    Give every class a resurrect!

    As simple as the title states, I think every class should have an resurrect.

    now ofcourse you wonder why do I think this? Well I just came from an arena where we scored 2 cross kills (First 1 cross kill, then in the 2v2 that followed another!) and what remained was a Mage versus a Disc on Dalaran arena.

    Now you would say "Aha, this is a sure win for the Mage!" but no. The Disc had zero intentions of trying to score a kill on me and was just going to wait till the tie, and now its theoretically impossible for a Mage to kill a Disc if the Disc only plans on running around a box. Also unlike him, I had to stay sharp all the time because he could go for a ress whenever he wanted, and if failed he could hide behind his boxes again.

    I could not force him offensive because I had no ress, he had no reason to move away from the boxes because he could reach his teammates bodies with ease by standing on the edges. Due to this I was forced to sit there for 40 minutes because I refused to grant him any points for that. (All of this is on 2,2k+ mmr btw).

    Please give your opinions on this.

    If you weren't a mod i'd report you for trolling :||||||

    Its very simple for a Mage to kill a Disc in a 1v1 without LoS.

    But it is impossible for a Mage to kill a disc in a 1v1 on dalaran vs a disc that has 0 intentions of going offensive.

    He just runs around the terrible shaped boxes making it impossible for me to hit anything on him, while dispelling all my slows and using shield renew and PoM just to heal

    To back up my exp, my main is a Disc with 2,6k rating

    It's not impossible, Stanton, but Disc priest is one of the worst matchups for frost mage. Dispel hurts, and Dispel > Spellsteal most of the time. They can dispel shatter so it means you are on a small damage throttle. It requires incredibly good timing, some luck, and getting nearly every decision right to beat even a mostly competent disc priest. If he's really pro, it's pretty much not happening. Cooldown management is essentially, and you're pretty much going to expect the fight to completely reset two or three times (sheep resets so you can evocate/eat). You pretty much have to run disc oom to win.

    Of course, there are plenty of really bad disc priests, and plenty of bad frost mages. A bad frost mage usually beats a bad disc priest because the bad disc priest often doesn't know what he needs to do to counter a mage, and the frost mage just needs to smash his face into the keyboard slightly faster.

    Why not? If I had a way to force the Disc to move away from the boxes (i.e by standing on the other side of the map and casting ress myself) I would be able to get him np.

    EDIT:

    Actually I decided to report you Stanton, for the sheer reason I received a infraction once for saying something similair (Though justified in my case and unjustified in your case).

    I thought this thread said, "Give every class a restaurant!" and I am really disappointed that I'm not being given the opportunity to open my own Tauren - uh, I mean, vegan - burger bar.

    On topic, please don't give every class a Resurrect. I understand the frustrations of the OP, but seriously, suggestions like this put us on a very slippery slope.

    Lorewise... how is it possible for a rogue or a warrior to res someone? A hunter ressing a feral druid I can understand but.. eh.

    Derp warlock and DK have a ress? Lore does not matter.

    Gamebalance>lore.

    Can we get to the main point.

    Your not allowed to ressurect in arena so your topic is pointless.

    i meant combat res.
    which is true and the priest wont let you anyway.

    Besides i already think it's cheap enough you mages keep invisibility while us locks get our detect invisibility removed.

    Yeah I hate to go against the mod, but the frost mage has a VERY slim chance at being able to kill a LOSing Disc Priest who is completely on the defensive.

    Different classes are different. Every class has at least one shitty match-up.

    uugggnn no lore wise they could ress someone.

    warlock is the masters of souls and demons. i'm sure they could store a soul and tell the soul to reteurn to the body.
    and dk's could summons a ghoul why not bring a corpse back to life?

    mage is also somehow possible by sending a lost soul back in time.

    but a rogue or a warrior? no

    Wait, I got a infraction for this post.

    but
    I forget- How is it impossible for a Mage to kill a Disc Priest?
    this kind of posts are allowed as long as they are made by a mod?

    We all know that if said mod made this topic, and I replied like he did I would get a infraction aswell. Strong rules.

    Not sure if mistaken title or trolling? Every class can resurrect. I dunno what makes you think you'd get a kill if a priest decided to MC you while you were in the middle of casting it? Assuming it was changed to be allowed in arena.

    Clearly the rogue stabs them with a poison that revives, and the warrior yells at them until they get up.

    he'd be forced to move away from the boxes and thus I can actually attack him. Also remove that first part, I got a infraction just now for posting something similair.
    Every class can resurrect
    and no not every class can.

    Blizzard isn't concerned with anything that happens as a result of 2v2.
    Reread OP, it was the result of a 3v3.
