It seems everytime there is a arcane mage in the lobby they can run at mach 5 baseline and just blink off chains of ice 4 times in a row while also doing really broken damage.
Does anyone know what your supposed to do as a melee against this class?
Kill their partner. 
While they free cast cc on your healer and pelt you with their busted burst that doesn’t seem to work out well a lot of times.
Mage ends up doing 140k sustain dps though.
Okay, which leaves 1) hope that the mage mismanages their buttons and 2) perish
Sounds like healthy options for victory in a balanced pvp mode
Blink doesn’t break chains of ice.

typical mages blocking people
I haven’t blocked you though.
Chrono shift is stupid…but so is spamming arcane missiles every game lol
Edit: watching mages come out of the gate and start spamming 0 charge barrages for the snare is a joke
Fighting Frost/Arcane is like fighting The Flash…
It really is
Mages never block. 
They ice block a lot
I didn’t understand the change to no cd…
i personally love how people will constantly try to train me, yet never kill me and lose, then blame me instead of you know… hitting my partner and just CCing me?
chrono shift has been around for literal ages, its nothing new.
but yeah, the speed buff from master sheppard and blinking is new. Arcane was in the gutter for all of last xpac, and now that it is A tier, people are complaining about it. insane.
purge alter. purge shields. purge temp. kick our arcane school… idk what else to tell you.
And if you dont have a class that can do any of that then i guess… lose?
There is kind of only 1 class that purge as often as you need to for that to be effective and its shaman.
sounds like a counter comp then…
sorry, but not everything is supposed to be easy to stick on like glue and do your 123 rotation while doing 60k dps the whole time and anytime they run from you, you use a gap closer and just keep going at it like a target dummy.
