Flag Carrying in RBGS

[cerebro]

What class is the most viable to be the designated flag carrier?

Anyone not voting guardian, hasn't played RBGs.
You need stealth to get anywhere near the flag, if you can't stealth, you will get engaged on midmap and slowed and crowd controlled into infinity while the enemy team druid sprints and speedcaps.

Rogues lose their mobility after 4 stacks of flag carrier debuff (limits movespeed to 100%), after that they're just sitting ducks with weak survival and that's why they're not viable.

Stealing the flag and then handing it over to a dedicated tank works on some maps, but doesn't on Deepwind Gorge. On Deepwind Gorge you have to reach the enemy base in stealth (or get slowed/CC-d on the route) and then carry the cart back to your base while movespeed limited and getting pounded on. Guardian druid is the only viable carry on that map.
