from a roleplaying kind of view, it's kind of "cool" that warlock and hunter are the main counters against a druid, since a warlock pretty much represents the opposite of what a druid stands for and a hunter, as it is already within the name, is good at hunting, meaning you, being a druid and turning into animals, gives him an advantage over your ability.

@plackiplicki35314 жыл бұрын
Careful with some of the tips in there. Rogues for example are a hard counter to non-feral Druids (to Druids who don't have Feral Faerie Fire more precisely). A geared rogue will kill you out of bear form during a single kidney shot, and there isn't much thing you can do about it. The opponents in this video are terrible (see Lock who doesn't sacrifice his voidwalker, shaman backpedaling, etc), so it's really not a good example. Go check Fainaru Furasshu vids for a better idea of what it's like to play against normal opponents.

You are missing out on a fair amount of damage by not using your combo points early via rip. For almost the entire fight with warlock you had 4 combo points from the start you never used...you typically want to rake, into a 3-4 point rip, moonfire, insect swarm, and then either kite, bear, heal, etc. The rip damage isn't make or break, but its better than 0 damage, which you had the entire time with sitting on 4 combo points.

I ranked up back in vanilla & the anti-hunter strat was the 4 piece pvp set bonus of +15% speed, as makes cat speed faster than cheetah. Still a hard fight, but it becomes an even matchup, rather than one sided aginst top hunters, as the speed lets you stay in melee far more often. Against warlocks, I needed the Naxx shadow resist off pieces. Aka, I had to cheese it with an out of combat gear swap to resist fear. Since cat form is so fast, you can break some of their fear casts by line of sight, others by shadow resist, often enough that you can out dps them.

Try killing pet for the hunter. Hunters all role beast masters first and some will decide to stay. A hunters pet can not be allowed to live in classic. The advantage is most hunter will always use wolf or cat. I think I’m the only one that uses a turtle for that armor. Granted a spell caster will have an easy time with the turtle, although that’s why pets can learn resists. Cats will have an advantage on mages, but the hunter will most likely just give you the snipes and send pet to only get the drop on you when it’s in and out of combat.

You want to have abolish poison ticking vs rogues you generally want to keep abolish poison up at all times and just let the rogue open on you in bear. I wouldn't suggest trying to open on him in cat cause if he opens on you your in cat and your really easy to do damage to. Please for the love of god use Abolish poison to preemptively remove blind once its cast. Restorative potion works as well. Also warlocks and hunters are a bit easier if you have engineering you kinda have to hibernate the hunters pet and try and reflect the freeze trap on the hunter himself. Also if your a warlock just use a felhunter vs a druid and don't leave your felhunters abilities on auto cast. Manually micro the abilities and silence/devour magic perfect times and its kinda hard to beat a good warlock. HOTW is one of the best talents in the entire game too. Anyways good video fam

Paladin is a another really hard matchup for druids. You probably won't win the mana battle against a holy paladin. All paladins can dispel your hots, and there is no engineering or natural holy resistance in the game, so their holy dmg will slice through bear armor like butter. Basically any class that can remove your hots is pretty tough, and you already talked about how hard hunters are to deal with. That is, unless you are engineering, and you time a frost reflector trinket just right. That might work in a duel, but it's going to be reallly hard to pull off in a battleground.

VS Hunter you start invis and hibernate the pet. Then you moonkin his ass solo. He will run oom before you and you win. If he fears you and does good burst combos you can get fucked. However if you keep the pressure up you win 60/40 from my experience the matchup gets harder past BWL. Aimed shot only works when he cc´s you and you can heal that up easily. Outside of that he doesn´t have the dmg to kill you in bear from. If he is BM spec you have an even easier time (hibernate).
