This guy has no idea what he is doing then. Sorry, hunter's have more to it, sure it might work for a little bit but once you get into higher ratings he will get demolished because he isn't focusing much on when to do damage and when to do CC and when to help his team. A hunter's main use in a successful arena is to CC before DPS. If they do DPS before CC, they will sadly fail.

Sorry but there is no way that a hunter requires no skill definitely not "bashing your face into a keyboard" to win. I dare you to try and learn a hunter and play them successfully, if you try to one button shit you will get your ass handed to you on a silver platter.
Let's have a look here, a melee dps and range dps.
Hunter: Interrupt, traps, 7 button rotation, several cooldowns, slow shot, confuse shot.
Warrior: Interrupt, 7 button rotation, several cooldowns, charge, stun.
Yeah warrior requires soooo much more skill LOL
Every damn class is easy to play, WoW is for noobs, play starcraft 2 if you want to prove your skill in gaming...
Hunter : Interrupt which is more useful for a CC to combo with Trap, Slows, Tranq to get rid of enrage, pet stun or pet interrupt, widow venom to reduce healing, explosive trap to shoot them away from your friends. Silencing shot, good for interrupting and temp CC to burst someone. correct ways to use disengage to either get away or get closer to enemies. Hunter's mark on rogue to make sure they don't vanish that often, flare on invisible people, OH and scare beast on shaman ghost wolf and druid.
Okay now use all of those successfully and come back and tell me that playing a hunter is "easy"
And this isn't including all the situation crap you have to do, like have your pet attack earth bind totem or to line of sight correctly when you are being hunted down and to feign death to lose LoS.
I don't get why people even make these threads...let alone post them here on MMO! Clearly these threads are troll attempts that seek to be feed like the attention hungry parasites they are...I suppose everything deserves to eat, but this is just pathetic
Shall I be dramatic and say "You haven't heard the last of me,"?
LIFE

So you're basing "one" spec "chimera shot" to judge a hunter by it doesn't take skill to play?
Chimera shot hits like a truck, it's also a 9 second cooldown.
Frost mages can hit with ice-lance for 80k and have x5 procs (Alter timer, etc). In 5 globals basically nuke a target from full to dead. In the time it takes for those five ice-lances only one chimera shot has gone off.
So really, lets change this thread/topic into, "Mages - a class with no skill needed to play - called a one button class by people Good or bad"
Done! And I still say it's easy to play a hunter, but not more than any other class...
No more faceroll than any other class.
It's like I would say: Earthbind totem and pop all cd's as shammy and nuke 1 million dps in 5 seconds while target is slow and ice-rooted if you use that talent.
But hey, if you would let me as enh shammy nuke you down with all my cd's, you really suck... cc the living shit out of me, every class can do it.
Only class I feel is a bit op in pvp is frost mage

I don't think Hunters are a one button class even though it's for sure not the hardest class.
But I think they're retardedly over powered and toxic to the game since 5.2, I would actually be happy if they would remove it. That's the only class I have so much hate for, Warriors are overpowered on PvP but Hunter are just boring to play against. Their pet actually deals more damages than the hunter itself, even when the hunter leaves it auto, an NPC shouldn't deal more damages than the class supposed to control it in any case.
