#

depends bc some nodes will be locked

agile kite
#

Blitz is a lot of game knowledge. Shuffle I dont really play or am good at but it's the same concept. Sub is unique, it's about set up. Learning to do the burst is a huge part, learning to peel with it for your team mates etc helps a lot

#

But its hella fun in blitz

#

and honestly not that hard once you get the hang of it, just weird compared to every other dps spec

hidden moth
#

in ab if a node is caped it becomes locked and cannot change ownership for 45 seconds

agile kite
#

if you have generally good game sense in wow pvp, sub is a very easy class to climb with in blitz

lucid nimbus
agile kite
#

also mostly in nodes is less even about killing people in blitz and more just getting the cap

#

If you steap the base and can restealth, you will likely spin long enough for a teammate to help

#

steal*

lucid nimbus
#

spin is just denying cap right?

#

like playing simply to cancel them capping the node

agile kite
#

Yep absolutely

#

So on node maps, Arathi Basin and Deepwin gorge, the nodes have a timer and reset eventually

#

On other maps like Gilneas, the flag stays capped

lucid nimbus
#

How does spinning look for Sub? stay invis and CC them when they start to cap? Then try to re-invis?

hidden moth
#

u can do this

#

ideally if its 1

#

u let them cap for 2-3 seconds

#

then sap to interupt

#

let it fall off

#

then let them waste more time 2-3 seconds

#

sap

#

2-3 sap

#

2-3 blind (option but i would hold blind unless its 2 targets trying to cap)

#

from there u just do an opener on them

agile kite
#

@lucid nimbus Depends, mostly this will be split between two different types of maps. EOTS / Gilneas, the node stays for whoever has it. This means if you want to go steal a base, you likely go in, sap, them, go for base, they trinket, you blind. If theyre too far, you have to run to get cap after sap - makes it tricky, you can bomb this.

hidden moth
#

or zoom around the flag in a team fight spaming shurikens

lucid nimbus
#

what's stopping you from just sapping over and over?

agile kite
#

For node maps, Arathi Basin and Deepwind, every I think 45 seconds the flag resets, this means you can play to deny their cap or get your own

agile kite
#

Diminishing returns so first sap is longer, then smaller and smaller

hidden moth
#

if u cc an enemy they get dimishing returns on that cc

#

so first sap 6 seconds 2nd sap 3 3rd sap 1.5 seconds and anything past the 3rd they are immune

#

until dr timer ends which is 20 seconds + duration of cc irrc

agile kite
#

If I wanted to learn sub I would break it into 3 steps. 1. Burst rotation / set up 2. DPS outside of burst 3. CC'ing

lucid nimbus
#

ahhh so you're letting them channel some to waste time and then jsut sapping to interrupt until immunity DR, then swapping to blind

agile kite
#

then 4th I'd look at how to outplay on rogue in blitz

#

yes exactly

hidden moth
#

so a 6 second kidney is a 26 second dr timer where a 1.5 second kidney is a 21.5 second dr

lucid nimbus
#

sounds toxic, i love it

hidden moth
agile kite
#

a lot of blitz is just denying stuff too, so if your team has lead, just being a problem on the map for them to deal with is useful

#

ALSO youre not even bad on temple with orb if you take the shadowstep talent

#

and run around all game

#

ss pvp talent*

hidden moth
#

bc if its ab or deepwind gorge if u cap it they can only steal it for 30 seconds

#

unless its neutral

lucid nimbus
#

when playing nodes/flags what's the counter to us? laying AOEs to knock us out of stealth?

agile kite
#

depends on who is sitting

agile kite
#

so a hunter, will stealth, use traps by flag, then if you cc them - there pet can spin

hidden moth
#

ret pala will p diddy u into next reset

agile kite
#

so then the counter is going in, trying to kill them, hoping they use CD's

#

restealthing

hidden moth
agile kite
#

and trying to go faster than their cooldowns in another attempt

#

yep

hidden moth
#

unless its bm and they have a zoo

agile kite
#

On flag maps you can I think FC a bit at start, sneak past, grab flag, drop to your healer

#

you also can sit on their FC all game, triple sap, blind, make it slow for them to cross

#

and smoke bomb kill them with team

hidden moth
agile kite
#

honestly i dont even fc

hidden moth
#

yeah i try not to

agile kite
#

99% of the time i go straight for their FC

hidden moth
#

i just send it full on efc

#

unless im in a spot im near our fc and he is solo dolo and needs peels

#

rogue is great offense and helping peel for ur fc to get across

agile kite
#

@lucid nimbus if this sounds confusing, i promise you its rewarding and doable. its really not that bad to do

hidden moth
#

but imo rogue shouldnt sit with ur fc in the base

lucid nimbus
#

nahhh this is all tracking really well

#

peeel you mean CCing enemy and just leaving them CC'd while FC runs back to base

hidden moth
#

help em cross and stay on efc

agile kite
#

yeah rogue is a big support class if it wants to be

hidden moth
#

u get a cheap shot u get a cheap shot u get a kidney u get a blind u get a sap

lucid nimbus
#

yeah Rogue sounds a lot less like zug zug damage and more strategic

#

like actually playing the objective a lot more

agile kite
#

its the most objective based class i think in blitz

hidden moth
#

^

#

also

agile kite
#

for silvershared, offcarts are the way to go

hidden moth
#

if u wanna be toxic

#

kill efc in wsg or twin peaks

#

then rush their gy

#

sap them as soon as they rez

lucid nimbus
#

ahhhh and just keep them CC'd

agile kite
#

toxic tip #2, roll kul tiran and go for knocks lol

lucid nimbus
#

so it delays how long they get back to playing objective

hidden moth
#

sap, sap sap cheap cheap cheap blind restealth sap sap sap XD

hidden moth
#

u fucking off in their gy

#

but keeping their healer there

#

u effectivly traded 1 dps for 1 heal

lucid nimbus
#

would it be good to do taht to a solo healer regardless? since its usually 2 healers in a b litz

#

i figure it's ass playing without one of your healers

hidden moth
#

oh it is

#

thats why blood dks are getting death grip drs next season

agile kite
#

It kinda depends on the go, so if theyre swarming your FC you might have to go send it on EFC but most of the time being annoying is better than doing damage all game

#

because your sustain is so weak

#

so no cooldowns = not that much happening

hidden moth
#

bc they legit kidnap ur hpriest or disc priest and go to a corener of the map infinitly heal and keep ur healer in the corner

agile kite
#

also you can entirely disregard everything we said if you play assa

#

that shit is a warrior spec

hidden moth
#

depends

lucid nimbus
#

im guessing assa pumps damage more?

hidden moth
#

assa is team fight spec

agile kite
#

assa is like huge aoe team fighter yeah lol

#

aoe silence, good damage

#

its brain off in blitz

lucid nimbus
#

is sub's strength in being able to utilize invis easier or something

#

which lets you CC better

hidden moth
#

yes

agile kite
#

sub's strength is burst

#

imo

hidden moth
#

sub gets dance and vanish to access sap+ cheap

lucid nimbus
#

how does Sub use invis better, shadow dance?

#

i know you guys said Meld isnt' needed as much earlier but not sure why

hidden moth
#

where outlaw gets vanish which they can cdr

#

and assa only gets vanish no cdr

agile kite
#

think best race for sub is orc

hidden moth
#

meld isnt for sub

#

bc u have dance

potent pivot
#

race doesn't really matter for sub

lucid nimbus
#

makes sense

potent pivot
#

nelf/human/orc/whatever

agile kite
#

i dont even see race personally

hidden moth
#

meld is for assa bc ur whole spec is designed around coming out of stealth

potent pivot
#

assa and outlaw both have to play subterfuge

hidden moth
#

honestly for assa rn vanish is a stronger cd than death mark (assas 2min cd equivalent to subs shadowblades)

potent pivot
#

a lot of their damage revolves around subt

#

sub's does not

lucid nimbus
#

gotcha

hidden moth
#

bc subterfuge window on assa gives us aoe garrote and rupture, more cp build up on garrote 50% more garrote dam, anything we garrote is silenced and a damage done reduction , 20% crit chance increase (mostly skiped in arena but useful in bgb)

hidden moth
#

this is a match from last week

glacial steppe
#

does ass do better single target dammge thens sub

hidden moth
#

we lost but i toped damage at lava cart

glacial steppe
#

oh ok

hidden moth
#

assa has 0 burst

lucid nimbus
#

looks good to me

hidden moth
#

if u want burst u have to take kingsbane

glacial steppe
#

just for team fights it has better damage then?

hidden moth
#

and its dog water

hidden moth
#

assa is going to put insane pressure on enemy healers to keep people toped

glacial steppe
#

ok thanks

hidden moth
#

sub isnt going to put that kind of rot pressure on healers

glacial steppe
#

is it normal for sub to lowr on the scoreboard for damge in shuffle or was i just bad

#

i was always lower

hidden moth
#

sub is just going to cc the healer and put them in the cuck chair as they have their way with w/e unfortunate dps happens to be their victim

hidden moth
#

sub damage isnt about maintained high dps

glacial steppe
#

ok thanks

#

i still got the kills though

hidden moth
#

its about insane bursts of unhealable damage

glacial steppe
#

and got wins here and there

hidden moth
#

think assa rogue like melee aff lock

pale storm
#

they listened, looks way better

exotic dove

In another discord I am in a priest healer is complaining about Rogue in his lobby not pressing Deathmark on his team but presses it when he is on the Pres evokers team. LOL lets go if we get more complaints like that going viral they might do something

I dont know what mmr they are at though

jolly sierra

it will be funny af to read

cuz is a very dumv complain lol

exotic dove

It was in voice chat 😦

jaunty osprey

stoic spruce

Everytime he's in the AWC he's always on fdk getting a train ran on him

He does it

On purpose

How even when it's good

Fdk is bad

potent pivot

idk if im even gonna q again til next season

stoic spruce

i just wanna get out of 2200 but i am stuck, i am bad

exotic dove
#

No you arenot bad at 2200

gleaming sentinel
#

higher ranked on the ladder, but 200 rating lower. why does this feel so bad

lucid nimbus
#

Sub just runs 2 pc right?

stoic spruce
#

I'm ending the season with 0 shuffle rating and that makes me feel so good about myself

potent pivot
#

no

you can run just 2pc if u cba but 4 is good

That's cool

Is that for future trading post

potent pivot
#

it just says 11.2 i think

So they're hidden I imagine

Gotta find them

how tf DO I GET TEMPLE FOR 5/8 GAMES BROOOO

i shot myself in my shoe for that

I got 1800 bgb for the set and never played it again

exotic dove
#

Yeah I had to make Blitz my play for fun rated bracket my frustrations ended up insanely high last season. Anything serious I put into shuffle instead

hidden moth
#

i was in 2700 lobbies

#

now its 2200

#

bc of this dog shit map that assa is fucking terrible in

grave basin
#

Never take bgb serious

hidden moth
#

im almost done with stratigist

#

thats why im malding

#

bc like

#

how do i get 5/8 bgb as temple how do i get temple back to back to back

grave basin
#

Same as me getting 2x melee on my sp and 2x hunter on my mage

hidden moth
#

9 maps in bgb

#

thats 1/9 games should be temple not 5/8

exotic dove
#

If Temple is bugged and keeps popping let me play some Sub Rogue real quick

#

lol

grave basin
#

I wouldn't even bother with bgb unless it's playing sub

#

Sounds like self grief

gleaming sentinel
#

i love blitz on outlaw

exotic dove
#

Assa does work on maps like EOTS in mid great cleave there is a few others

#

But yeah Sub is king in BLitz

hidden moth
#

which is funny bc i run sub rogues fades all the time as assa

#

just temple sucks for assa so much bc if i get teammates who dont get orbs im useless

#

either i get orb and do absolutly nothing and almost insta die or i ignore orbs we get 0 points but i keep pressure on enemy orbs

lucid nimbus
#

Where do I start with learning the Sub burst window? feel like everything I'm coming across is hardly a guide and more of just gameplay

#

I assume the PVE rotation is different than PVP burst

stoic spruce
#

I really don't get the hype

potent pivot
#

rotations are all based on learning the priority of spells these days not really a 'set rotation'

lucid nimbus
#

Where would you suggest starting haha

potent pivot
#

make sure you're using bigdebuffs or something to track your stuns, don't leave gaps between your stuns during burst

lucid nimbus
#

I mean every PVE class has a priority and you can learn them through wowhead or whatever guides a creator has released, or to my knowledge at least

#

I figure PVP is different though

potent pivot
#

press cooldowns->strike->evis

#

strike evis strike evis

#

strike sec tech

#

its very easy these days

#

apply ruptures outside of dance where applicable

#

Nahj has a short on his youtube channel that goes over a couple burst windows but its a little old

#

it does 1 or 2 things we don't do anymore

lucid nimbus
#

I'll give it a look, old is still better than not understanding at all

#

I see people take Gloomblade but don't see anyone pressing it in any videos? is it a new thing or just something we take for unlocking other nodes?

potent pivot
#

its not new but not everyone runs/has run it

#

it literally just replaces backstab

#

doesn't change anything about your gameplay

glacial steppe
#

i was opending with cheap then bursting and cheaping when it about to fade

potent pivot
glacial steppe
#

ok thanks thats what i thought

potent pivot
#

you want to use the full stun DR

#

so 3 stuns

glacial steppe
#

when is a good time to use kidney besides on healer

potent pivot
#

typically anyway

glacial steppe
#

i struggled with that while hitting 1800

potent pivot
#

well it just depends

glacial steppe
#

like with kidney and smoke on kill target or do you just to the 3x cheap and smoke on kill target

potent pivot
#

so much these days is just situational

potent pivot
glacial steppe
#

ok thanks

#

thats what i thought also

potent pivot
#

there's just not really a set "always kidney X for X reason" these days

#

especially in like shuffle that shit can get out of whack

#

i'm not a huge blitz player so i honestly don't know the full ins and outs of blitz

#

if you're learning blitz i would go watch kalvish if u can catch him blitzing on his rogue

#

or weedtyler

glacial steppe
#

ok thanks for the tips

#

i got 1800 on hunter rogue and now im working on warrior after that i might do dh or try and get 1950 for enchant

# dark kernel I hit 2300 rating and like completely fell apart

I have 1 rogue at 2800 and another at 2600 and I still lose lobbies on the 2600 one despite winning lobbies 200 points higher. Its the lobby itself. If I queue into shit like frost mage, MM hunter, Dev, im not gunna do well. If I queue into melee cleave I will. Thats by far a bigger source of variance than rating bracket

Did you guys see that blizzard changed the skin of the S3 glad mount?

Its still not great but its definitely the best of this xpac so far

You think that because all of those classes synergize well with rogue but its not organized 3s there's no communication you have to win the game by yourself. No matter how high rated your teammates are you can safely assume that if brains were dynamite they wouldn't have enough to blow their noses. Those classes are incredibly difficult to win the game by yourself against. As an assassination rogue you want to queue into melee cleaves

obsidian moon
#

i could see it being a little aids on a big map Tbh, but from experience melee cleaves are the worst lobs ever , like ret/warr/ww just shits on you as a rogue

outer sky
#

Not on me

#

Idk

#

I farm melee cleaves

#

WW monk is mildly annoying but id still take it over most range

#

If there's an unholy DK in your lobby you 6-0 for free unless you get hard trolled

obsidian moon
#

Sure, dk is insane but cant remember the last time a saw a dk ngl

#

dead class

outer sky
#

Pretty soon Ivan will show up and tell me im wrong due to some small nuance thing im somehow not considering but I promise this is generally true

#

Basically you want to be able to cleave, spread dots, and cross CC as much as possible

#

If you're getting 40 yard triangled you just cant

frost mage in general is just pain to play against on any class

#

For instance I had a demo lock 2 days ago who never used their gate

#

At 2200 rating

#

Yesterday at 2150 rating, a warlock never even set their portal any of the matches

#

Adam h who cast one single polymorph in an entire six rounds of shuffle

#

I had a mage*

#

Healers have to work harder to get higher rating so I don't notice as many issues with them. Lots of them just don't understand a priority of dispelling snares on Melee

hidden moth
#

It’s when I’m sitting 8 second roots at a time dawg

#

At least snares give me the illusion of getting closer to them

#

the rogue walked toward the mage menacingly

That's what I meant root

I'm just distracted

Hunters and mages still die with det and ice block unused

#

Funny you say that, I had a fire mage and a lobby last night that I swear was trying to get his scripting to work

#

Because the first couple rounds he was like God awful, and then all of a sudden he starts pumping massive damage

#

But the guy wouldn't move at all. He would blink, but he wouldn't actually walk

#

He was role-playing a shadow priest or something

jaunty osprey
#

but moreso the healer

#

especially for assa rogue

#

does the healer know how to play with an assa rogue or heal an assa rogue

#

is the main factor

outer sky
#

Idk some shit is really aids

jaunty osprey
#

if they play max range

outer sky
#

But yeah

jaunty osprey
#

you can't win at all

#

if you're facing 2x caster that pulls back and your healer

#

just sits 60 yards behind you

#

you'd rather just alt f4

#

but ya, you're right - assa relies on teammates to actually play decent

outer sky
#

Yes I've been there. Ya know the black rook hold map? Sometimes what happens is there will be a lock on that map and usually we will be trying to kill him

#

But my healer plays way back

#

And if the lock is pressured he ports in the room

#

And I can't go after him

#

Which makes him unkillable

#

Because every time he feels pressure he will port and be just fine

jaunty osprey
#

ya

#

so it's pointless going him if your healer doesnt allow you to chase

#

and then

#

if you dont go him, your entire team is dead

outer sky
#

Exactly

#

And whichever choice you make you lose and everyone blames you

That's okay I blame me too

as sub do we tend to use kidney on off target/healer and use cheapshot on kill target?

let's gooooo

hidden moth

That’s why we don’t ct for single target unless ur going to get rup gar ct before vanishing and letting them rot in a 1v1

#

HOWEVER

#

if it’s say 1v1 vs bm hunter

#

USE CT

#

Bc the pets get hit, sure the ct hitting pets doesn’t do much to kill them and that’s not the goal, thing is bc u have ct on 5 enemy’s (hunter+ pets) ur ct now hits 2X as hard on the hunter

hidden moth
#

But generally yes

#

If playing rmp etc u can step kidney heal, into blind, letting ur mage sheep off

#

But in shuffle where drs are everywhere

#

U can kidney kill target
or use it as cross cc on 2nd dps if the healer is already stunned by ex. Hoj and use cheap on kt during burst

but

we went s1 -> s2 without any ASSA changes

at all

the stuff that got changed was pve only

Everything is scaled down

Not having a new MT would be a missed opportunity
