strange day for 2v2

My pvp day was split, me and my partner needed to finish our games. So we started the queue, 7-8 min queues for 2v2. We haven't seen that for 3 months, and we needed to finish. Anyways, had about half an hour before raid too, so we thought we had plenty of time. But only got 3 in. So the order of the 2 matches was 1st one was pre-raid, 2nd one was post raid

First one was me (elemental shaman) with resto druid partner. Note here - we are specced for PvE. Thus he pops into a tree near the end if we're going to win just to taunt the other people.

Anyways, we run up against a rogue/rogue combo. They do the stun lock thing on me, but the druid keeps me up. They decide to rape the druid, they do. But I get one to about 15% and another to about 70% with lightning bolts and chain lightning. So druid dies and I'm up against 2 rogues. My worst nightmare. especially mace specced. Luckily one crit frost shock later and 1 is down.

Last rogue comes at me, I hit frost shock to slow him down, and my searing totem is and has been down. My health is dropping but so is his, he's got about 1500 life left, I get a frost shock off, praying for a crit, no luck. He hits me, I'm down to 150 health, and bam, searing totem crits on him, game over. I win.

I've never beat a rogue 1v1, let alone 2v1.


2nd strange battle was after a raid, we needed to get our games in or else not get points. I was resto for raid as we needed more healers on Kalecgos. So I run to the bank and get my gear, he queues us, and it pops on us within seconds. I have to run to the trainer in SW to untalent. Take the queue or forfeit the game. So I get in right before the game starts. So while we're fighting, I'm trying to respec and fight at the same time. Bad idea, but druid is good and keeps me up. We're up against a warrior priest combo. So I'm getting mana drained like crazy, which in retrospect is good because once I got drained, they pretty much left me alone, which gave me a chance to finish respeccing. I finally get it done about 1 min into the game. Got some mana, and target the warrior, and everything works. Lightning overloads, crits, just start going off. Warrior gets low, and druid cyclones the priest just as a heal is about to go off, My lightning bolt crits, warrior down. Then we rape the priest.


Strange but interesting start to our 2v2 season.
