Personally I like the 2v2 the best, because it's more personal, easier to interact with your team and less targets. It's more intense than a 5v5 honestly because it's all focus fire and as a Mage in a 5v5 which is my 2nd favorite, I AOE. 3v3 i used to like but not really because I'd always get stuck with 3 healers.

Best 2v2 = Paladin / Warrior
Best 3v3 = Rogue / Mage / Priest
Best 5v5 = Hunter / Warlock / Rogue / Mage / Shaman

I'm actually experimenting with a 5v5 right now I have that same setup right now but with a Paladin instead. The paladin was not a healer, he was ret, human, and it was a fresh team that I just bought, at a 1500 rating, we went 8-2. It was actually a really good setup, the other teams had a hard time choosing who to burst dps and they wasted it all on me the first 5 rounds, which was a bad decision... trying to kill ME? We were all S2/3 and destroying S3/4's and some even all Brutals. Full dps. On a 2v2 I also like to go without a healer, my first was a Mage / Paladin, and then to a Mage / Warlock. That went okay, Mage / Priest didn't go too well, not enough dps. I like to bring another CC along in case we face a Mana Burning wimp, burst dps on the other guy while CC'ing Priest, and Warlocks have good CC against casters.

For 3v3's I've tried the RPM (Rogue / Priest / Mage) and it's not too bad but I always end up picking up a Rogue in greens or PvE epics. I see the priest getthing stunlocked a lot and all undead are immune to Fear so I always end up taking on the rogue and making my party force dps on their stunning cc, but if there's EVER a Paladin out of all them, we take that one down first for an early bubble pop.

Unless they nerfed druids when I wasn't paying attention, Druid/Warrior is better than Paladin/Warrior in 2s. Paladin/Warrior is still good, just... not as much. D:

For my 2v2 I hit 2k+ with rogue/rogue. Its fun, its fast, and its not a matter of waiting till someone runs out of mana. Healer teams can go to hell.
I don't see why people are so fond of Rogue/mage. We fought a few teams like that and didn't have a problem.

However my rogue got her Gladiator title in 3s
For 3v3 I like Rogue, Warrior and Shaman. Why? Windfury 3nodding Windfury is so much fun. I would also consider lvling a hunter to go Survival hunter,war and shaman since hunters get free S4 weps.
I also speced mutilate and grouped with 2 shadow priests for 3v3 and messed around the 1900 bracket.
I personally have no respect for PRM teams, I think its boring.

My locks got her PR with a holy pally in 2s. I had fun with that.


But their is one 3v3 combo that really grinds my nerves. War, Holy pally and Resto Shaman or druid..... scream and the worse part is, it works.

I personally play disc priest rogue in 2v2, I took a break for S3 which I'm starting to regret because right now I'm stuck at about 1760 2s rating getting all 100% vengeful people :/. I played S2 with priest/rogue which sat at around 2k the majority of the season. The best combo though would have to be Warrior/Druid just because druids are so ******** over powered and any idiot can play a warrior with ease. 3s Druid Hunter Priest works nicely unless you find yourself up against a melee train (Shammy,War,pally) and for 5s I roll euro comp.

2v2- Druid/warrior
Rogue/Rogue (If they are good. We had a rogue/rogue team at the top of reckoning for months)

3v3- Mage/Priest/Rogue
Druid/Warrior/Rogue

5v5- Triple Melee/Shaman/Priest
Euro Comp

Rogue Mage and Rogue Priest is the most scary I have seen yet.

Pally Warr isn't effecient depending who you're fighting, we destroy those teams easy.

3v3 Rogue/Rogue/Druid

5v5

Duur I don't do 5's. >_<

I won't touch 5v5 with a ten foot pole. I'll play 3v3 as long as I'm in a group with two people who understand what their job is, and as long as both of the people can handle who it is they're assigned to.

So with that said I preferably stick to 2v2. Currently I have two parteners for it, and it can be total hell for me.

From personal experience, and for the class I play, I'd have to say the toughest combos for me to beat are Rogue/Priest, Rogue/Rogue, Mage/Rogue and of course Warrior/Priest.

This is assuming that they know what they're doing, there have been occasions where a partner and myself will steam roll over a pair listed above, but that's simply because they messed something up or just didn't know their class.

D': It's also just a very difficult experience in 2v2 when you're in enhance shaman, I have to rely on my partner to have total cc, and I have to have enough burst damage straight away to be able to totally annihilate my target in less than a minute.

Ok, I hear feral druids aren't good for anything in arenas, but what is the best group I could partner with as a feral druid? In any size bracket.

2v2
Disc priest/feral druid- If you want to annoy everyone to death.
Resto druid/Feral druid- Long games but can be done. A couple of druids in my old guild got to 1900 with this comp
Rogue/Feral druid- Most popular feral druid comp in 2s
