If you are asking about playing as druid/rogue/priest then I can give some advice.

Just started playing this last week as a 'for fun' team and we got to 2090 with 8 losses. Our losses were 4 to druid/shaman/warrior(they were rated 2300 and VERY good. We won 3), 1 to druid/lock/mage(in an hour and 20 minute match. We screwed the pooch on this one) and 3 to various shaman/ret pally/warrior teams with some lucky burst on the priest.

It is an incredibly strong comp with very few counters. The team hinges almost entirely on your priest, I feel. The priest needs to be able to pole dance, go offense and go defense seemlessly and at a moments notice. The damage a disc priest can put out is actually pretty astonishing.

It is fun because if you play it well you have a counter to everything another team can throw at you.

Having 2 healers that dont need to stand and cast to heal is amazing. Poison and magic dispel. Offensive dispel.

It is especially strong vs warlock teams and druid teams, of which there are quite a few. It feels a tad weaker vs plate spam but it is manageable with the rogue saving stuns and spamming crippling to bail the priest out of sticky situations.

Oh, it is very effective vs druid/rogue/warrior. If they get on your priest. Your rogue hammers theirs, your druid controls their warrior and your priest spams dispels on the rogue to get rid of abolish/rejuv. The druid runs out of mana very quickly. If they get on your rogue druid controls their warrior, rogue fronts other rogue and priest goes druid hunting for fear/burn while spamming dispel on their rogue.
