Ret is ruining this game

There is no point in trying to reason with this guy, he is just talking in circles now. Thinking his class is breaking the meta with their OP Lore and animations…

He knows his class is OP

Correct, those aspects were nerfed and some of it are no longer broken. Judgement dispels are fixed. Ret survivability is in a good state. Your damage during immunity is the only thing remaining. That’s the elephant in the room that everybody knows is the problem.

Okay so that I agree with. Grant bubble a damage penalty like it used to have.

Bop and bosw I don’t since they’re not blanket immunity. Like using bosw against a war lock team only helps by half.

That being said…

It’s rare that rets use bubble offensively, at least at higher rating. You’re taking a big risk doing that so you better be sure you’re gonna land a kill.

So that’s why I don’t think it’s that much of an issue, though I’m not against it

I know my class is balanced.

It’s over represented since it’s well balanced combined with the best warcraft lore and animation.

Don’t underestimate class fantasy when it comes to representation.

I am pretty sure rets at your 2300 RSS rating are not a problem for frost mage. Your skill issues are. But it is always easier to blame something else, than to admit you need to improve.

Should have told Gelu in 3100 lobby (after the first wave of nerfs, before jotp nerf), that his frost mage was weak.

The fact that I need to improve is not the reason 2 of every 3 rated 3’s game is a Ret comp…

But name dropping someone who was in your RSS lobby is a real slick move. So do you guys hang out a lot then? Is he thinking about putting you on his AWC team?

Dude, just stop and use some nuance for a second.

.7 isnt that old. There are people still hyped about ret changes.

Some people probably rerolled instead of just fotm.

The class fantasy is extremely popular.

All this plus the fact that they’re in a good place means that representation is going to go up.

Ret has always had a high representation across wow because so many people enjoy the fantasy of a crusader and knight in shining armor. But it’s lacked in high rating since balance was lacking.

Now that ret is formidable in pvp then it’s gonna reflect in representation with everything I mentioned playing into account.

Again, this game is more than zeros and ones my dude.

Ret/War was a Tier 1 comp in all of SL for 2 years and we didn’t have these problems then.

Just stop and use some empathy for a second. The entire community is expressing that Ret is ruining their arena experience given how OP they are currently and the only people defending the class are Rets.

Are we playing in SL?? That’s completely irrelevant, I never said ret was lacking in SL.

No no no, keep your story straight. Your complaining about representation.

You’re just exhausted because of the damage ret did to the ladder at the start of .7. But ret is no longer in the same caliber as .7 launch, not even close.

But your still seeing lots of rets and you still seem to struggle personally against them, which you admit, then you come to the conclusion that they’re still not balanced.

Again, ret is just very strong. They are.

Could bubble get a damage penalty? Sure w/e. It doesn’t really matter at higher rating since it’s rare ret uses bubble offensively.

But you need to get used to the high ret population since the fantasy is the most popular in wow, simple as that

Look at WW. They’ve been in good places since mop. I think they were top tier in BFA.

But they’re still some of the least represented classes since monk fantasy isnt as appealing to players as compared to paladin.

  1. You don’t play 3s.
  2. Your highest is 2300 RSS as frost mage.
  3. I have seen lobbies myself at 2800-3100 where decent demo locks, frost mages went 6-0 vs tripple/double ret on first week of rework. Now it is a cakewalk for them in comparision.

He also thinks DKs don’t have a gap closer which is why ret range should be lowered back to 10 yds

I am complaining about the oppressiveness of the class and the damage it is doing to the meta.

Have multiple accounts

How do I have elite achievement on my mage? Mage isn’t even highest rated.

New Ret’s playing against AWC champions speaks for itself.

Ok you have elite, but your current is 2,3. You got me.

You meet many r1 players when you push higher than 2,4. But how could you know…

Frost mage + demo + healer is the way to go. Don’t send me gold, it is a free advice.

Stop complaining about the current meta.

The season is beyond repair. Season two should be better, hopefully

Do you know you’re a meme? Or is that accidental…

I am not a 2,3 hardstuck fmage complaining about the class i am supposed to counter easily, but i am simply bad and can’t admit l2p issue. Or am i?
Probably, thats how you become a meme, i suppose.

Yes. Disc got some massive nerfs at the same time monk and rsham got buffs. Rsham got nerfed, monk didnt get practical nerfs.

You are R1 cringe.

I will not be outdone that easily.

Why the hell is a mage crying like RMP wasnt the gold Standard for ez games carrying them to free 2k?
Or the fact Mage/Lock drops a lot of comps atm.
Also find it hilarious you say DK has no gap closer. Are you even playing the same game??
Did you forget double grip an Abom Limb?

You are seriously all over the place an posting pre 10.7 nerfs as ur justification is wild. My god man Mage has some of the best freaking comps.
Also totally unrelated question if ya dont mind? Did you post like this at start of season when Fury was an unkillable healing monster OR when DH an Dk were running over other ppl in RSS for a free 3k??
I’m gona go out on a limb an say no.
Did you complain when Rogue was 100-0 ppl as assassination where in people get full dots an died thru defensives?
