auras back, meanwhile we got jack shht, no presences, no stuff like abomination might raid buff/ icy talons, or the old horn of winter... Hell they did even gut the death auras, that they introduced in Legion... Frost hearth stop aura was too op, so it was deleted, UH aura was ok, but got 50% nerf... Only Blood aura is still fine for now... It blow my mind, why this class is treated so badly, the devs that are responsible, deserve to suffer, and not well as we DKs do.....
idk I took combat to 2800 last cata. its burst is the highest in the game out of any class. requires very little setup and is prob the easiest melee to get into 2k with. a blanket silence by a spriest or mage into a cheapshot smokebomb and killing spree will 100-zero any class that has no immunity. it can do 30k dps openers in pvp in a few seconds. even with warriors shield wall you can open and land a kill with 3 buttons.
Reading stuff like this makes me angry lol as a warrior player. No matter what I do I can’t kill anything in seconds by myself. Much less only using 3 buttons. Lol
But u are playing support class so whats the problem? I play monk cause i love big burst 1shots. In cata im looking for ret cause i wanna to be some sort of off-dps playmaker. Just choose class depending on what ur playstile is
Resto druid is the hardest to play in Cata 😂 damn i must been a good player then. I cant count how many arena games my resto druid and rogue had in cata classic arena that timed out after 40 min 😢
I would have signed up for skillcapped but there isn't nearly as much detailed courses as back in the day. Unless I'm blind or your website isn't very good, I don't see any matchup based walkthroughs. Just general information. That's what turned me away for subbing again.
"leftover specs we really wouldn't recommend for PvP" bruh listen destro isn't THAT bad in Cata 😭😭😭 I mean yeah it's kinda shit but you can play it if you know what you're doing 😭😭 gotta master that control factor though bruh
In the end does not matter, how good someone is, if their class is flaming dumpster in pvp... And that is the case with Frost DK after Legion... A person will be only as strong, as their class/ spec is... How i know this, well is more then simple... Back when i was still new in WOW in MOP/ WOD ( i started in TBC, but still in MOP and WOD i was still new player), i did kill most people with ease as Frost DK.. These days im soo much more skilled, and yet i struggle with about everyone, the class/ specs is just BAD AF, and cant compete with other classes in pvp properly, no matter if the enemy player is way newer and ignorant compared to me..
Destro is bad. It has damage but so what if Affli outperforms it by far. This expansion is about sweats and private server andy's playing meta, nothing else matters here.
@@themobster7284it’s circumstantial. I ran eleShaman/ShadowPriest/HolyPaladin to gladiator in Mists of Pandaria. You didn’t see another ele shaman at ANY RATING close to us. It’s about team comp and skill combined to make the best of your spec . Also surprise factor is huge, and enemies underestimating you when you run a taboo spec/comp.
They need to Buff Arms Warrior and make the wrong Nerfs right did you ever play Arms Warrior and hit something with alot of Resilience,Armor etc you do actually ZEROOOOO DAMAGE!! It affects nothing as much as Arms Warrior Dps when your a Class with Armor,Dodge,Parry etc its super hard to kill anything its actually impossilbe to kill certain Classes in this Game..
Arms warrior was broken is wrath, the nerfs was 100% right. Its a reason why people changed to arms in wrath and gained rank thy didnt deserve, and on top on that it was the easiest class to cheat and use script on. wich means the class had no skills compare to other classes, you just won by default.
@@Reality-Distortion Brotha learn to difference between Season 9 beginning with 2.8-3k Resilience no Weapons not even Honor Weapons and S10,S11 with 3-4k Resi 50% Physicall Dmg Reduction 20% Passiv Pet Dmg Reduce from Lock with Earthshield from Shaman they become unkillable..
@@Herogames2022 Right mate. I'll keep an eye for streams next seasons too, can't wait to see high rated warriors to loose to lock/sham of all things (spoiler: it will barely ever happen). Also why are you complaining about armor, warrior is one of the only 2 classes bypassing it. That's why every DK/heal wants to insta leave when they see war/heal on the other side.
Rogue was needlessly overpowered and now most of those douchebags are gonna run around with Vial and Bone-Link trinkets literally one-shotting any class. It's why this patch is not gonna last beyond 2024.
I would also say mage is the hardest caster. But for skillfloor i guess you can argue this way. Shadow has to do a lot more to be usefull. A mage can prob get 1400 (if thats the Skillfloor) by just pressing bolt, barrier, sheep and blink.
classic will never be the same as back in the days. now u have all the cheaters, like wintraders, bots n co. n everyone plays tryhard meta comp with 39538 addons carryn them. 0 skill involved. rating doesnt mean shit, specialy shuffle rating .
Unholy looses to rogues, rets, ferals, warriors and hunters. But only rogue feels like a massive counter, ret is hard because of fear spam on pets, the other 3 are more debatable, at least in s9. Ferals and hunters will get advantage in next seasons. Also BM is harder than MM because more dmg is physical. Marksman looses to enhance, affliction, balance, shadow and maybe ele. So basically any caster that can just outheal you and rot over time. Enh can dispell freedom, keep ranged slow 24/7, ignore slows himself and close gap on wolves with sprint and freedom quickly forcing detter. Out of the bunch only boomkin and warlock feel hopeless, since they just don't need to cast anything. Warlock can just go for insta dots and spam drain life 24/7. Moonkin has 2 defs, 6 sources of dmg all being instants, will fully hot during detter and can start on max range due to stealth which makes sneaking in hots even easier. Best 1v1 specs measured by having low amounts of bad match ups are sub and enh (yes, they are much better in 1v1 than arena), then slightly after them feral and mage (both frost and fire).
@@vaseknosek Ranged slow 24/7, slow removal from earthbind, slow reduction through wolf (noone plays Consussive Shot glyph), almost spammable range root, dispell for freedom, easily forcing detter on Spirit Walk, 2 root breakers. Enha doesn't need to rotate any cooldowns to close in the gap.
@@vaseknosek And you are just another defensive pissant with same go-to "you are x mmr" jab, making you sound like a teenager craving to sit at a cool kids table. 4 second disorients, one of them on a long cd, aren't anything you need to counterplay. No need to write about them.
I lost you at Rets has a lot of defensives, the legit definition of Ret in the dictionary is Wow character having the least defensives Cds out of every class. We have bubble, divine protection and sacred shield proc thats it. Our biggest defensive is actually our burst because it's the only time when we can do one big self heal. If you ever played Ret in 3s in cata, maybe 90%+ of the time you will need to bubble the first enemy CD cycle, leaving you dead basically if you cant do something before the second CD cycle.
@@so8060 and yet 99% of the sp would trade dispers for bubble in a wink xD Nah ret has way above average def cd and wod itself is just broken op, no wonder ret can allow triple dps to exist
@@AwesomeshadowSP Tbh any time there is a priest ret loses his defensive CD, idk if it's supposed to be a good thing. Btw you saying ret is the only thing allowing triple dps to exist is wrong, cata was also full of double frost mage rogue, triple mage etc... Not surprising knowing how broken mage is. But somehow when its regarding mages no one seems to be mad about it.
@@Reality-Distortion a good blood dk is crazy good in 2s, but not recommended in 3s indeed, unless you can stay at 50% hp and bait enemies on you the whole game
@@motherpigeon1582 You realize that using blood presence doesn't mean blood spec right? I just looked up the ladder, almost noone plays this troll spec on high rating.
@@Reality-Distortion 18th dk is blood, 24th dk is blood, 28th dk is blood and so on so please stop. Ladder also shows you talents and gear so yes I do know presence doesn't mean spec, thanks for letting me know.
You have to use macros for your teammates for skills like word of glory, hand of protection, hand of sacrifice and hand of freedom, also macros for the focus enemy for repentance, doing damage while healing and supporting isn’t easy, it’s the second most hard class to play
Warrior really takes a major skillcap hit in Cata. This is the beginning of the spam damage buttons and stack off GCD swifty oneshot nonsense. Arms may have been strong in Wrath balance wise, but it was also rewarded for higher amounts of finesse compared to this version.
how is warrior a major skillcap in cata? It was the worst cheating class in wrath bec it was op, a 1400 player could get 2000 with spamming 3-4 buttons. you will see the warriors go down hard in cata bec there is no skillcap to play it in pvp, if there where, the nerfs would not affect the best players, and the best players does not cheat, so basicly cheaters will struggle in cata ;)
@helloitsme9024 I dunno what you mean basically every class was strong in wrath, yes warrior was among the S tier but BALANCE has nothing to do with the skill cap of a class those are separate things. In some ways warrior is buffed in Cata but it's also simplified a lot (easier to play) and other classes just get buffed MORE. Originally in wrath I was not able to surpass 2400-2500 with most of my teams (although I didn't have access to PvE gear), but in Cata I was constantly beating R1s and blizzcon players on TR and would climb most new teams I made to 2650 or so within a couple play sessions.
@@posthardcoresinger its a known cheater class. R1 warriors cant be R1 without scripts. Maby a few can do it æ,but the class gets bypassed by default. Blizzard havent ban those warriors that even stream their scripts on Twitch. Its a joke tbh. The class is known as the cheater class in wrath,and it continues in cata. Tragic.
This tier list is full of shht... How ezz is to kill someone as Frost DK back in Cata ? Well is NOT, as the spec has NO insta stun, hungering cold is 2-3 sec cast, that any skilled player wont allow the DK to pull off, and it has only silence, that crap wont stop anyone from running, hiding, healing, or kill someone.. Also Frost had ALOT going on back in Cata like skilled DKs did shift presences, did use necrotic strike to stack heal absorb, and then destroy someone if possible, had no stun, had no mobility the UH has, and was weaker in terms of power... And ret paladin is one of the most brain dead class in pvp since forever PERIOD, the fact they can off heal someone does not mean jack shht, since they are mostly DPS and in arena there is healer, and in 1v1 u are solo.. Also where is fury war, another more brain dead spec... First is paladin, then is fury war, after that is frost DK and UH DK.. Seems u scrubs did not play enough these classes, so u came up with this load of crap.. Frost DK being ezz rotation wise, did NEVER meant, that the spec has higher chance of landing kills, compared to other classes... That was kinda true in MOP and WOD, where Frost DK was very strong... But after Legion the spec is total joke, and landing kills no matter 1v1 or arena, or solo shifle is hard AF...
Calling other people scrubs while you don't even understand what this video is about. Let me help you: It's not about which class is the easiest to get kills with or how strong a class is. It's about the skill floor of each class. They even explain it at the start of the video but you probably only skipped through the placements. So take a seat, watch the video and then edit your comment if you don't want to embarass yourself any further.
@@rex166 U bet ur a$$ i will call them scrubs, when they are wrong... I heard the beggining, and so what, what these morons state is not true... Gaeladin and fury/ arms war are, way more braindead then Frost or UH DKs... One of then pop chicken wings and can trash others and have full imune, the other have full mele imune die by the sword... If a class has 3 buttons, 1 button or 0 buttons did never matter, what matter is skill, and the balance in PvP... There is macros too, so 5 buttons can be made into 1.. Ezz class is the one that kill about everyone with ease, NO matter if the class has 1 button, or 10 period.......
@@nosferat5395 Was blood DK main, but that thing was gone after Wrath... Also better to be main frost DK, then main ret RETardin or DH >>>> Or UH DK that is undercover garbage warlock/ huntard wannabe >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
@themobster7284 m8 we get that you like Frost and think it's super hard. they made this list as it's the simplest spec to pick up and play passably.. perhaps it needs alot of skill to play optimally, but i think that's the same for many classes.

It affects nothing as much as Arms Warrior Dps when your a Class with Armor,Dodge,Parry etc its super hard to kill anything its actually impossilbe to kill certain Classes in this Game..
Arms warrior was broken is wrath, the nerfs was 100% right. Its a reason why people changed to arms in wrath and gained rank thy didnt deserve, and on top on that it was the easiest class to cheat and use script on. wich means the class had no skills compare to other classes, you just won by default.
Then why r1 in 2s with 2400 just couple days ago belonged to a warrior? Did his holy paladin do all the killing?
@@Reality-Distortion Brotha learn to difference between Season 9 beginning with 2.8-3k Resilience no Weapons not even Honor Weapons and S10,S11 with 3-4k Resi 50% Physicall Dmg Reduction 20% Passiv Pet Dmg Reduce from Lock with Earthshield from Shaman they become unkillable..
@@Herogames2022 Right mate. I'll keep an eye for streams next seasons too, can't wait to see high rated warriors to loose to lock/sham of all things (spoiler: it will barely ever happen). Also why are you complaining about armor, warrior is one of the only 2 classes bypassing it. That's why every DK/heal wants to insta leave when they see war/heal on the other side.
@@Reality-Distortion Dude Rls is the strongest Comp in the Game and Rmp nothing even close they have the best Defensive Skills most Cc most Damage ..
btw weakauras were very well known even back in the days
They were nowhere near as common or refined
Rogue was on point tbh. Easy to pick up, very difficult to master (I'm talking top 1%)
Rogue was needlessly overpowered and now most of those douchebags are gonna run around with Vial and Bone-Link trinkets literally one-shotting any class. It's why this patch is not gonna last beyond 2024.
Hardest class to play? Fury warrior in PVP ;*
My guy sounds like a bad ass surfer dude
spriest harder than lock or mage is a big LOL
Elaborate
The tier list if total bs anyway... Anyone saying Frost DK is more ezz then Fury war or specially ret paladins, is ignorant, biased or insane...
@@goodquestion5939 Shadow priest is only good in arena when he can freecast or have the assist of a top tier fire mage. Otherwise you're screwed.
@@themobster7284 Frost DK is ez to kill in arena settings so why even bother playing it? This is 4.3.4, only meta sweats allowed.
I would also say mage is the hardest caster. But for skillfloor i guess you can argue this way. Shadow has to do a lot more to be usefull. A mage can prob get 1400 (if thats the Skillfloor) by just pressing bolt, barrier, sheep and blink.
You are missing blood DK
dont play blood dk
Damn is Assassination really that Bad ?
They lack shadowstep, so they're easier to kite.
Blood dk not even listed…. 😂
Mage and rogue always easiest. Cuz OP af
hah, yea right. I guess you never played those classes in pvp then.
np

Frost DK
Balance Druid
Medium:
Sub Rogue
Arms Warrior

SP
Hard:
Feral Druid

classic will never be the same as back in the days. now u have all the cheaters, like wintraders, bots n co. n everyone plays tryhard meta comp with 39538 addons carryn them. 0 skill involved. rating doesnt mean shit, specialy shuffle rating .
well, it was good that arms got nefed in cata, the worst cheating class in history of wow.
And how is your rating?XD
BM hunter not recommended? Lmao
best 1v1 specs...marksman/sub/feral?
what beats marksman these days?
what beats unholy?
Feral, sub rogue or blood DK
Unholy looses to rogues, rets, ferals, warriors and hunters. But only rogue feels like a massive counter, ret is hard because of fear spam on pets, the other 3 are more debatable, at least in s9. Ferals and hunters will get advantage in next seasons. Also BM is harder than MM because more dmg is physical.
Marksman looses to enhance, affliction, balance, shadow and maybe ele. So basically any caster that can just outheal you and rot over time. Enh can dispell freedom, keep ranged slow 24/7, ignore slows himself and close gap on wolves with sprint and freedom quickly forcing detter. Out of the bunch only boomkin and warlock feel hopeless, since they just don't need to cast anything. Warlock can just go for insta dots and spam drain life 24/7. Moonkin has 2 defs, 6 sources of dmg all being instants, will fully hot during detter and can start on max range due to stealth which makes sneaking in hots even easier.
Best 1v1 specs measured by having low amounts of bad match ups are sub and enh (yes, they are much better in 1v1 than arena), then slightly after them feral and mage (both frost and fire).
@@Reality-Distortion legend! ty for such a detailed response!
@@vaseknosek Ranged slow 24/7, slow removal from earthbind, slow reduction through wolf (noone plays Consussive Shot glyph), almost spammable range root, dispell for freedom, easily forcing detter on Spirit Walk, 2 root breakers. Enha doesn't need to rotate any cooldowns to close in the gap.
@@vaseknosek And you are just another defensive pissant with same go-to "you are x mmr" jab, making you sound like a teenager craving to sit at a cool kids table. 4 second disorients, one of them on a long cd, aren't anything you need to counterplay. No need to write about them.
I lost you at Rets has a lot of defensives, the legit definition of Ret in the dictionary is Wow character having the least defensives Cds out of every class. We have bubble, divine protection and sacred shield proc thats it. Our biggest defensive is actually our burst because it's the only time when we can do one big self heal. If you ever played Ret in 3s in cata, maybe 90%+ of the time you will need to bubble the first enemy CD cycle, leaving you dead basically if you cant do something before the second CD cycle.
That’s more than plenty of classes. Spriest has disperse
I'd trade bubble for dispers any day, dispers has 2min cd
@@so8060 and yet 99% of the sp would trade dispers for bubble in a wink xD
Nah ret has way above average def cd and wod itself is just broken op, no wonder ret can allow triple dps to exist
@@AwesomeshadowSP Tbh any time there is a priest ret loses his defensive CD, idk if it's supposed to be a good thing. Btw you saying ret is the only thing allowing triple dps to exist is wrong, cata was also full of double frost mage rogue, triple mage etc... Not surprising knowing how broken mage is. But somehow when its regarding mages no one seems to be mad about it.
*cries in prot pvp*
Lol bm hunter it s nuts you cant say you don't recomand for pvp😂😂
I would play dk if it didnt have such an ass sound design 😢
why no blood dk?really?
It's like C or D in 2s alone and F in 3s.
@@Reality-Distortion a good blood dk is crazy good in 2s, but not recommended in 3s indeed, unless you can stay at 50% hp and bait enemies on you the whole game
@@Reality-Distortion Indeed, this is why we have over 40+ of them over 2.2k rate ;D
@@motherpigeon1582 You realize that using blood presence doesn't mean blood spec right? I just looked up the ladder, almost noone plays this troll spec on high rating.
@@Reality-Distortion 18th dk is blood, 24th dk is blood, 28th dk is blood and so on so please stop. Ladder also shows you talents and gear so yes I do know presence doesn't mean spec, thanks for letting me know.
Bohoooo who the hell pvps on Classic
Ret pally is face roll let’s be real
You have to use macros for your teammates for skills like word of glory, hand of protection, hand of sacrifice and hand of freedom, also macros for the focus enemy for repentance, doing damage while healing and supporting isn’t easy, it’s the second most hard class to play
Glad they got rid of the monkey simulator cuz that would of been pretty gay to play against
Warrior really takes a major skillcap hit in Cata. This is the beginning of the spam damage buttons and stack off GCD swifty oneshot nonsense. Arms may have been strong in Wrath balance wise, but it was also rewarded for higher amounts of finesse compared to this version.
how is warrior a major skillcap in cata? It was the worst cheating class in wrath bec it was op, a 1400 player could get 2000 with spamming 3-4 buttons. you will see the warriors go down hard in cata bec there is no skillcap to play it in pvp, if there where, the nerfs would not affect the best players, and the best players does not cheat, so basicly cheaters will struggle in cata ;)
@helloitsme9024 I dunno what you mean basically every class was strong in wrath, yes warrior was among the S tier but BALANCE has nothing to do with the skill cap of a class those are separate things. In some ways warrior is buffed in Cata but it's also simplified a lot (easier to play) and other classes just get buffed MORE.
Originally in wrath I was not able to surpass 2400-2500 with most of my teams (although I didn't have access to PvE gear), but in Cata I was constantly beating R1s and blizzcon players on TR and would climb most new teams I made to 2650 or so within a couple play sessions.
@@posthardcoresinger its a known cheater class. R1 warriors cant be R1 without scripts. Maby a few can do it æ,but the class gets bypassed by default. Blizzard havent ban those warriors that even stream their scripts on Twitch. Its a joke tbh. The class is known as the cheater class in wrath,and it continues in cata. Tragic.
God I hate AI voices.
it's not AI lol it's Ezreal's voice actor from League of Legends
Nobody’s playing this
This tier list is full of shht... How ezz is to kill someone as Frost DK back in Cata ? Well is NOT, as the spec has NO insta stun, hungering cold is 2-3 sec cast, that any skilled player wont allow the DK to pull off, and it has only silence, that crap wont stop anyone from running, hiding, healing, or kill someone.. Also Frost had ALOT going on back in Cata like skilled DKs did shift presences, did use necrotic strike to stack heal absorb, and then destroy someone if possible, had no stun, had no mobility the UH has, and was weaker in terms of power...
And ret paladin is one of the most brain dead class in pvp since forever PERIOD, the fact they can off heal someone does not mean jack shht, since they are mostly DPS and in arena there is healer, and in 1v1 u are solo.. Also where is fury war, another more brain dead spec... First is paladin, then is fury war, after that is frost DK and UH DK.. Seems u scrubs did not play enough these classes, so u came up with this load of crap.. Frost DK being ezz rotation wise, did NEVER meant, that the spec has higher chance of landing kills, compared to other classes... That was kinda true in MOP and WOD, where Frost DK was very strong... But after Legion the spec is total joke, and landing kills no matter 1v1 or arena, or solo shifle is hard AF...
Calling other people scrubs while you don't even understand what this video is about.
Let me help you: It's not about which class is the easiest to get kills with or how strong a class is. It's about the skill floor of each class.
They even explain it at the start of the video but you probably only skipped through the placements.
So take a seat, watch the video and then edit your comment if you don't want to embarass yourself any further.
@@rex166 U bet ur a$$ i will call them scrubs, when they are wrong... I heard the beggining, and so what, what these morons state is not true... Gaeladin and fury/ arms war are, way more braindead then Frost or UH DKs... One of then pop chicken wings and can trash others and have full imune, the other have full mele imune die by the sword... If a class has 3 buttons, 1 button or 0 buttons did never matter, what matter is skill, and the balance in PvP... There is macros too, so 5 buttons can be made into 1.. Ezz class is the one that kill about everyone with ease, NO matter if the class has 1 button, or 10 period.......
Lul, we found the Frost DK main
@@nosferat5395 Was blood DK main, but that thing was gone after Wrath... Also better to be main frost DK, then main ret RETardin or DH >>>> Or UH DK that is undercover garbage warlock/ huntard wannabe >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
@themobster7284 m8 we get that you like Frost and think it's super hard. they made this list as it's the simplest spec to pick up and play passably.. perhaps it needs alot of skill to play optimally, but i think that's the same for many classes.
