thing is, you complain about a non-blocking character plays defensive vs a physical char with great fcr frames.. It's like complaining about amas who wsg away from most of their opponents. It's the fucking nature of the char, if you played a non-block nec would you jump the bvc all the time or play really offensive? No you wouldn't because that's being a fucking retard.
I agree about mb necs having more room for errors and that's why most people say that "only people with no skeellls play mb necuuur".
I've played versus many decent and some really good bvc's, I ain't good, hell I'm barely decent on nec but it tends to be quite even matches. I have never, EVER, been 1-hitted with zerk vs any barb on my nec because I use something called bone armor (wooooow) and it's quite effective. Never been killed by one ww either for that matter.
Ok, my lasts posts were a bit abrasive, and in some respects I agree with you..
However,
First things first, BONE ARMOR DOES NOT reduce dmg of zerk, zerk goes right through it.. People can vouch this.
Second issue, i'm not saying they should be less l8z, I am simply saying, that the philosophy of non blocks being better, is based more upon their style than actual char, and that style on occasion can be overly l8z
And as far as necs dying easily, They can do excellent defensive maneuvers, like using bone armor, stacking w/ golem, bone prison etc etc, the point i'm making is, once it drops, if a barb can make a clean sweep w/ ww it should be almost 1 whirl, maybe 2.
BLOCK Necs have issues like block lock etc..

MB honestly isn't needed.
You can get to 60% using SS (eld'd) with dex life fcr rings, 2/20/dex/life ammy, 2/20/dex/life circ
You can just walk away from their ww and spirit them.
Bone armor stops a decent amount of the damage if they nick you.
Barb was my main.
Never had a problem beating good Necromancers (non block or block).
And yeah, this is true, a block setup like that, will get the job done

However, personally i'd try to do with a raven so not frozen

:D

imo:
Nb nec >> Barb on East
With No oak on barb + prison being gm, just don't really see this matchup being even.
On europe with oak on barb, I'd say its kinna even.. ping on barb makes a huge difference though.. a very good 63 fcr oak barb with eud2pk ping is a pain, and block would be useful vs these although I think the matchup can be "doable" with vita.
Matchup wise, with block or non block, it's doable for either char, either way,
Just as far as Skill goes, imo ability to stay somewhat onscreen, lock w/ spirits/spear, while prisoning is 10x more fun than, l8z ibs spamming, and hiding in old prisons,
Just my opinion
