Disc Priests

PVP Arenas
1

After 24 hours:

-52% of healers above 1800 in solo shuffle are disc priests, with holy paladins coming in a distant 2nd at 14%
-38.5% of healers above 1800 in 3s are disc priests, with resto shamans in 2nd at 17%

Edit; after the first (almost) week of rated play, not much has changed, but the drustvar fotm chart really helps visualize the absolute chasm that exists between disc priests and other healers (especially in solo shuffle). 3s isn’t dramatically different, just shamans and pallies are seeming to find a bit more success there relatively

Disc has been brainless since the inception of shuffle, it’s literally a 3 button spec

im actually fairly positive that with gear Rsham is going to overtake disc, their cc and micro cc is so much easier to land and disc priest almost can’t land it in normal gameplay. Not saying disc isn’t S tier but i bet Rsham overtakes them

I haven’t even gotten enough gear on my mw, holy paladin or disc priest to queue shuffle yet.

sounds like unironically a good thing imo for queue times

Such a miserable feeling when your main class is fotm. Its like cool! But then you see all the rerolls running around with half your hp fresh from the reroll factory.

I don’t want disc to not exist, they’re an iconic og class, but it’s like once I got to 1900, every game is just going to 50-60% dampening now because teams with disc healers are immortal

Every other healer’s games are over before 30% damp

That’s something from classic we’ll never really be able to get back to.

Standing in the city, looking like The Man. Passersby pausing to right click inspect.

That feeling wasn’t everyone’s carrot but it sure was mine. I wonder what they could do instead, given the hyper-saturation of visual rewards and accolades.

Maybe they should of listened to Tuckbudford and given the Disc priest a stun, mobility CD and good mind games instead of half a dozen new fried throughtput interactions.

BTW as the game slows down more the longer this season goes Druids & Shamans will be very strong.

Strong players may choose mathematically strong specs. If they do, that combination is sure to provide results. Nothing wrong with playing off meta if you choose. Some tuning could help.
