So you click insignia or what?

It's not always you can see the actual bind if you have binded it under "secondary key" atleast I cant see half my binds as they are on the secondary key and not primary in the "Wow Keybindings" in your settings.

Don't trink SAP, apparently. Did that in my first arena and got ragged for it

Oh, it's nice to be a noob again...

It depends on the situation.

Trinketing sap can be a bad move or it can be sensible.

If the comp is paladin/rogue - then more than likely you just messed up.

If the comp is something without non-DR follow-up CC and the rogue already opened, then you're probably fine.

Get enemy cooldowns above their heads, 99% arena pugs just use their damaging ability when it's off cd. Good to time meld exactly when HoJ goes off cooldown. You know when you can heal freely and when to fake that kick.

With the latency changes in WoD, the server response is a lot more reactive, and it makes landing an interrupt that much easier. Try to hold on to your interrupt when it can make a difference in the game. (Does not really apply to shaman since the cd is so low) Best time to kick is at 95% cast.

Like Bop said that's situational. In a lot of cases it can be beneficial, but if the other team has a lot of cc capability don't do it.

Take the map you're put with and give yourself the best advantage that you can. Fake jumping melee is a great way to relieve pressure, fantastic for maps such as Blades Edge, Sewers and ruins!
