Okay, thank you. For 2s or 3s? or?
What do you think about the name Bibendum for Shaman? It is the Michellen Man, which means “now is the time to drink.” Michellen Man seems to be good with the elements: sleet, ice, weather, and snow. I am the worst at names, though. 
Who names their character Fungames but never has played a fun game, or Frostyownz, but sucks at Frost Mage?
Or do you have any name ideas?
Checked the post I replied to and we’re 6 edits deeper

People can, you cannot.
Maybe you wouldn’t need to reroll if you learned to do something other than press frostbolt.
It’s crazy that frost is actually the playstyle you’ve been asking for, for years. And you still complain about it.

How do I keep the [quote] in my post, when I am the poster right underneath, without editing it and adding it back in?
Who hurt you? Lol. I can and have. Just not this expansion. I do not have room for the +13 binds they added added in TWW to min/max to the fullest. Hopefully spellslinger changes that a bit in 11.1.
Your problem isn’t min maxing at your level. You aren’t even close to that ever mattering for you. It’s just not being terrible. Quit yapping and just get better at the game.

What do you mean, my level? Uhm, I’ve only been theorycrafting and afk’ing every arena game I queue for. I hold top positions in every expansion and was completely min-maxed out the last day of season in DF. I was the only Frost Mage who played Frostbolt with absorb neck to damp with rDruid. I did not figure out it was BiS, overprecog, until the 3rd week of expansion and did not find my rDruid to play with until the last week, who was currently 2200cr. The highest-rated rdruid I ever played with. I went from 2k to 2380MMR in 2x 1.5-hour queue sessions. Was pumping CR, even with /afking. It took me the whole expansion to min-max, and I would have kept pushing to top position, but my druid was busy. I literally have 24,000 hours as Frost Mage. The only option I have left is to min-max, like switching non global binds to non shift modifier binds, etc. I only play 2s.
Lol. You must be hard trolling right now; if you’ve ever watched my games, how I yolo block at 40-80% dampening and still win at the top of the ladder, as well as, have perfect Re-CC and hold block like a god at 1% health for several seconds at 2100+ mmr with a druid who was considerably worse than the druid I played with on the last day I played. I have very consistent play. Which is only achievable with a control play style.
Again, are you ok?
I did not complain about it in DF (hardly at all) or SLs or any other expansion. Lol. Only Cata and this Expansion and Cata it was not bad enough to post on the forums. So I am not sure what you are talking about. I am entirely new here on the forums. Lol.
Someone forgot to pop the meds today, also watch any vod or guide from Aeghis (he plays your precious 2v2 bracket) you’re the misguided one and honestly should be flagged for spam.
What are you talking about. Lol. I watch his videos, and I assure you, we disagree on a lot, so do most R1s with him.
He is the outlier. Many R1 mages believe ray should not be a great spell. Aeghis is in favor of Ray, or was. I used to watch him frequently. We have very different playstyles. Believe me and disagree on a lot.
I’m talking about how you make new characters relentlessly, spas out , and actually believe what you’re saying is true. Maybe a form of dissociation? Whatever it is causing you to act this way is unhealthy and non sensical
You have no proof of these imagined R1’s and their keybinds and cancel auras, it’s been stated before you’re out right just not playing correctly and whining about results. You’re making WoW out to be some sort of complex game that takes genius level IQ to understand, it’s not. Reroll BM Hunter, go copy the top build on murloc,io and then maybe you’ll see what high mmr 2’s are because you clearly are currently lost.

I have to; I am banned until the 31st. I had to make a whole new account. I do not make characters senselessly. I needed to name change to theory craft with, fyi. All my 4 other mages are still named Fungames.
Yes, I do; Aeghis himself has said he uses them. Lol.
Not even going to bother reading the rest. I can’t even play correctly; I do not have the keybinds to play correctly. I told you, I am literally bind-capped.
Are you ok dude? What is wrong? You seem to have a lot of angst towards a stranger on the forums who has only ever complained about TWW and no other expansion. Which is why you are seeing me here now.
Of course WoW is not, but if you want to be the best Frost Mage in the world in 2s, like Aeghis is, you literally need the cancel auras, etc. At least you did in beta and at the start of the expansion. I’m assuming that has not changed.
I literally have not played, ever since I saw the Frostfire tree in Alpha. I’ve tried to make things work, but I do not have enough room for +13 keybinds. I have 10 keybinds at most, and they wasted those by removing Ring of Frost and requiring Supernova 123 and Ice Nova 123. Supernova+Icenova combo added 10 keybinds alone. 5 for supernova and 5 for Icenova. I was simply using Just regular ice nova before.
You are right though; its not rocket science. I do not need to use non-shift modifiers for non-global macros; that is what Aeghis says is one of the last things you change, which I highly disagree with him on that too, as its better to play with what is more comfortable for you, and buying a new mouse to fit in new cancelaura keybinds is not comfortable for me. This game is not playable. Aeghis also picked up the game late, when it had hundreds of keybinds, so he was able to adapt better than me, using mouse modifiers. I picked the game up way early and had 10,000 hours in Frost Mage before he ever played WoW. Changing my binds for button bloat is simply not an option without suffering and being uncomfortable. Nor is it needed. To have good PvP, you do not need 100+ binds; blizzard forcing this is absolute dog water.
but like, since when was 2200 a top position?

Well, 2200 is the top position for Aeghis’s Frost alt, and his main is +200 CR rating on top of that. Though Aeghis plays Arcane a lot on both mages, which is really good right now in 2s, just breaks CC a ton! The state of Mage is more viable right now. Just not capable of playing it without more available keybinds because of terrible design choices blizzard made with cleaving and instant style, non-risk vs. reward play. Synergizing Frostbite with damage, and other things I’ve described in great detail in other unofficial Mage feedback threads. Mage did not even get official Mage feedback after TWW dropped. I doubt we will get this patch. We really need one though.
Also, the expansions with rating inflation in 2s, where we say 2700+ Cata, etc., I typically did not play because they suffered from slightly different problems. Like in Cata S4—it was instant cast 10x Lance with Orb out the gate and a huge lack of risk vs. reward gameplay. Also, there were rating bugs in Cata where you could /afk, and maybe people illegally inflated their ratings without consequence.
Now, every comp cleaves, breaks CC, on top of no risk vs. reward. I could argue the risk vs. reward was better in Cata, and DF had 2-4x as good of risk vs. reward compared to SLs.
DF had twice the risk vs. reward we have now. You could actually block at the top of the 2s ladder and be rewarded. I do not have experience with this expansion because of being bind-capped and not able to play, but I have a hunch this is no longer the case, especially without the 50% HP absorb neck.
Anyways, I must shower, stop being a bumb and get of the forums.
hi
Well, I just tested overpowered barrier on PTR. Lol. It’s forcing even more of a non-cc, non-control setup; your barrier actually has to break for it to do damage. Which means there is usually no point in sheeping the off target when OP barrier is up. Which is contradictory to the tooltip; I would expect how it functions to change. Not that I even want to play that spell in the first place.
Straight up, not going to be able to play this expansion. Not only do I not have the keybinds, but the people who tell the PvP developers what to do are not even thinking about PvP in the proper way or way they should; they are just hitting a randomize button in all honesty.
Only time 2200 has ever been considered a top position is the first 2 weeks of the season.
