it's not the same, you have a trap using chaos then it negates the wsg aspect from fpks, druids / necs cant wsg spear/nado when a trap has chaos on. Plus sins can stun even longer when wwing someone with swirls, removes any fun from the fpk

it's definitely not the same as a druid using shockwave, since shockwave is only viable vs other druids or sorcs..



It's a double edged sword, though, because having your sin teleport on the target to whirl instead of staying back and MBing through the lock exposes the sin.

No idea why he compared it to SW though, why do you need to apply swirly from Druid when you have a sin anyway and the druid should be looking for stun/protecting his team instead of wasting time in bear

the sin is exposed either way if she's stood still mbing someone or jumping on a swirled target to ww

Hdins are jokes, it just seems silly to me that I have to pull my punches when challenged 1v1 or 2v2 by "fpk" rules and I cannot use ww on my trapper.

idk, maybe ghost is the most overpowered class in the game, but I come from a time where people didn't make rules and excuses when they had trouble with a matchup, they instead found novel ways to win the matchup instead.

Once upon a time, druids got owned by sins, then they figured out frw and wsg was the way forward.

Once upon a time, necros got owned by druids cuz of minion stack, then they too figured out frw and teeth/spear is the technique to win.

It is all about improving the meta, and I abide by rules, but I am certainly going to challenge them with what I consider a somewhat logical argument if I think they are holding us back.

Yea, but it used to be a lot more one sided until some particularly crafty players learned how to tilt the matchup in their favor. Druids still have adv, but a good nec can certainly win now too. I remember back when necros used to refuse to duel druids. Then came along Subversus and Marvel...

Eh those videos of Austin chasing down Brock on d2pk make me think otherwise. 75/25 maybe, but not 90/10 by any means for a good nec.

You aren't very smart though this is the biggest reason you ran to lad pvm. I mean you literally were 100% worthless in every encounter I've seen you in. So I don't think your opinion is anything people are concerned about.
