… but can you spend 15 minute and fix the fenryr bug and maybe shave 10% off ret damage? Game is starting to feel pretty unplayable with all these BM cupids.
Hard to get hype about new things when the current game is such a mess.

Will they nerf stuff during the tournament or are we waiting until Thanksgiving 
Destro was looking sleeper OP during the AWC qualifiers.
Destro is also VERY good, but at least has more counterplay than getting PVE’d to death XD

Ngl I haven’t faced a single fire mage and thought “this feels broken”. I think that almost every time I play against ret/BM.
I feel like fire mage and boomy are p much on par. Like they’re both strong, but I don’t think either are glaring outliers atm. Just my opinion, though.

Just like I’ve said since Labor Day weekend, when somehow people were just taken aback with surprise that no tuning was pushed out over a major holiday weekend, I still think Microblizzavision has mailed it in on this xpac.
But if nothing has happened by Thanksgiving for sure it’s dundees since they vakay for the holidays until like the 2nd week of January for god knows what reason.
It’s definitely a harder class to play (especially since it’s kinda countered by hunter because RoS is nuts).
However, Firemage is absolutely CRACKED atm, especially with a rogue (and honestly probably war/feral/dh as well).
Every combust is unironically two healthbars of damage and meteor is 50% of your hp.
I guess it must be because I’m playing MM and demo, but even skilled fire mages aren’t seeming that cracked to me. It’s wild RoS basically negates their go on CD regardless if you’re in CC or not.

Always have been lul.
Between blur bug & smash bros immunity frames dh defensives are always insane.
Destro is also lowkey ridiculous & should be watched.

Yeah MM hard counters fire mage. As someone who mains MM and alts fire, I’ve experienced both sides of that coin lol.
MM kinda soft counters all clothie casters, ranged physical burst that can’t be kicked or kited. Fire especially tho, since as mentioned hunter can just ignore their combustion every time they press it with RoS, and then burst them down easily.

Whose playing frostfire or meteor???
Everyones on sunfury cus phoenix pew pew and more pyro pew pew
Meteor hits like 1-2 mil
Kalvish does but you’re right it got nerfed recently.
I mean i could see frostfire in very high rmp maybe but…
phoenix does more then comet/meteor and keeps on pew pewing so why bother since frostfire does zero dam outside of comet/meteor bust and sunfury just keeps cranking 2 mil+ pyros nonstop
Frostfire does not exist outside its cheeky meteor/comet bust window literally does zero dam and sunfury does more dmg the entire game, more dmg post combust and about the sameish in combust
Sunfury after combust ends gets bloodlust + spelldam buff and infinite pyro spam with hyperthermia.
Idk im not saying its not good but i dont think its anywhere as good as the real s tier specs atm. There is never a global in game where you dont feel the crushing pressure of hunters and rets and healthbar pingpong…
Fire ya can rip hard on bust and if ur left alone sure you can stream some dam into people but i dont think its anywhere near the giga specs in terms of healthbars exploding. Fire outside bust is like “this is fine” I dont think people feel overwhelmed at all by it lol
I just learned DH this week for first time since legion right. I pick up a demon soul get a reaper glaive proc and just randomly decimate people. If I got stuff coming up to allign with it, GG get rekt noob. Like my random reaper glaive procs into eyebeam chaos strike and blade dance feel alot scarier then my combusts without demon soul procs.
If you happen to have demon soul proc and essence break ready you just body someone for 50-60% of their hp randomly all game. Feelsamazing.
Fire doesn’t have any capacity to just rip anyone to pieces just by existing in any single moment of game outside cds the way DH does. Huntard specs do similar gibs like dH tho maybe not as impressive/consistent idk
but with hunters every game its rly hard to get a solid combust window thats not being shut down and reacted too.

I’ve seen both, but mostly sunfury and the phoenix also contributes 50% of your hp on a bust go XD
I agree that it’s not as oppressive as ret/hunter (nothing is). However, fire mage, destro lock, sp, dh, and boomy are all still VERY strong and would be a lot more prevalent if they just didn’t lose to ret/hunter.
And I think fire mage is the strongest of all those except maybe dh.
