How is Shadow in PvP

Looking for a fun caster to replace my 226 warrior with, warrior is just boring and I wanna play a caster. How is shadow rn?

I love it. A lot of utility and pressure. I swapped my main to sp from dk after realizing how much blizz hates dks and never looked back.

I love it as well. You have nice constant pressure, with a very solid burst window due to CC and mind games.

Plenty of defensives which when rotated correctly can make you feel incredibly tanky (blow them all together though or use them incorrectly and you’ll get melted).

You will get focused a lot however depending on your partners, so that can take some getting used to. Often just not dying can lead to a win.

Great. I think mage better and warlock might be after this patch.

I actually find shadow priest to be surprisingly tanky with excellent duel capabilities

It won’t be. I assure you it won’t be.

Shadow priest leaps ahead of aff locks. Would take an overhaul.

My favorite caster. I have 2. I do great in bgs (who doesn’t though if they know there class?) Your biggest concern no matter the caster, is learning the importance of positioning and kiting after coming from a melee main.
