Double feral or Feral/rogue make 2v2 unplayable right now.

[Deleted]

Start in stealth, sick instant damage, good selfheals and CC and both got very good escape mechanics.

How can you counter this without running the same comps yourself !?

[marv333]

play healer dps
Disc/Feral is god mode in 2s
Protwarrior/Healer
DK/Healer (Hpal or Rdruid)
Ret/Healer
Ret/Hunter
Ret/Feral
Ret/X pretty much


all those comps have no problems killing any other comps

Avoid 2v2 until they are getting nerfed.

I wouldn't say that is exactly necessary, it sucks playing double feral but a lot of the guys just are not that good and you can outplay them. Sort of like early MoP Warriors, you see them, you knew what was coming, and you just had to hope that they were FotM rerollers (which the sheer number of Ferals I see now make me willing to hedge that bet most the time.)

I just did a few skirmishes playing with my friend. Faced ret/feral and the only times they CCed me was when the pala HoJed me once. Yet they continued to bash on my healer who get to 10% multiple times. They simply kept off-healing themselves and my friend is not a bad player whatsoever lol.

We won in the end, but I could argue that if they CCed me only a tiny bit more that he would've most likely died.

Sounds like Warrior/Healer in season 1 MoP. I remember hitting a wall of Warriors around 1800 in 2s when running Rogue/RDruid (which was horrible at the time). The players were clearly horrible but we'd still need to outplay them massively to deal with the insane constant pressure. Basically needed to juke every single interrupt/reflect, knock the Warrior off on z-axis maps (that was still a thing then), and then chain CCs and pop HoTW to get through Second Wind. All they seemed to do was just follow us around and smash... rarely ever CC'd us, and if they did they'd often overlap CCs badly. Just really obviously not that good yet gifted 1750/1800.

Yes, Rogue is my main. I played at the beginning of Cata but skipped the last season that was just dumb because of PvE items.

Almost every 2v2 match there is a feral in the enemy team >.>

It's just horrible atm.
