Healers get frustrated, and all we wanted to do was get the 2.2k achievement in 2s.
The way games go against hunter/disc is you have to be able to survive their CC chains, then as a DK you can put out enough pressure on the disc to either kill him outright or run him OOM. I know it does not sound possible, but it is. Things you have to contend with are scatter/traps so you have to be grouped up as much as you can and eat traps for your healer, but you can't stay grouped up when the disc charges in or invises so you don't get double feared. Then you also have to save interrupts for mind control, not heals. If your healer does eat a trap it is best to pillar hump until he is out. You can line a hunter somewhat effectively depending on how things are going. You can also asphyx stun the hunter when he scatters to stop trap combos but you have to be on the ball with it. Same cooldown so once you get good at communicating it you can change your positioning to have your healer far enough away that the hunter has to run into range and telegraph his trap. Then you just wait for him to scatter and stun him. If he is quick and bestial wraths the stun it will still be long enough for your healer to run out before trap arms. It is far easier to just eat traps though. I would actually stun the hunter on every trap so I had a timer for it and then I could eat them pretty well after that.
If it is hunter/disc you should be okay. Dks eat disc priests. Double grip for silence immune, purge for shields, getting huge necro stacks up and using pet stun etc can land you kills if you can get some unpeeled time on the priest. The hunter will go into full peel mode when you start on the priest though as the hunter will never try to kill your healer so he will always be on you. It is just not possible to kill the hunter because they will get away for some amount of time and you can't have a CC chain long enough in 2s as a dk/anything to land a kill.
Doable, just have to play better.
