Shadow Priest / Rogue vs. Paladin / Warlock 2v2 Arena Strategy

I like to think of this team as a nerfed Druid/Lock simply for the fact that they have a lot less crowd control and a pally can’t even kite half as well as a druid.

Rogue Arena Strategy
Alright well as soon as the lock sees your partner you just off the bat you know he’s going to sick his pet on him. So go in for the sap real quick, then go all out on the pally. Be aware of CC from the lock, and call out the pally’s bubble. Do everything in your power to down the pally, but also be cooldown smart. Once the pally is down take out the lock’s pet to give your partner a little breathing room.

Priest Arena Strategy
What I suggest doing is mounting up and getting to that pally to help with damage asap. Fear the lock and set him up for a blind if possible(you can’t have him sapped this game unless you take out the pet)get ready at about 20-30% for the pally to pop his bubble, dispel and hit him with a quick silence if you have the cooldown up. Once the pally is down still be careful of the lock, as they can be real rough on a rogue without both sets of cooldowns.

Shadow Priest / Rogue vs. Shadow Priest / Rogue 2v2 Arena Strategy

Nobody likes these, and to be quite honest this fight comes down to racials. If you’re Undead gratz you made the right race choice as the other team is going to be struggling with you. You know unless they happen to be undead too…

Rogue Arena Strategy
If you see the opposing rogue it’s never a bad idea to sap. Anyways open up on the priest and do everything in your power to get him down as fast as possible. You will want to blind/sap the rogue if you’re permitted to do so.

Priest Arena Strategy
The opposing rogue will be starting on you, and you’ll probably want to do as much damage and give out as many DoTs as you can before this happens. If you’re opponents are undead a CC train is almost out of the question.

In the end this fight will come down to luck and your amount of damage, best of luck to you.

Shadow Priest / Rogue vs. Shaman / Warrior 2v2 Arena Strategy

This team has an advantage over Priest/Rogue, but not over you!
Rogue Arena Strategy
Alright you just want to start off the combat quick in this match. Sap the warrior(Shadowstep sap if he’s like right next to his shaman partner). Open up on the shaman and unload. The warrior will probably try to lock you down so Ghostly Strike + Evasion and continue to unload on the shaman. You’ll also want to conserve energy for kicks, as they shaman will be spam healing themselves every time they don’t move

Priest Arena Strategy
Using your mount get to the shaman ASAP. Unload damage upon him, and help your rogue with interrupts via silence. Fear bomb every now and again to give your rogue or yourself some breathing room from the warrior.

Very simple match-up, have fun!
