There's a couple of problems with that statement, Jester. Blizz has decided that 5v5 is supposed to be the premier bracket. Thats why they are hosting a world championship for it, and that's why it's worth so many more points.
The other problem is that it taking balance in the opposite direction of where it needs to go. Paladins see a huge benefit from this, and warriors too, but they are already too strong. Druids are one of the weaker classes in arenas, and this hurts a ton.
MS and pallies need to be taken down several pegs. They are just silly right now. They should rethink the 5v5 > all paradim, which could quite possibly lead to a system where rogues dominate 2v2 but are a liability in 5v5. As long as the point totals are the same, and goodies like the world tournament are the same, I'd be ok with that.
