Good god, I really took in every detail of that eyesore.

As a general rule of thumb, Warriors simply can not counter your mage without the aid of his Warlock's Felhunter or teammates aggressiveness. If your Priest is countering their Druid while your Rogue...

I wouldn't say that our Druid can't cyclone, but the mage is solely saving his counterspell for when he attempts to. I'll reply with the results of tonights spec and playstyle change.

The new Priest/Mage/Rogue (PMR)

Okay, so maybe it isn't exactly new, but its threat has increased tenfold with the last patch.

So far, I'm really enjoying the standard 35/23/3 build. The disarm resistance makes the nerf a lot easier to bear. To be honest, I can't even imagine how painful 10 seconds of disarm would be.
