Wow has a skill roof which is ridiculously low, mainly to the 1 second cooldown on stuff, imagine if you were limited to 1 action per second in sc lol (60 apm). It's all about gear I don't think this was ever strongly contested.

Actually, in high level PvP, gear is fairly standardized, since the "best" PvP gear is always going to be the season PvP rewards anyway, which most strong will have long since earned. Of course, this is also a double-edged sword, as it removes one of the points of strategic variation in RPG-based competitive games (e.g. DotA makes use of equipment in such a way thats not unfair, and allows for strategic adjustments).

Mage/warrior wasn't thaaaat bad, I know a team who were 2400+ with that combo in season 1. It just got worse because paladins became so much less common. I played it in season 3 (or 4 maybe) with a friend for a week or two and we got ~2200. Warrior/druid was one of the combos that wasn't too hard to beat, the highlight of that team was when we beat some mind numbingly horrible 2350~ warlock/druid team for an assload of points. Only time I actually ever faced the combo in 2v2 was when I was running warrior/druid in season 4 and we faced a warrior/mage team 5 or 6 times, they won once or twice because I had to burn my trinket to peel and then got shattered while I was mace stunned in berserker stance.

But I mean at the beginning of season 2 I could see it doing really well.

Hey all. After 2 months of waiting the games were finally played. Matchup was TvZ on Python and 2 games were played before he called it quits. 2-0 in my favor. Games were played at the office and I forgot to e-mail the reps to myself so I could post them but rest assured that they will be posted Monday.

Don't expect any amazing play on my part, I'm D/D- at best. Was still very one sided. I just rax/cc'ed and rolled out when I felt like it while he went what looked like 9 pool game 1 and 12 hatch game 2.

if he actually thinks wow requires more skill then SC then there is a 0% chance that he is any good at starcraft, and you will crush him easily. Or he could just be trolling you

Yeah.

Also : rofl@ how some people use trolling.

I play both WoW and SC and while people who say SC takes more skill are definitely correct, WoW does take more skill than most people give it credit for

SC requires alot more raw skill at top level, but WoW requires more twitch and periferal vision.

Also WoW is hardly a grind, Takes about a week to get to level 80, then its working your way up the ladder from there. WoW just sucks because it's imbalanced.

lol, a week if you play 24/7 and have triple rest experience from invite-a-friend, along with hierloom items

if WoW is anything, it's a grind, because once you get to the level max, you just switch from grinding experience to grinding honor (pvp) or grinding instances (pve)
