What class are you playing as and what class is countering you the hardest in the lvl 19 bracket?

I'm personally playing as a rogue, so hunters are an obvious counter for me with their hunter's mark and wing clip etc. Frost mages are kind of annoying as well, but their health is low and they don't have any shields until lvl 20

Surprised you don't have trouble with warriors, I kite rogues all day. For me it is mages, especially when there is one on defense for the FC. Makes it almost impossible for me to commit. Not really too worried about most other classes
 
When playing rogue a good mage/druid can be a problem. For warrior (gnome) it's probably locks/priests. Speaking from a pug perspective.

So tell me you can purify serpent sting, and freedom conc, what's the issue? You're telling me shamans who can purge your freedom > earthbind after purging your freedom and shock your heals aren't an issue?

I'd imagine shaman would be a real issue. Purge off BOF, kick every heal, consistent damage, with a slow on top.

I play druid mainly. A root-spec hunter, warrior or mage that knows how to time their cast & slow me would be my biggest problem. Dorks that chain bombs on my jumps are pretty annoying as well

Hate to break it to you, but we hard counter them, bud.

1. Equip sword and shield.
2. Backstrafe toward Hunter while you fight their pet.
3. Use Blessing of Freedom when they Conc shot you or Wing Clip you.
4. If they Wing Clip you during your 4 sec BoF downtime, use Hammer of Justice or Blessing of Protection.
5. Win.

Ok make it 2 skilled hunters on you at the same time what do you do now? Point is hunter is easily the most annoying class.

Earthbind never gets me kind of sucks in classic or most of the time shamans do not drop it correctly. Sure they purge but thats all they can do, never been killed by a shaman.

Because it applys to 19s as well.

Not necessary. Just because class X counters class Y at level 19, that does not indicate that class X will counter class Y at 29 as well.

Classes at 19 are far from obtaining their entire kit, and aren't clear representations of what their class is. There are a lot of key abilities that are implemented in the 20's that opens up doors and new counters.

For example, warlock is argued as such a shit class at 19, and they lose to pretty much everything. But at 39 they're literally godlike. Contributing your perspective at 29 is inconclusive here when the thread is pertinent towards 19s.

I just gave you the solution to your "Hunter countering Pally" problem.

If I gave you a solution to a 2 Hunter v 1 Paladin problem, you would probably just say "ya but wut about 3 HuNtErs??".
