Hunters have an undispellable root every time they disengage, also master's call, pet cc, etc. - not saying Mage mobility is bad lol, just saying that I get his point. Not sure about the warlock thing though.
Don't know why people are still arguing about this to be honest: it's incanters ward, frozen orb, and human/orc racial allowing random 1 shots every minute or so. Nerf to incanters on its way. Change human racial so it's not so fucking dumb, or remove racials from arena entirely (this would be awesome). And make it so orb simply snares/gives procs, and does no damage to PVP players. FixT

That root is only every 25 seconds and is ALWAYS tied to their gap opener, unlike mages ones, but yeah, I guess.
I honestly think they do need to remove racials from PvP. Troll, Human, and Orc racials all allow way too much burst (at least for right now... because classes have gotten more and more cd's throughout the years.)
And I would love that orb change. That plus all the pvp power changes and such I think would honestly make a lot of classes closer to each other and allow for a more balanced season.
It's funny to think of it from a Mage perspective because they have all the tools themselves to deal with their own classes bullshit. Blink for the deep freeze or roots, spell steal for the procs, blanket silence to stop CC from range without having to deal with juking. The game is so easy for a mage with their utility they can't see how stupidly overpowered their bust setup has become.
I guess it's like how I didnt really understand how stupid Fear was back in the day before I rolled a non warrior alt. So to get mages to understand how rediculous it is for the normal mode classes, they should take the stun and root removal off blink, make spell steal not work on players, and make blanket silence not work on players; then let them see how much they like Deep Freeze Shatters.
That's the one great thing about rogues on live too, they have that bullshit retarded overpowered opening stun burst while invisible, but that actually fucks rogues harder then anyone. Its the anti mage, their overpowered bullshit is the worst against themselves, while a mages overpowered bullshit is laughably pathetic against a mage.
When you see someone in a thread making the same canned responses over and over, click their name, click view forum posts, and see if they are a troll. Then don't feed them."Gamer" is not a bad word.

"If you could say just one thing to help the community understand (frost) (mage) PvP balance, what would you say?
Brian may answer differently, but I would say mages are hard to counter for average players but easy for great players.
So historically a nerf to say Deep Freeze or poly risks making them dead at the high end."
We're just average players.
so is this noob (average) http://www.twitch.tv/vanguardstv/c/2298833
I don't think he should've said that they are making mages balanced at a 2.3k+ rating players, which must be tops 0.2% of the whole wow population. And yet they refuse to make changes to PVP becouse they are a minority overall. God forbid that mages arent Rank 1 material for 8 years.

I wonder how bad Holinka feels having to dodge the Mage questions and stick to GC's obviously biased easily proven false reasoning.
