Check that vid of payo dueling one of the Paladins from the EU tournament.
It isnât a meme. It is one of the most reliable and powerful talents in the game.
You said above you didnât play reckoning and everything youâve said indicates you hardly PvP. So why are you even talking here ?
So your proof is a paladin dueling one of the only classes that they hard counter
Definitely proof of S tier

Rogue representation is usually high and Paladin gets a free win over them in era. Is that not interesting?
Reckoning Paladin beats all melee. Period. So what is left? Mage and lock, basically. Pally actually plays very well into lock and mage is definitely doable.
Ok and?
Being good at one specific matchup is a far cry from being S tier

I literally just mathed out that a full reck bomb, on average, wouldnât even put my mishmash geared rogue who never stepped foot in nax to 50%, and you still wanna say that itâs amazing?
And i think we need to ask the question of what you think consitutes âpvpâ. Randomly dropping a reck bomb on people seems to be what you consider the absolute height of pvp prowess. What role do you bring to a warsong? How about an arathi? Or is AV more your style?
Meming on someone whoâs half hp, ill prepared to deal with you, and you can delete before they get a chance to act, by that metric any and all classes are S rank.

How convenient that the video above is literally a reck/ret paladin one shotting a BiS rogue with 4.8k health and thunderfury.
Again, you have no idea what youre talking about. Reck bombs ROUTINELY do over 4k damage.
Watch that dueling video posted above, come back.
Youâre literally using a matchup against a rogue, one of the only classes paladin hard counters as proof of ret paladin being S tier
Absolute clown tier argument
You clearly donât know what something being S tier means
I havenât actually seen anyone do it yet in SoD, is it removed like HC or is it not something you can until way later.
All I know is seen plenty of pallies when all else fails⌠hit the damn thing.
Technically a way to avoid dying. Very effective
I havenât once said this is the only reason. I am simply pointing out that in a tournament, Reck Paladins instantly will beat all melee. So the other matchups are all that remain. And they do well into mage/lock/priest.
This thread is loaded with half a dozen seriously worrysome cases of ret brain. The pure seethe that their class got a minor tweak is concerning
Idk what it is about ret paladin but they are so seriously invested in paladins itâs their personality and who they are as people. They put it on their resume that they play paladin.
Esfand, McConnell, madseason, etc etc
As much I love SoD perhaps it was a bad idea to make paladin relevant, because my god they are bursting at the seems raging like we hurt a family member.

So let me get this straight - You join a thread about Paladins in an online forum and are shocked that paladin players are involved, talking about the class?
Move along.
I joined with an opinion that AS was broken and unfair, and was viscously attacked.
It was patched 3 days later.
No âhey you were rightâ its double down and go harder.
At least 5 paladins in here are absolutely losing their minds over this change.
It was a good change. It needed to happen.
Agreed. The devs literally built 2 pvp runes into the leg slot and yet in pvp all paladins use is AS.
That tells you how broken it is.
Duration still needs a nerf too. 10 seconds is absurdly long. 5 is plenty. Again, itâs not a pvp rune lol
The only thing it tells you is that paladin is in desperate need of gap closers so much so that they would forgo a passive tremor totem and interrupt to have it

These people are clowns who donât know how tier lists actually work. They think because Paladins get to have a good match up against Warriors and Rogues but a bad match up against literally everything else makes them S tier.

Wow lol, 2 whole classes out of 8/9
Bro you are so stupid it hurts to read your posts. Do you think any Paladin actually wants to have to give up an interrupt or fear break? Unreal how dumb you are. I donât know how people like you even manage to find their way onto the internet.
