Blizz gotta do something about these ONE MILLION micro Stuns/CCs that melee have against casters!
Have you guys EVER tried playing DESTRO or DEMO warlock which are really hard casters (or any caster) against WW monks, Feral Druids, Rogues in general, Frost DKs, Warriors etc? And in 85% of the solo shuffles, the entire lobby is melee, hardly any caster. Whenever I play against at least 1 caster, the game flows a lot better, but when it’s a full melee lobby, it’s really frustrating.
It’s just ridiculous the amount of stuns/interrupts/ccs they can use against me. Even if I stay put and try casting, I literally can cast 1 spell every 8-10 secs ish , then I can’t do any damage, even using port, demonic gateway, kiting etc. It’s just ridiculous unbalanced.
Shamans and Mages are good against caster cause they have a lot of instant spells, barely casting, but locks. Jesus, it’s ridiculous.
ALL the melees have instant damage and stuns available while lock gotta cast everything! I love lock, but it’s getting really annoying.
Got implement something like you are only able to be stunned, incapacited or interrupt once every 45 secs or 1min, so the melee can ACTUALLY think which spells they’ll interrupt instead of bloody spamming stuns and interrupts.
I’m cancelling my subscription until that changes.

Caster into melee heavy teams is the most miserable experience I have ever had, in any video game, ever.

Try it as a healer, it’s so much worse. Interrupts not being tied to any DR is such an awful idea.

I have tried, it’s also ridicolous. I just played with my Fury warrior against a balance druid… he couldn’t cast ONE single spell, only the instant ones. I know it was really frustrating to him and I won all of the solo shuffles I played against him really quick.
Just let me play the gameeeeee
-Me as healer probably
Wow and unbalanced PvP go hand in hand
Back in my corrupted days . A Paladin HOJ had a 7 sec cooldown . Have been chained HOJ by a single paladin ?? 
As unbalanced and annoying as it is, you still have enough kit potential as destro to make small kill windows to win the game. I really hope people don’t play PvP as a mythic + sustain dps race even though sometimes that do apply as well.
TL;DU (Too long, didnt understand), I agree.
I actually recently just quit healing because of this. I just can’t take it anymore.
In before the resident glads tell everyone to “git gud”
Lock is so fun! Its awesome not being able to even place a portal before being cc burst to death with every single defensive cd blown. Really makes the time & gold spent to gear worth it.
BGs I also believe we need more knock backs.
Meanwhile
Only MW is allowed to have a disarm back. Not a single other caster.
I think the biggest issue with the game is not just class and melee vs ranged in pvp issues…it’s the skill level ramp. The classes have all been shifted to a much higher skill level and it’s like a damn cliff. They need to come up with some ways to simplify pvp and give it a bit more ramp up or nobody but the best…or a premade will play.
edit: oh and don’t forget the obligatory get rid of add ons for anything but basic interfaces in pvp. weakauras and things similar should not be in pvp. It’s just ruins the ability to balance things.8
Melee have too many gap closers.

Yeah, as an MM hunter main since BC, I second that. The fact that a DK can yank me from my max range, then yank me again and pin me down with chains of ice the second I disengage is absurd. All the melee get second chance gap closers, but the hunters got left out of the double use chances to get away like mages etc. got.

I’ve been trying pvp on multiple toons and the slow casters not really somethingi I enjoy in bgs. Even my shadow priest with the big purple orb that floats through enemies, not into it.
I’m sorry if yoinked anyone on my frost dk lol. Frost dk, prot pally, mm monk, have all been good in pvp. Shaman will be good. I was struggling on my mm hunter a bit but coming around to the pvp playstyle.
