Unfortunately the strategy is a lot harder to execute than it sounds, between los hamstring piercing howl and BoF, but we can generally pull it off against a team whose warrior doesnt have a mooncleaver/deep thunder and even sometimes against teams that do.
I really strongly recommend not touching the warrior when fighting this matchup. Sap him, fear him, anything you can do to slow him down, but focus fire that paladin. Make him shield early, then obliterate him when it wears off. Rogue can vanish when he bubbles to get away from the warrior if he needs to. Once the paladin goes down, the warrior is easy meat.
