I once faced a hunter and disc priest and this hunter FD like 6 times he almost had me because on his player name it said he was dead and I looked again and the dude was up again and I was awh hell yeah round 2 BUT THIS time I killed him for good. God being able to FD multiple times is just … Yuck
I shouldn’t be helping you but FD and and roar of sac will basically guarantee you live every spear and you will have both CDs every spear. You don’t even need turtle.

You should have been around for Craven, you woulda hated it more.
Feign blocks damage for 1 second, Roar stops crits. Believe me I did this today in a shuffle and still died through on the second spear homie.
Arms is CRANKING right now, do not downplay the damage of Warrior. I am not saying remove the damn damage of spear. I’m saying remove the yanking pulling for 6 seconds straight so I can actually counter play it without pressing every defensive in my toolkit.

Then you weren’t getting healed and were probably already at low HP.
Arms is based around crit burst and roar neuters it.
I’ve only met two hunters that would FD so much. God it is annoying, I used to play BM quite a bit in and out of pvp and honestly it’s fun and not hard to kite. Just gotta know predictable moves especially like a warrior and what not. I recently got the MT appearance for my BM literally two weeks before they closed the mage tower. I heard it’s back in ptr tho.
How do I get healed during Sharpen?

I hate spear. Necro Banner and Ancient Aftershock were way more fun.

It’s 50%, not 100. And you’re immune to being crit during roar, there’s no reason you’d die to that alone with your kit. It’s a shuffle, like you said, people probably played like dirt. What else is new?
I’d honestly rather they remove spear and bring back Banner. There is atleast some counter play to Banner.

This is all we need to know about Spear. Being torn between dimensions till death with no counterplay.

Okay guys what’s the counter play to spear and bladestorm combo?
Dude I’m higher than you in shuffle as a Hunter, don’t assume I played like Dirt lmao. I ended up still winning 4 rounds. The rounds I lost were against the Devoker/Arms warr just blasted me in spear with Disentigrate hitting for 50k plus Sharpen on me.
Most rounds I actually won because the Arms zugged with zero thought process to LOS his healer.
How many times have I seen some poor healer get WW’d to death while a ROP bounces them against a wall without counterplay? Karma indeed. 
Still be great if they removed toxic abilities like Spear. I rather they give us a new ability or Iconic one in it’s place. Bladestorm in place of Spear be nice. Or something new.

So first off I never said you played like dirt, I said people. Could be your team mates, could be your healer. Could be you, idk.
It makes me said this is an unironic statement I’m going to have to hear from people nowadays.
So why are you so passionate about this? Seems like you’re not being zugged down with no counterplay by an arms warrior.
Also is that supposed to be impressive anyway? Hunters are doing about the same as warriors from what the rep shows. You’re not fighting against all odds vs my supreme meta spec?

Kidney shot, gauge, blind, evasion, vanish, dismantle hmmmm what counterplay indeed
