I wanted to share my new team comp that we tried for 2nd time for past few weeks but it seems its gonna really shine with shaman changes.

Particular line-up is, Mage 0/5/56, Resto Shaman with not best desired spec and Muti rogue 41/20. Me and rogue are geared in S3 and shammy mostly S1.

We swap out priest for shaman becouse simple he was not available and it turned out quite strong team.
Starting from 1500 to 1700 we went 20-1 with stupid loss and than triple revenge. Not many double melee teams in that bracket in our quite strong BG.
Caster teams were a total joke with rank1 earthshock assist and earthen shield on mage(me) giving me really nice edge with less interrupts. Triple dps/hybrid teams like Elemental/SP/Lock were tight but never lost.
Above 1.7k we reach a brick of wall in a double melee teams, we shouldnt lose however our shamman is fairly undergeared, he cant speak/use vent and he is just 'good' player so we were kinda screwed at that point.

I'll report lateron when my friend's shamman is back on server around 4th april and we give it a serious try to this team with full S3 and really skilled shamman.

Some of the tactics, versus PMR for example we were able to play either long games training mage or just simply finishing priest quite well. Spliting DPS with muti on priest, me on mage and training all CC with counterspell/earthshock or just interrupt heals we were able to clear them without much trouble. I just wish we had much better shamman and i would probably never play PMR.

Versus lock teams we were able to kill them in no time. Bloodlust, shatter combo and muti burst nothing that PMR can come up with.

Double melee teams were tricky with shamman being trained so he was focusing on himself too much not interrupting healers/warrior which we often were able to drop if he was just able to earthshock/purge.

Any teams without hamstring were a joke, poison cleaning / cure and im kiting rogue out to hell or shammy just ghostwolf if he is focused. Being pretty much unable to drain us made hunter teams much easier also this way we beat quite some double/triple drain with hunter/lock and druid/priest. Something that was always my nightmare playing PMR.

From my mage point of view, earthenshield giving me much less pushback is insane. I even feel like i was playing with 2xT4 for 100% non-interrupted frostbolts during S2. Maybe not significant but u can really feel it.
