Unless your name is Vanguards, Ret is really bad. I'd probably go with mage.

I wouldn't play a mage. Not looking forward to being bent over by any hunter that crosses my path.
Hunter vs. mage is the most one sided pvp fights in the whole game, as a mage you get countered so hard by any non-retarded hunter that you might as well type /afk. And I play a hunter, it would take some super mage skills to beat me in a 1v1. It's probably as stupid as vanilla rogue vs. warlock. Fucking pointless.

Ok so I do have every melee class except for a monk and ret hard counters monks so ill stop there.
As for the dbag in this thread that says ret is mindless, I bet he plays a warrior the class that you can BB lindfold your way to 1750.
Warriors only situational ability is heroic leap, use it offensively or defensively and oh ya all warriors cc is instant too. Its not fun to play a warrior.
DK specifically unholy has the most insane pressure in pvp, more so than any class. Instant ccs as well, and the most unique spell in the game necrotic strike.
What these two classes have over ret, is you don't actually have to try hard to do dmg and you can train way more on them than you can as ret.
Ret is a support melee dps. Where most of your down time outside of burst you play defensive, otherwise you'll die. Being able to heal and chose between that and dong dmg will make or break your 3s team bgs don't matter play all 3 specs there.
Boomkins are really fun as a caster they are the most unique using the eclipses as a resoure for dmg but really low survival and huge ramp up outside of cds.
Most mages will tell you that if outside of cooldowns and procs and alter on CD that all you are is a poly morph machine and if you don't like that don't play a mage.
Mage has the best burst here of the three followed by ret then boomkin.
If you like support or being a team player, play ret, most utility here. Then boomkin next the only support a mage has is offense. So its dull compared to the other two classes.
If you wanna be the sat target guess what all three of these specs are trained by almost all comps because all 3 of the specs their comps are directly built around.
My opinion ret is the most fun followed by boomkin then mage.
I will suggest playing ret overthem because there is more to ret and being a great ret is harder than the other two.
As for casters look into ele shamans. A lot of fun there. Happy gaming to you.
