Whatever spec you are, what class do you find easiest to kill in 1vs1 scenarios? given that you both are pretty equalized in gear/stats

Frost DK here:
Whenever I find myself in a little 1v1 tussle in a bg, especially when I go up against somebody with comparable gear, I feel like I just shred through Priests. 2h Oblit on cloth armor hits for huge damage, so any cloth- or leather-wearing class goes down pretty fast.
Not a very valid poll due to each class has their own 'easiest kill'.
Better if you did a poll from pov of a class you're interested in.
Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
On my shadow priest all these are free kill: elemental shamans/balance druids/ret paladins/monks/rogues/warlocks/hunters. I tend to beat ferals and frost DKs more often than not, but those are definitely not free kills.
I don't 1v1 so much on my other characters to be able to judge it that great.
Currently I play BM Hunter.
Easy to kill: Rogue, Frost DK
Hard to kill: Warlock, Tanks, (not sure about Shadow Priest)
Mostly impossible to kill: Healers
My impressions are from Random BGs where you basically can't really tell why you win a 1on1. It might often be a difference in gear or/and skill, and that's something that this poll is not about, but these thing can't be excluded either, at least not in random BGs.
Hunters as either priest spec.

My transmog & misc. blog!
I play ww monk atm.
Currently "easy" to kill:
Rogue, sham, feral, war, dk, hunter, ret, boomkin & most locks
Hard to kill:
Spriest, mage
Dont think i missed anything but i might, currently the only problem for ww monk 1v1 is frost/fire mage or spriest.
Shamans, obviously. Only the resto spec lasts more than 10 sec.
Frost DK
Easy to kill - Priest, Shamans and Warlocks.
Impossible - Mages, mages, mages, mages, mages, mages, and the ocasional druit who knows how to get out of chains of ice.
as a BM hunter, i would say warrior, ret pala, dk (except for blood)
imposible kills: Mages, shadowpriests, resto druids, holy palas.
Warlocks used to be by far the easiest class to kill but not anymore, i think shamans and hunters are the easiest to kill for me, dks go down pretty quick too.
Thats strange also a bm hunt and I find all of those really easy.
I would say any class/spec except a skilled warlock or bm hunter is a walkover for me.
Of all blood dks are probably the easiest as I dont even need a single cd (and I have a ton of those). Just kite scatter on ams, disengage or masters call on grip and that is pretty much it.
Healers have no chance at actually killing me so I oom them/ end them with proper cd/cc usage eventually.
Just spirit mend,sac , exhil on cd and tranq their burst cds. No healer should do alot of dmg to you then, if they for some reason do just scatter trap stealth and eat up.
I play a shaman and voted shaman. I have a hard time believeing anything in the game is easier to kill than an elemental shaman. Don't know if the situation is much better for enhancement. Resto survives for ages obviously (healer, duh).
Might be a L2P issue.
I would normally vote shaman, since it's been a long time since a DPS spec'd shaman has posed a real threat in pvp but currently I'd have to vote rogue, they've certainly fallen on hard times.
As a shadow priest, has to be elemantal shamans, they havent been much of a problem ever since that lava burst was pretty much a one shot with that debuff, cant remember eh, was long time ago. Other than Eles, probably hunters, locks
As a windwalker monk, the hardest for me are frost mages, arms warriors, bm hunters, ret paladins and demo locks.
Everything else takes significantly less effort, easiest probably being rogues and druids.

That feeling when i can't peel dks off myself as shadow priest, and realize i'm just delaying the inevitable.
OT: kinda hard to answer because it depends on so much, their talents, spec etc, they can pick a lot of stuff just to counter you 1v1, but overall with 3 orbs its quite easy to get anything down to 20-30% as long as it doesnt use trinket/big CDs, and under 20% it's basically a kill.
Dks are very squishy as well, but 1v1 melee (mostly warrior and monks) can lock us down good.
