5v5 Team Makups
Tenko — Tue, 06/17/2008 - 7:14pm
Con't from last article detailing 2v2 and 3v3 makeups. I'm going to approach this topic a little differently. Rather than list out every team type and discussing it i will be listing healer and dps groups for 5v5 teams and how they mesh together.
Healers are pretty much the backbone of any 5v5 team, the better they are the longer you'll live and the more time you will have to kill the other team. I'm not saying that dps doesn't have a big role but if you're dead you can't do anything. In the 5v5 brackets there are single healer teams better known as 4dps teams, your standard 2 healer teams and the occasional 3 healer setup. Obviously there are 4 healers in wow, priests, paladins, druids and shamans....combat medics with bandaids do not count.

Topic requested by Satisfaction from the Korgarth server.
First off I won't comment to much on the 2v2 bracket. This season after playing just a few games I decided that it wasn't worth my time to play because this bracket is all about your team composition vs the other team composition. Casus and myself ran Frost Mage and SL/SL Lock for the previous 2 seasons and finished in Gladiator range both times. Season 2 we were the 5th team and the top 4 made the Blizzard tournament, we missed the cut on a dropped queue that cost us 18 points. But basically healer + dps rules this bracket now, most noteably druid + warrior and shaman + warrior. Neither of these combos give me and casus problems but we have about a 5% chance to beat a resto druid + lock or holy priest + lock. It doesn't matter how bad they are they will most likey beat us and that really makes it difficult to play when we lose to players that really don't play this game very well and there is nothing we can do about it. Bottom line if you're not a warrior w/ a healer you probably want to stay away from this bracket.

Thanks to Bunnay for allowing me to post a blog on our guild website. This blog will mainly be to discuss World of Warcraft with a major focus on pvp more specifically Arena. I will also use this blog to trash Myrx and his rogue blogs as often as I can. Also if anyone wants me to put forth my thoughts on a general or specific issue please let me know and i'll see what I can do. My appologies in advance for bad spelling/grammar but its been a while since I've formally written anything.
