I finally did it!

I know this is probably going to be meaningless in such a crazy patch cycle. But, I just wanted to say that I finally go 2100 as prot pally! It’s my first ever 2100 in anything let alone arena.

I’ve always looked at arena and found it to be kind of intimidating and daunting. I played mostly rbgs before this. But now that I’ve started climbing the ladder and getting higher, I’ve noticed things changing. My judgement calls and reactions have gotten so much better and quicker.

I see why so many people love arena pvp and the playstyle of it. It really helps to hone your skills and abilities. Thanks to all the fish!

Oh and shout out to Sharkblader from Ragnaros! He’s one hell of a player and I’ve had such a blast!

Congratulations!

Always cool to see new people joining arena. Everyone knows the ladders could use more people

Could I ask what comps you played? What is prot good with?

Well, I just replied in Lumaca’s post over on the pally forums. He’s got a great guide there if you want to check it out. But from my experience, I’ve found DHs or Arms to the best partners for me. Their high mobility and extra cc’s really help round out our toolkits.

here’s the link to his guide: PvP Prot Paladin: The Guide by Gladiator Lumaca

Congratulations on your first 2100! First time achievements like this are always memorable. It’s not meaningless either. You’ve achieved something.

That said… Please considering swapping Ret or Hpal.

I’m disinclined to acquiesce to your request sadly. I find prot to be a lot more fun than ret and with a whole lot more utility. But thanks for the comments!

Gz on duelist man!!!

Been seeing a lot of prot pallies lately, might consider swapping to it to. Since its seems more fun that playing ret or holy.

Insane man! Now go for glad! If you want to watch any 3100 cr prot pal games check out my stream or msg me in game for questions.

Congrats

I mean he’s not wrong about prot having more utility

Dps specs used to have a lot of utility at one time and oddly enough arena was more fun then

Am I going to have to be “that guy”?

That abused spite trinkets with rogue/mage to gain rating.

Yes

Youre crying about sub rogue in bfa. While this guy is playing tank… what?

And there is video proof of me telling my teammates not to spite. But keep making stuff up i guess

You told them not to, at all?

Dam dude…

Grats. Been playing prot some as well. Surprisingly it does just as well as Ret even with a healer. Won 2.1k+ games the last few weeks for weekly win with a disc, rsham, and DH. The best thing about it though is it’s not at a giant disadvantage to most casters like Ret is. It has all the anti-caster tools Ret should have access to.

Dude you play a Destro lock. Literally shut up, you whiny man baby. This is why people hate you in every thread you’re in, you clueless, tone deaf dipstick.

Yeh but what you gonna do getting all upset over it?

“Whiny man baby”

Thanks for the words of encouragement. I noticed you on arenamate when I was seeing what all the top prot paladins were running with. I’m looking to see what 3’s partners prots are going with these days.

Salt sent me this after my first 2k in 2s.
