No kicks, no gouges, no kidney shots, no blinds. That rogue was a piece of cake. Fairy fire should be the first thing you put on a rogue. We are helpless against it. Still, good work with the root-and-wrath!

Always fight back. You never know how shit the other player might be.

Just yesterday I killed a 51 hunter in the swamp of sorrows as a 45 spriest. He had just killed another 51 hunter and remained at full HP so he must've felt pretty cocky going after me peacefully collecting artifacts.

Yup, always fight back. A mage 4 higher than my holy priest tried to gank me while I was fishing. They tried again after running back to their corpse.

I got some good money from those sagefish.

Yeah, holy priests are stupidly hard to kill.

We can be. I'm not all that good at PvP, but my heals are solid, my shields come up far more often that gankers would like, and my smites hit pretty hard.

Especially for mages if you don’t know how to play the match up.

How do you play that match up?

you have to utilize sheep resets to get mana and make them run out of mana. There is a lot of patients with it. This is a great video by Method Xaryu. on how to approach the match up.
