warrior

My 20sen:

PvP support - Shaman
I like the things being done to restoration shamans. They have more backups instead of just direct heals, can now decurse and polymorph. A lot of new abilities are purge bait, including top-end priest talents, so shamans who balance offense and healing will be formidable. It is more of skill-based class - harder to master and very frantic, but potentially more rewarding. Druid is easier to play, but has lower skill cap. Up to you.

PvP melee - Rogue
Rogues are arguably better than warriors because of repeating WoW trends. They traditionally are underpowered at the beginning of expansion, then progressively get stronger until becoming the top class (top class in S4 today). Rogues have more defensive outs, are less prone to CCs/kiting than other melee classes, and versatile enough to play in a lot of team compositions. The downside is they are extremely cooldown-dependent, so if you run out of timers you have to reset the fight. Upside is you can execute a lot of impressive combos, it is one of the more skillful PvP classes.

PvP caster - Mage
Mage has the most complete toolset of all caster classes. Defensive outs, kiting abilities, WTFburst combo, crowd control, mana recovery and spammable instants. My favorite class is the warlock, but the warlock has almost no outs against melee zergs, whereas mage has a lot of anti-melee tools. The main bane of mage for 2 WoW versions, the Felhunter, has been weakened considerably next expansion.

It's natural that, using all internet proof, we defend the underdog status of our favorite class. Heck I play a druid (badly), but let's look at it objectively. I don't like to argue with you, it always turns into sweaty a$$rimming and non-lubricated penetration.

Melees especially rogues just tended to scale better as the current version goes to the final stretch. The trend is not only TBC but also vanilla WoW, good thing for clothies that there weren't many kingsfall rogues back then

here's one of the many internet proofs yarrr:

fk that shit just roll a rogue skillless class dont even need to know how to play 1 to own with it.

If I remembered correctly, the AR/Prep was nerfed way before end of S3.

SK is kook though, if you click on many of the teams displayed, you get abandoned teams or placeholders.

I know Resto Druid are OP in pvp but i love to play as a Boomkin in arenas lol.

Spell Power in Woltk will make Resto into a more offensive type me thinks

Side Debate: What happens when Resto Druid meet Hunter + MS Warrior with equivalent gear in 2v2 if the opponent plans to get the druid first?

it needs a faceroll on the keyboard to become a rogue

if u are like me, a person who prefers grinding than doing quest, roll a priest.

get spirit gears, spec into imp wand spec and spirit tap, take tailoring as ur 1st prof (for spirit based craftables) and skinning as your 2nd. u can be 1-70 in roughly 7 days /played and 5k richer.

PW:shield, SWP 1 mob, wand until its 50% hp then pull another 1. rinse and repeat. profit.

just make sure u get the best available wand from the AH at your curret level. the jaina wand can last quite a few levels too!

S2 locks

For a look at more global arena statistics, you guys should check out:

Check out the amount of Chinese teams at the top lol

To OP:
If you're interested in arenas, druid would be a good choice because just about every popular team setup in 3v3, besides RMP (rogue, mage, priest), has a druid in it.
As a mage, if you follow American trends, your team choices are more limited, basically limited to RMP if you want to be at the top.
If you look at Chinese teams though, you can see they have a lot of WMDs.

Anyway, the expansion will probably change everything, so just play what you like more lol.

wow quaz seems to get a bit touchy whenever anyone talks about rogues. regardless of it being a praise or an insult.

touchy touchy

on a serious note tho, rolling a druid for wrath is kinda interesting despite flourish/WG being nerfed hard currently QQ
