How to Play
Warlock and Shadow Priest both apply DoT pressure while the Shaman heals and interrupts with Earth Shock; heavy attrition comp that wins by outlasting burst windows over a long fight.
Common Matchups
Ranked from hardest matchup to easiest.
vs
RMP
Counter
+
+
Your DoTs are too slow against their burst - Fear/Psychic Scream on the Rogue's engage rather than trying to trade early.
vs
Warrior Turbo
Even
+
+
Kite when possible and keep DoTs rolling on the healer to punish any overextension.
vs
Mirror match
Even
+
+
Two DoT-heavy teams - whoever lands Fear/Psychic Scream on the enemy Shaman first usually builds the lead that decides it.
vs
2-Healer Warrior
Favored
+
+
Long grind favors your DoT uptime - Earth Shock the bigger heals to slowly pull ahead.
