How to Play
Rogue opens for burst while Shadow Priest adds Mind Flay/Shadow Word: Death damage and dispel protection - no real healer, so this comp needs to win the opener or Fear/Vanish to reset.
Common Matchups
Ranked from hardest matchup to easiest.
vs
Restoration Druid + Subtlety Rogue
Counter
+
You lose a straight attrition fight - burst hard on the opener and Psychic Scream the Druid if the first chain doesn't close it out.
vs
Frost Mage + Discipline Priest
Even
+
Dispel Power Word: Shield before committing Kidney Shot so the burst window isn't wasted.
vs
Holy Paladin + Arms Warrior
Even
+
Grind carefully - Mind Flay chip damage plus Rogue poison ticks can slowly out-damage two sustain classes if you avoid Warrior stuns.
vs
Mirror match
Even
+
No healers either side - win the opener or Psychic Scream/Vanish to reset for a second one rather than trading evenly.
