Is that a hard fucking concept

bright stream
scarlet flame
#

okay bud

bright stream
#

he's talking about where he's focusing

#

like its fine

#

but you're basically just assuming the worst and giving someone a hard time over what amounts to nothing

#

because it doesnt jive with your opinion

mild thunder
#

?*

#

Stats vary in PvP

bright stream
#

but you didnt give him the right answer

scarlet flame
#

well he keeps ignoring the fact his pve min max dps doesn't matter in pvp

mild thunder
#

Pretty much always have

bright stream
#

you spouted stupid dogma

#

both of you

scarlet flame
#

so yeah im going to think the worst

mild thunder
bright stream
#

you applied no consideration to the specifics, no critical thought

mild thunder
#

Dogma? Holy shit

bright stream
#

man literally just asking you

mild thunder
#

Saying stats change priority on matchup is dogma 🤡

bright stream
#

"what stat does better dam?"

#

and you're like "SaTs dOnT maTTeR"

broken meadow
#

It's basic logic, optimizing stats does not reduce your ability to focus on other things at all. And if it's matchup dependant that still doesn't mean the optimal way is to ignore it. You simply have different stat priorities based on expected uptime %

scarlet flame
#

ive already said they both give basically the same dam

mild thunder
#

And yes, pointing out that hyper focusing on stats is bait for newer players

#

Is a good thing

leaden rune
#

can we all not spam people with people argueing

mild thunder
#

Because it is bait

broken meadow
#

And that's exactly why I clarified that I'm not a new player

scarlet flame
#

when is he 2400xp 15 years ago?

broken meadow
#

Literally last season

mild thunder
#

Shuffle?

bright stream
mild thunder
broken meadow
#

Look I don't care about your opinions here

#

Yeah I'm just going to get out

#

This is a pointless argument

leaden rune
#

in reality theres alsorts of diffrent things you have to consider in pvp stats,strats,rotation,cd trading

ivory ice
#

just copy meta build and pump big dik deeps on arms for hitting 4 buttons

leaden rune
#

and shit tons more

#

now stop compairing dicks and chill

bright stream
#

cause most pvp players dont care

mild thunder
#

Idk if I can give a more legit answer than “stats vary depending on situation, but most people balance haste and mastery” which is the stock standard answer in this channel

#

If you can’t comprehend that, take an iq test

leaden rune
#

staying alive is the most important thing the longer you live the more damage you do as you cant do damage dead

scarlet flame
bright stream
mild thunder
#

Who

bright stream
mild thunder
#

Arms doesn’t have breakpoints
You’re not carefully balancing x% haste to squeeze in one more mortal strike
The gap between haste and mastery is so minor that it does depend on other factors - matchup, uptime, armour, build etc. and most of that can ultimately be decided by preference

#

It’s genuinely not a hard sell

#

Simming yourself in PvP tells you next to nothing because you don’t play arenas like raid fights

#

It’s not scripted

#

You don’t have max uptime

#

You don’t follow a single rotation

#

You consolidate damage for more impactful burst

#

Etc

#

Crit sucks for arms but if I know all I’m gonna play is thunder cleave, I’m gonna take like 20% crit

bright stream
#

only some classes are highly dynamic, saying thats not the case is wrong

scarlet flame
#

the only 3s thats scripted is AWC and even then they make mistakes

#

arena is not scripted like pve is

#

and trying to pretend it is is disingenuous to people who dont understand that

#

especially now with how good some healers are you will literally never kill someone through pve damage alone

ivory ice
#

saying 3s is very scripted is a hot ass take esp if you're talking about warrior where if you get kited/cc'd the shit out of you, which can happen against some specs even if your smart, your "script" is just trashed

mild thunder
#

Is there CD trading? Yes
Is it scripted in such a way as is comparable to raid sims? Cmon

bright stream
mild thunder
#

Depending on your comp and rating, you should be generating so much pressure that you’re breaking scripted trading anyway

scarlet flame
#

and lets go watch AWC and see how many do the exact same thing at the exact same time 30 times in a row

#

watch 20 no lifers in WF kill literally moving the exact same direction at the exact same time over and over and over

#

then stand absolutley still to min max their dps on a boss that doesn't move

#

yup same as 3s

fallen spruce
#

just had some guy accuse me of win trading in 1700-1800 keks

scarlet flame
fallen spruce
#

sent me paragraphs of harassment and slurs lul

bright stream
#

The way that 3s is 'scripted' is things like cooldown trading, positioning, and target choices, and if you play enough games on the same class/spec with the same team - its very scripted in a similar capacity to raiding

scarlet flame
#

the biggest difference between arena and pve is that when you make a mistake in arenas you do things to dynamically change it to your benefit or move into a spot that doesn't cause you to lose a match

#

in pve you just die and reset from the start

#

its not even close

#

and you're the one throwing dogma around now lmao

#

the best target is not the same every second of an arena

#

you might not see every single CD

#

you might be on GCD when they use a CD

#

your team might not react fast enough

#

theres a million different aspects to arena

bright stream
#

IE based on the script

scarlet flame
#

nah you're dumb as rocks

#

cba

bright stream
scarlet flame
#

if the mage with all his CDS stands next to you and literally never moves are you going to go beat up the spriest or the mage

bright stream
#

thats only relevant in low-mid pve

scarlet flame
#

yup

bright stream
#

you literally don't know what you're talking about

scarlet flame
#

because WF mythic kills aren't people standing in the exact same spot

bright stream
#

in even basic mythic raiding,

scarlet flame
#

and moving from point A to B then back to A over and over

#

lmao

bright stream
#

those things are the baseline to play

#

rotation

#

and you rarely stand still

#

because the mechanics dont permit it

scarlet flame
#

rotation is exactly the same no matter what

bright stream
#

what makes it scripted

scarlet flame
#

the mechanics come out at pre-determined times

#

and they happen at the exact same time every time

#

in every single kill of the boss

bright stream
#

on top of mythic fights typically requiring mechanics be acknowledged via rotational changes

scarlet flame
#

so it goes from the same rotation to "when trinket is on do the exact same rotation":

bright stream
#

its very similar

scarlet flame
#

how many mythic boss fights are there that have 4 different mechanics that happen randomly every single atempt

scarlet flame
#

literally none of them

bright stream
#

the mechanic placement and targets are randomly asigned

#

and in some cases the timing of them

scarlet flame
#

but its the same mechanic

#

at the same time

#

and the point you move to is the exact same every time

#

no matter who has it

bright stream
#

so is evade just not evade sometimes whena rogue uses it?

scarlet flame
#

you can't evade in a stun

bright stream
#

oh he popped evade in round two, that's not evade! that's revade!

mild thunder
#

Do rogues always use evade the same way at the same time?

bright stream
scarlet flame
#

i can also choose to run away

mild thunder
#

Evading aggressively pretty pog when you can do it

scarlet flame
#

or attack the healer

mild thunder
#

Or just to push a win condition

mild thunder
scarlet flame
#

you dont evade at the same CD every time in every arena at the same time in the arena

bright stream
#

example

#

how many times

#

have you heard a rogue streamer say

#

we win next go?

scarlet flame
#

you mean the next setup?

#

that has more than 1 way to counter it?

mild thunder
#

Do I look like I watch rogue streamers? Also, how often do people say that and get it wrong lmao

#

That’s such a bad point

bright stream
#

at higher levels they get it right very often

#

which is my point

mild thunder
#

No, they get it wrong all the time

scarlet flame
#

id argue that they get it wrong more often than they get it right

#

tbh

#

so is it scripted that rogues fuck up their own setup kills

mild thunder
#

I ain’t gonna get baited into this tho

mild thunder
#

100% that’s scripted

#

Because rogues are retardded

scarlet flame
#

yeah they are about as dumb as this guys takes

mild thunder
#

My feral cloning my explosive shot is also scripted

#

Unironically

scarlet flame
mild thunder
#

If all your watching is RMP, RMP, RMP, RMP then I can maybe slightly understand this take a little more

#

But that’s the minority of arena games

deft wharf
#

imagine actively wanting to watch rmx

mild thunder
#

As jungle, there are tons of times where we just make plays for pressure

bright stream
#

the script in PvE is that there are timings that the boss/encounter uses X ability, where the raid team has to respond with Y cooldowns. (This varies heavily on raid composition - similar to arena comps)
the script in PvP - 3s in particular, is that you trade cooldowns against other cooldowns, and swap targets based on those cooldowns and positions. This ends up extremely refined at higher ratings, and particularly for certain comps.

mild thunder
#

Wild ahh plays for pressure

mild thunder
bright stream
#

be real with me here

#

RMX is literally the most played comp in arena history

#

and its highly scripted right?

scarlet flame
mild thunder
#

In recent seasons? Definitely not

#

This is a “I only watch awc and never play arena” take

bright stream
#

recently less so, but historically I thinkit is by a fucking mile

scarlet flame
#

every warrior retals at the exact same time VS every single DK

deft wharf
#

Historically maybe 10 years ago

mild thunder
#

Even when RMP is super strong it’s usually not king of ladder

bright stream
bright stream
mild thunder
#

Because why sweat playing RMP when you can play ret/warr keks

scarlet flame
#

but its scripted

bright stream
#

but it doesnt detract from what I was getting at

scarlet flame
#

so the #1 comp beats every other comp every time

#

because its scripted

bright stream
#

which is that the way RMX is played, and spoken about is often described as scripted by players

mild thunder
bright stream
#

so is it not that unreasonable to apply the same logic to other comps that do similar things?

scarlet flame
#

yes it is unreasonable

#

because if its scripted you wont beat the #1 comp

#

no matter what you do

#

because its scripted

mild thunder
bright stream
mild thunder
#

So yea it’s unreasonable

scarlet flame
#

it doesn't

bright stream
#

some comps cannot beat RMP consistently

scarlet flame
#

because the #1 comp still loses to comps it shouldn't

#

because its not scripted

bright stream
mild thunder
bright stream
#

not if it is or is not scripted

scarlet flame
#

if you beat the script its not scripted

#

thats not how it works lol

bright stream
#

no

mild thunder
#

Do you think most arena players go in with a script into RMP?

bright stream
#

a script in gaming is a technical term and has a precise meaning

scarlet flame
#

yeah like pve

scarlet flame
#

where it all happens exactly the same every time

mild thunder
#

Idk what to say then LOL

scarlet flame
#

whats really wild is you can say this but 2 rmp games can be vastly different in how they play out

#

with the same players no less

bright stream
mild thunder
#

I’m tapping out

#

I’m gonna be polite and not respond

#

Mashallah

scarlet flame
#

you can go watch AWC where people play the same comps into the same comps and win or lose differently lmao

bright stream
#

you'll see things become very scripted

gaunt notch
#

hit 1800 the first week in solo queue this season okayge

scarlet flame
#

well i can go watch liquid play GG and win and lose in totally different ways each time

gaunt notch
#

..normally i would be done for the season but i want the mount

gaunt notch
#

im only 12% done with it..

mild thunder
#

Nice man gz

bright stream
#

players/classes/arena the same?

scarlet flame
#

its game 1-200 that they all play differently

bright stream
#

or that theres an infinite skill ceiling in wow

#

both of which are interesting takes

scarlet flame
#

thats why its not scripted

#

because its played out differently every time

#

with the same players on the same comps on the same maps

bright stream
mild thunder
scarlet flame
#

bro you need to lay off the anime

bright stream
#

lol

mild thunder
#

Me discovering the script

#

(I’m learning in real-time)

scarlet flame
#

right blizzard coded the script the players are just figuring it out

#

i blinked 2 seconds earlier than last game gotta restart because of the script

bright stream
scarlet flame
#

my finger moved .2 seconds slower than last game

#

time to reset for the script

#

if it changes every single match its not a script bud

mild thunder
#

Why can’t my fellow aussies be as based as me? Why they gotta give bad takes all the time sadge

bright stream
#

just like in raiding how the 'script' is not actually just the coded sequence of events, but rather how the raid responds to them

scarlet flame
#

no 2 people respond to an opener the same

bright stream
mild thunder
scarlet flame
bright stream
scarlet flame
#

wild mine doesn't get disarmed

#

they must not be following the script

mild thunder
#

Skill issue

#

Bladestorm next time

#

Learn the script

bright stream
#

lol

scarlet flame
#

just trinket it

mild thunder
#

Line one of the script is play arms

#

You already failed

bright stream
mild thunder
bright stream
#

so my script is to check if I need to heal

#

and then I trinket it

mild thunder
#

Wait, you’re dk disarm doesn’t even do anything lmao

scarlet flame
#

and it plays out exactly the same every time after you check if you need to heal and then trinket

bright stream
#

but it used to be important

#

and it still prevents deathstrike

scarlet flame
#

i just retal so you can't DS me

#

no pont in disarming

mild thunder
#

Also you’re a dk

mild thunder
#

Just DnD them out

#

Why you getting opened on

scarlet flame
bright stream
#

lol

scarlet flame
#

whos script is right tho

#

what if another dk says differently and hes a higher rating

#

is your script just wrong

bright stream
mild thunder
#

I write the prime scripts

#

What I say goes

scarlet flame
#

so if no one knows the script then there are no scripts

bright stream
#

no

#

the script is the optimal play for a matchup

#

just because my version of it is not correct

#

doesnt mean it doesnt exist

#

or that I dont have one

scarlet flame
#

the absence of evidence is proof of nonexistence

bright stream
scarlet flame
#

your inability to prove evidence other than anecdotal skepticism is not real evidence

mild thunder
#

Lol

bright stream
#

anecdotal skepticism

#

I don't think you know what those two words mean

#

because they're utter nonsense together

scarlet flame
#

i dont think you know what script means

#

cause what you're saying is utter nonsense

mild thunder
#

I just wanna know how any of this justifies simming stats for pvp lol

bright stream
bright stream
scarlet flame
mild thunder
#

and then you started this diatribe

bright stream
mild thunder
#

Even keys are hard to sim for lmao

#

And bro wants people to sim for arenas

bright stream
#

my language was specific, but I can precisely define terms if you like

scarlet flame
#

and usually the same exact person uses the same exact CD for the same exact mechanic at the same exact pre-determined time in every single fight

#

you dont have people ask if they can use the CD

bright stream
scarlet flame
#

they say "x use cd for y in z time"

bright stream
#

tanda

scarlet flame
mild thunder
scarlet flame
#

just like in raids everything is already known how it will play out

bright stream
#

or raid compositions

#

or dynamic buffs

#

sure

scarlet flame
bright stream
scarlet flame
#

and some mechanics are literally only for ranged or melee

mild thunder
scarlet flame
#

so you'll never have a melee who has to run to ranged or the other way around

bright stream
#

generally speaking

scarlet flame
#

so ranged generally speaking dont give a shit about most of the mechanics

mild thunder
#

Thats not mythic raiding lol

scarlet flame
#

because its not for them

mild thunder
#

That’s all pve

bright stream
scarlet flame
#

highly varied of the top specs only

mild thunder
bright stream
mild thunder
#

And no, most prog guilds also run very particular team cores

bright stream
#

because otherwise tanda will complain about it

bright stream
mild thunder
scarlet flame
#

ill complain about it because you say "CD trading is scripted" but refuse to accept that CD trading is to broad a term to define scripted content

bright stream
mild thunder
#

High arenas like what

scarlet flame
#

because you dont have to CD trade every time with the same CD at the same time

#

like in raids

#

where you CD trade the exact same CD for the same mechanic in every fight

bright stream
scarlet flame
#

and you refuse to accept those are two different things

mild thunder
#

Not in arenas

bright stream
#

I was around the same rating in 3s before I didnt have time or it

mild thunder
#

Cap

#

Also fr if you have time for shuffle you have time for 3s

#

Do better

#

Shuffle must die

bright stream
scarlet flame
#

i like shuffle madge

bright stream
#

3 games a day, work between queues

bright stream
#

and I know this will give you an aneurism - because its more dynamic and less scripted

scarlet flame
#

brother whatever you're cooking in that pressure cooker you call a brain is fried beyond measure

mild thunder
#

Dude in the nicest way possible, cause you’re being a prick and telling everyone they don’t know what they’re talking about - you haven’t played high enough rated 3s (especially recently) to have a valid opinion and act this way

mild thunder
#

Even between seasons how repitive/scripted/predictable 3s is changed because of meta - SL was probably way more scripted then DF

#

TWW may be more or less predictable than arena is now

bright stream
#

coupla things

#

your opinion should stand on its own merit, you shouldn't have to 'pull rank' to validate your opinion

bright stream
#

you and old mate both had plenty of comments at me before I gave you a hard time

#

and
I also beat you on the pissing context of expertise and experience

#

you could be R1 in wow

#

and I would beat you on the pissing context

scarlet flame
bright stream
#

it means that I've got qualifications and professional work experience that mean I win the pissing contest

scarlet flame
#

who said you won anything

mild thunder
scarlet flame
#

if its just you saying it who cares you're a nobody

mild thunder
#

Plain and simple

bright stream
scarlet flame
#

okay well your opinion doesn't matter because you're dumb as hell hows that

#

and thats not him saying you won anything either

#

thats just you making things up again

bright stream
scarlet flame
#

must be the script

bright stream
#

the mental consistency of sun baked milk

scarlet flame
mild thunder
#

Some boomer twice my age trying to flex work history in a wow server

bright stream
scarlet flame
#

homeless bums are R1 and you're not

mild thunder
#

Tbf it wasn’t because you’re not high ranked, it’s because you don’t have experience playing the high rated 3s you’re talking about

bright stream
#

thats usually the top 1-2%

scarlet flame
#

2400 isn't 3k+ where you're talking about

mild thunder
#

Yeeee

bright stream
scarlet flame
#

just like someone whos been 1400 isn't going to know what 2400 arenas are

bright stream
#

it starts much earlier than that and gets stronger over time

mild thunder
scarlet flame
#

those goal posts aren't even in the ground huh

mild thunder
#

And mostly RMP

#

Which is not comparable to 2400

bright stream
# mild thunder And mostly RMP

I used RMP as an example, and I responded to your/tandas comments about AWC, and provided context once on AWC to exclude it

mild thunder
#

Unless you’re versing RMP

#

It’s a lot more scripted

bright stream

bright stream
scarlet flame
#

it was unprompted

#

doesn't matter at all speaking about a video game

mild thunder
#

Shit I didn’t play a single game predictably last season, I’m just doing shit for pressure

#

Do I miss trap? Who cares

#

Do I land trap? Who cares, it got broken anyway

scarlet flame
#

might as well not throw trap and just pve dps because that matters more

mild thunder
#

Can we clone? Cool, let’s swap for no reason

#

Oh never mind we killed the rdruid in a stun

mild thunder

My favourite tho

Is when I pre-silence with chimaera

Because I’m 10 steps ahead

oi @scarlet flame @mild thunder because he rage bailed in R6 I gained rating instead of gaining nothing lmao

bright stream
fallen estuary
#

thats the reason why i advocate for healers to get nothing

scarlet flame
#

i dont think you frustrated anyone

bright stream
scarlet flame
#

i should give dk a shot too

bright stream
#

its super good/fun rn

scarlet flame
#

warrior been fun as hell so i haven't played my dk yet

bright stream
#

there's a bit of a game blockage in SS at 2100

#

lots of ragebails

#

so you'll like, win 2-3 rounds, and someone fucks off, you get ~5 points, do that a few times, and then get an unlucky lobby

scarlet flame
#

i dont think you should be able to leave a match

#

tbh

bright stream
#

feels real bad

#

the 150 rating they lose is fair in a way

#

but it should lead to bans faster

#

its also always fucking healers

scarlet flame
#

nah if you intentionally leave you should get 7 day ban from SS

#

and it doubles every time you do it

fallen estuary
scarlet flame
#

so eventually you're just perma banned

fallen estuary
#

last season i had talked to 2 gms and gotten action taken on 2 healers for intentionally griefing my lobbies

bright stream
fallen estuary
#

i was told that the one disc priest i reported had nearly 24 reports on himself and was currently being investigated

bright stream
#

they should have kept the report here for gameplay

fallen estuary
#

SS his name and text and goto blizzard website and submit the pic and your story

#

and wa-la

#

you might even get to talk to a elusive gm like i did

#

so yea

fuck healers and report healers

#

in s1 i had 2 sets of items 1 for pve and 1 for pvp i kept swapping them out all the time as i was dogshit to get any rank so always stayed at unranked upgrade thats why i had to kept swapping

#

in s2 i was bored and just stuck with pvp gear

muted surge
#

i mean, if you want to do pve you need pve gear anyway

bcs the stats are horrible on the pvp gear for that

urban skiff
# bright stream I find it helps me focus on work as well

I'm a project manager so whenever my phone calls it's 99% of the time an issue that needs immediate attention. Anything that isn't a hurry is always an email.

Also fully stocked homegym but picking up the phone while out of breath don't sound good so have to book bogus meetings if I want to get a session in during work hours

muted surge
#

Man i wish our „project managers“ would know what an acute problem Isa dm what not. I get way too many messages asking for shit that doesn’t require immediate attention from me

#

But everyone thinks that their shit is the only thing that matters :<

bright stream
#

but to date, I've had a single project manager that knew their shit, and didn't either actively get in my way and create problems, or do it through incompetence

#

non technical PMs are

#

in a word - bad

#

I did meet one guy who was meant to be a new PM for my team at the time, who got fired from the company for having opinions about what the family business c-suite could do to improve (was keen for him, he was sick)

#

lmao

pure hornet

So tuesday should i get weapon? Or complete 4 set?

Gala?

urban skiff
# bright stream but to date, I've had a single project manager that knew their shit, and didn't ...

I won't pretend to know much about what I do. My job entirely is to remove obstacles from the people who do the work. Sometimes that means breaking up a fight and sometimes it means getting out of the way and letting people do their thing and shielding them from repercussions of a poor decision.

Being a PM in construction business isn't fun and games. It's a herding cats in a place where adult people will lie to you and gaslight you right in your face even when you have proof they did something bad.

bright stream
#

and estimates are extremely difficult to provide

muted surge
#

The company i work for actively works against giving our project managers any technical know how.
1 girl even started studying again just to learn something technical . It’s so bad :(

bright stream
#

like the classic

#

"Why did this take longer than the estimate?"

urban skiff
#

I hate giving time estimates. I run like 20-30 active projects at once. It doesn't take a lot of unforseen issues to shift the upcoming projects weeks or even months. And when making district heating in a city that's over 100 years old, you rarely know what you'll find in the ground before digging.

bright stream
#

"its an estimate set without the development teams input - not a deadline"

muted surge
bright stream
#

and that shit enrages them

urban skiff
#

haha yea, both of you are right

#

I'm thinking about shifting into PM in production instead but I enjoy spending half my work day outside with the crew instead of being cooped up in a factory all day

#

I hate working in IT ngl

or the other one

urban skiff

#

when I was a junior the pm giving me shit for estimates I made that were off that he oversaw

#

and me being like, welp, you signed off on it, you're meant to be the lead dev and pm of the team, why did you approve it?

bright stream
#

and of course we've all got our areas to improve

#

but its really good

his first bit of feedback to me was "stop speaking in meetings, I can't understand you and you sound stupid"

yo @sharp meteor you got a pvp build for fury 2 set

But yes, nothing beats DH and Uh dk in terms of broken right now

I would also throw boomies there, the reason boomies are not broken is because dh and Uh dks shut them down

elder island

demo definitely up there

#

on the rise

river walrus

Demo is sleeper

DH and Uh are good against casters, that's why we can't tell yet

what pvp ilvl does the vault drop or is it based on rating

#

and if so what rating correlates to phat gear

calm lichen
#

Vault drops conquest gear, which is all the same item level in PVP. Your rating only correlates to the mog that comes from the vault (unrated vs elite).

scarlet flame

You say top 3 and then show a list with 4 above it.

pine pine
#

2 of those are healers?

pine pine
#

they only pointed out dps??

#

they said uh dk, dh and arms are all busted

#

tf

elder island
#

also, again, look at the numbers

#

there's 3x the amount of dhs

#

than arms

pine pine
#

and arms is still 2x basically every other dps do you not understand math

elder island
#

apparently you don't

pine pine
#

if 2x the arms players are high rated than the majority of dps specs, it's a step above them. So is DK. So is DH. All 3 are likely to see nerfs

elder island
#

You're trying to compare a spec that is in line with several others vs one that is 2.5x the next highest.

#

That isn't even the same discussion.

#

Look at the 3 specs below arms

#

and the 3 specs above

#

and then look at DH

warlock and moonkin, also broken af right now lol

but dont forget taht arms players usually dont fotm, there are always teh same good players

spice hornet

?

warriors have the lowest shuffle rating across all classes

#

highest warrior is 2252 or somethign

#

despite being one of the most played classes in the game

#

every other class has people at 2400+ except 2, those 2 are still like 2350+

i am talking about shuffle

warriors do extremely well at the high end of shuffle lobbies rn

leaden lynx
#

finally popped, 0 point change 3-3. druid healer just lost every match T.T

bright stream
#

I strongly suspect we're not seeing more because DH in particular is an easy swap for the rerolling crowd

spice hornet
#

how can that be when the highest warrior is 2260 and there are lobbies of 2400+?

bright stream
#

high end lobbies are 2200+ rn, thats the top 1-20 people of each spec

#

in many cases

spice hornet
#

lol ok

#

there are 10 DHs above 2400 alone

#

so

bright stream
#

and there were not 10dh above 2400 even 12 hours ago

spice hornet
#

healing specs have higher ratings over arms

#

so

bright stream
#

like yes, war is not as strong as DH/DK/the other overpowered specs

#

but it is extremely good

wheat jay
#

yall still cappin about shuffle?

#

1st week of the season?

spice hornet
#

warrioor is not an aamzing shuffle spec. its not bad, but its not the best

bright stream

its A tier

#

straight up

spice hornet
#

mine is 2180 mmr waiting on 35min+ queues so?

wheat jay
#

warrior is a great shuffle spec

#

you gotta be smoking crack to think otherwise

spice hornet
#

i guess we're gonna ignore r1 shuffle cutoffs for warr dps specs always being couple hundred rating lower than other specs :/

wheat jay
#

ye cuz every warr is pushing 3s

bright stream
wheat jay
#

cuz 3s are fucking free for warrior every season as well

spice hornet
#

specs like boomy say hello? guiess warrior is the only spec that can't find time to queue shuffle

#

not saying its bad. its prob the most unenjoyable shuffle dps to play. can't make as much impact as classes that can spam CC or close out games easily on their own

sharp meteor
bright stream
#

shit can be strong and not feel good to play at all

spice hornet
#

but thats the conversation i am having

bright stream
#

I don't think you were making that clear - but it happens

#

war always feels bad to play when you've got a missmatch of healer skill to your own skill

#

you kinda need a good one strapped to you, its like you're being held hostage by the dispel button

#

and its less of an issue with the new shout glyph, and with double storm

#

but still

wheat jay
#

Literally everyone rolled dh

#

Its crazy strong and super fun

mild thunder
#

You have two bladestorms, banner, 2 charges, leap, intervene… warrior is not held hostage by dispels

#

It’s not vanilla anymore, guys

#

Trust me, rogue and dh get way, way, way more cucked by roots than warrior has for quite a while

spice hornet

gnome arms warr never sit roots ever

its not vanilla but you get cuked just as hard VS 2 people with CC

we're just going to ignore how DK and shaman are super popular classes ig
