Though I think that was kinda my druids fault for panicking and not tanking the rogue in bear near me while I'm rooted so I could do some DPS, and just running away from the rogue all the time wasting lots of shapeshifts to travel just to get auto-attacked and crippling-poisoned to shift again. Dunno if he expected me to get out of the CC chain by myself with the druids timing on cyclone being so perfect (should I be able to?).
You can probably pop up a spell reflect while rooted. Even if he cancels Cyclone to Moonfire the reflect, now you're unrooted and can at least intercept him while roots is on DR so he can't immediately Nature's Grasp and re-CC. Your Druid can also use Feral Charge to interrupt a CC - he's probably wanting to Feral Charge away from the Rogue anyway, so it might as well help you get free. Constantly pull the Rogue away from his Druid; the Druid will be able to keep up and heal, but hopefully not have time to CC you.

Another one, pally/lock and he got OOM way faster than the pally, even with lock sundered taking 2k+ MS crits and sometimes even with sweeping on the pet.
This one is definitely a mana war. Three things you have to do to win that mana war:
1) Don't let the Paladin drink. Your Druid has superior mobility, but he has to be able to rely on you to prevent Fears if he exposes himself to prevent the Paladin from drinking.
2) Get some drinks yourself. This is easier if the Warlock starts out with a Voidwalker or you kill the Felhunter and he summons the VW, because your Druid can root the VW and then sit down for a drink.
3) Don't let Innervate get dispelled. Put up a 3 stack of Lifebloom before you cast it, and more trash buffs afterwards if you can. My Innervate self macro casts R1 Thorns and R1 MotW if I keep mashing it after I've cast Innervate.
