2vs2 annyoing setup

Post by ulven »

Me disc priest playing with a sl/sl wl, got 24-13 in stats ALL losses are vs healing priest/rogue, we never lost so far vs other combo..

first question...
how come we allways meet priest/rogue combo ?? major unluck or ?

how do we beat them ?
feels like i need to heal wl more than priest need to heal rogue & then priest can mana drain me more then i can to him

Consider it your anti-matchup (at least one of them...).

Priest/Rogue is 2nd most played combo in 2v2... after Warr/Druid... and quite a good one aswell.

Talk about anti-matchups as Warr/Priest though :roll:

In PvP, combo > skill/gear ..

Myeah every setup have at least one counter,,, most have more. Id say drain that preist as fast as possible and have the rogue feared as much as possible, when the preist is drained put the felhunter on him all the time (be ready to heal felhunter also)

most played setups can be seen here > http://www.sk-gaming.com/arena/2/all/all/all/all/

Rogue > lock that's why it's anti-setup. Fearing the rogue doesn't work since he will have fear ward, will interrupt your cast if he's any good and still get dispeled by the priest if he's any good. The rogue usually has no problem keeping the lock away from the priest (crippling) and also reduces the healing done on the lock (wound). Eventually when the lock is half hp at some point the rogue will blind you and before you can trinket and do anything about it he will be dead. It's just because rogue > caster that this is very hard to beat if they both have a healer.

Usually the rogue will be AR/prep, what you have to do then is keeping the rogue cc'd when hes using AR so your partner takes less damage. Unfortunately this is not that easy. Usually I use Pain Suppression the first time, but the 2nd time it's usually gg :/
Moo! Happy now?

how come u always meet the same nightmare combo.. as i said my disc priest/wl we had 27-18 stats (17losses was vs rogue/priest) that means almost 50% of all the games was vs that combo!!!

then i started 2vs2 with my rogue & a resto druid, we had like 19-2 until we meet warr/druid... & guess what... now we have 20-14 all 12 losses are vs warr/druid...

this cant be unlucky or ? why u always meet same combo u cant beat ?!?

It depends also what bracket you are in, for example 1700-1800 rating there is a majority of a certain combo. So its all about getting past that and enjoy the imbaness of your combo :)

Consider yourself lucky, all we meet in our battlegroup on higher rankings is warrior/druid or lock/druid ... and rogue/druid ... and <insert any class>/druid :c
God i hate druids

reminds me of the combo, Jobby & Shambler true old pvp combo of a warrior and a druid.
