I like new things that make it more fun. Making Frost more and more dominant makes it boring and homogenous for PvP, and Arcane is becoming more and more homogenous with PvE being Arcane Blast spam.

Qao is not my first Mage... he's my... 6th or 7th to 70? Most of the other ones are gone for one reason or another (gave away several accounts to guild friends, one got banned for some reason I'm still not sure of).

I've seen a lot and played a lot and when you do that you tend to find unique ways to amuse yourself. I've beaten season 2 Rogues with this spec. So it's always a fun spec for me to play, because it's interesting. Especially since they can't gib the elemental (nor complain that they lost because of it later). I actually do recall beating a Warglaive Rogue before as well, though I suspect that was mostly due to lucky crits and the fact that he had no PvP gear. But hey, it's all in good fun and that's what I try to do at the moment (when Wrath comes out, I might become a little more serious again, but I haven't seriously raided since BT--and that was quite a while ago).

I feel that, since class balance amongst classes is not a priority for Blizzard, that at least internally all three specs (of any single class) should have some amount of equal footing to rest their laurels, of a sort, on.
