I think a relevant analogy is that of a Boxer in the ring with a superior opponent. Whereas a superb ring general such as Ali may formulate a strategy using footwork, hand speed, and cutting off the ring to gradually wear his opponent down and win, a lesser tactician might simply rely on the one punch knockout. Once the knock out misses, it can be attributed to "RNG."
I would daresay that the reason for you losing to a Warrior/Paladin has less to do with one spell resisting for one global cooldown and more to do with a) the comp b) your skill level c) their skill level. I'm sure you prefer blaming RNG for it, like a lot of players, but that's human nature I suppose.
