Saturday Summer Wargames #2 Ally v. Horde

K my UI is done. Plus this SS has Cheeetoast in it, so it's automatically BiS. And Petyr why you rogue so good...
 
So I'm pretty hyped for this guys! I wanted to see some community opinions about the comps.

Just some thoughts:

1. The healer line-up (mirrored, of course) has traded the standard Mistweaver for RDruid this week. How do you guys think this is going to affect the play of games?

2. The non-mirrored DPS matchup seems to be Elemental / Balance (Alliance) vs Destruction / Arcane (Horde). Which pairing do you think will be more beneficial for their respective teams?

I'm just trying to figure out how you'll use your rdruid with your hunter and rogue at the start. Having rdruid should allow more kills on both sides since both teams have CC classes and only 1 clense. Also, alliance ofc has the upper hand at mid with the double AoE spread classes, however horde is more bursty with destro/arcane, so depending on strat and team work, it could go either way. As you said earlier, the roster looks phenomenal, really looking forward to this.

Good points but with the huge amount of horde-cc (2 Mages wtf! + WL) the alliance RShaman is automatically pressured into def-play and all Novae can theoretically be used for War/Rogue-CC as Healerassist so I dont see alliance that much on the upper hand.
But as u stated Horde lacks the big dmg...
Man I am excited, need a stream of this asap plx :)

Whats EU-latency on US realms btw?

I assume it's fairly similar to US -> EU latency, which was like 150-200 for me.

Also, I believe that Cer will be streaming the games on his twitch.

I usually get around 110-160 ms
 
Would anyone or 2 be interested doing Spector mode for streaming. The more streams the better. We aren't trying to bring more people to our bracket . We're just trying to get our existing community excited and forward to signing up on a weekly basis.
 
Just my opinion but it will highly come down to coordination and communication for the different teams. coordinated cc from horde if done right could destroy the alliance if they can withstand the burst at initial clash.

alliance will be heavily effected by the boomkins play as that could make or break the team.
horde wil be heavily effected by the warlocks ability to chain cc off of the polys and ability to coordinate burst with the others.
