Funny part is this video could have done more damage to make it seem even more busted. So many 5% buffs instead of 15%. Doesnt use halo and in bgs that thing is a cranker. Etc
Itās purgeable and cool utility I donāt see a fundamental issue with it rlly
But I wouldnāt rlly care if they removed it
Sure, I keep it simple. I beat on them in full 411 gear and if their health bar doesnāt move through Sub burst and they continue to pump damage while not taking any they get on the OP listā¦
Once they get on the list I start scouring the interwebz trying to figure out why and if there is a way to counter itā¦ I have a complex system you see.

Hey, well you donāt have to worry about gfade anymore.
Its a bg, its pretty easy to spread dots now and there isnāt the same ramp time as it was before. Also, the mindbender is brutal especially if you are all stacked together.
is void volley the stupid horrify thing that essentially goes through trinket?
Yes. If itās enabled by any sort of prior cc, even a slow, then you canāt really dodge it, and it doesnāt DR. Thereās also certain spots where you can cause it to dump all its projectiles in the same location and blow somebody up.
Yes, rogues seem to cloak it

yeah on hills i love telemetry. I just try to bladestorm it. i did kill a shadow priest 1v1 yesterday on my arms warrior after asking if he wanted to group up to do some wq and he decided to dps me. called him cringe and sent him to the shadowlands, as holinka intended.
Kennie how do you play with being a tiny race and getting LoSād by rocks when you try to heroic leap?
Yes
I donāt really know if spriest is going to be crazy strong in arena, and if so, not because of what is making them scary in bgās. The dot spread/death build is monstruous because you can multiple that damage 10-20-30 times. But in arena spriest isnāt scary to dispel, so itās not likely to be a great build past challenger. I could be wrong, weāll see. PW:L is strong though no question.

Crazy damage, or durability?
Both, mostly crazy burst, good survivability despite the lack of mobility
I think their damage is going to be a lot less threatening once people start playing rated against them. Their damage is coming from death spread which hits all targets that have dots, if you dispel spam an spriest it castrates their damage. Not like dispeling a shadow is scary either, not like aff at least. Just canāt play offensively against shadow. Iām not saying one way or the other, but shadow seems pretty easy to counter in 3v3 scenario. Iām sure if rated releases in current theyāll be gods of rbgās tho.

What makes Shadow nuts is that itās like a 9/10 in every category.
It has multiple DRs of instant CC on short cooldowns, a primary offensive / AoE CC on a 1m cooldown, doesnāt really have to cast, Mindgames, very solid off-healing through VE and team utility with shields, Life Grip, Life Swap, Mass Dispel, multiple easy-access damage reduction modifiers such as Flash Healing yourself or pressing Fade, and so on and so forth.
Itās just incredibly stacked. Thereās no singular ability or interaction that you can point to say, āThatās the one OP thing with Shadow.ā
Which is why lower-caliber players arenāt necessarily pointing to it and crying Havoc (see what I did there? Because DH?)
Shadow could use gentle tuning across the spectrum to bring it down to a place where itās a strong jack of all trades, but not a master of them all.

No idea why RADAR is in all caps
they actually do have really good single target burst
dispelling sp is also terrifying because a lot of their comps can cc off of the vt dispel
all shadow cc is instant for example

Good. Instead of crying, advocate for classes to be on par wirh them. Constant nerf bats lead to very boring gameplay
