Kiting in the 2v2 arena is actually drastically different than outside of it, to the point of being the opposite of what you'd expect in some cases.
Frost mages, arguably the best kiting class, become vulnerable to being los kited themselves once the fighting revolves around a pillar. Warriors aren't really kitable at all anymore with 15s intercept, unless you have entrapment on your side.
Kiting is generally done by the healers running around pillars and ramps, rather than the dps.
The teams that really rely on kiting are the ones with no pure healer than don't attempt to gib someone off the bat. I played lock/hunter early on in the season and the way we took down most healer teams was to kite them around until viper sting had done it's work.
One thing that really hit home playing last night in 2v2 was that warriors can stunlock me better than rogues. With intercept on a lower cooldown than kidney, mace spec, and deep thunder, the time spent stunned was ridiculous. You could even add in the stun metagem for more absurdity.
