Arena Season 3: Mage, Priest, Rogue

[Artega]

I think another weakness of your team is that you're weak to enemy crowd control as well. While you certainly do have a great deal of CC on your side (Blind, Sheep, Fear, snares/roots), your Priest is the sole person on your team that can counter enemy CC (and even then only Magic effects; you can't do anything against Poisons), and you're additionally weak to enemy dispellers. Personally, I'd try and keep the Priest either locked down or CC'd, mash the Rogue, force the Mage to Skill Block™, then eradicate the Priest while keeping the Mage locked down.

*We got up to 2249 once, a mere 30-40 points away from Gladiator rank. Then we'd hit a losing skid, and just never get it back. After spending weeks between 2220-2240, we couldn't hold onto it in the last week while watching win-trading farm teams move up, and title-purchasing cheaters get special netherdrake mounts they don't deserve. The system is flawed, Blizzard. Fix it. "Personal Ratings" only fix the problem halfway, and don't stop the win-trading that is rampant at the end of both seasons. The rating needed to get Gladiator was increasing by 5-10 points per week until the last week, when it then shot up by 50. This is not some coincidental thing; it's a direct result of win trading and purchased titles that have ruined the system. Every jerkoff who paid someone to farm them up in rating to get Gladiator pushes someone else out, and in the end the top spots are really going to the same players over and over on multiple teams. The Gladiator title means very little when anyone can cheese the system so readily. Yeah, QQ more, I know.

This is one of many problems. I also think that teams should not be allowed to carry points from season to season; being able to start off with two or even three pieces of the new set is absolutely ludicrous.
