First Week of Season 2, and some info from the EU finals

First of all, sorry for the lack of updates, i wanted to wait until i had done some arena in the new season.

2v2. I joined my good friend Blackdown's 2v2 team called Body Attak(dont laugh at the spelling error, Attack was taken :P) Seeing as my mate Mahalik is going to migrate away to Tarren mill, i wanted to practise a bit with Blackdown first. Now firstly i LOVE the Mage/Rogue team, i feel we dont have any hard counters, in the same way War/Pala counters Rogue/Rogue, and the same way Spriest/Lock counters War/Pala. We got some hard matchups but nothing we cannot handle with some smart play. Now we only played 6 matches, due to the fact that i got to get up at 5:45 for work and the queues are horribly long. We lost one to Druid/Rogue, i blame that on the fact it was kind of laggy and Blackdown's Vanish bugged out, but hey enough excuses :P I belive we made some mistakes in our play, me included and that costed us the match. The rest we won, but sadly we never met any good opponents, like this Frost mage/Priest, were the mage didnt even iceblock the sap, or tried to use his pvp trinket on it. However i still believe 100% that we can push our team to 2000+ with alot of practise, both of us are extremely well geared and ready to start on season 2 for real.Oh yea, wanna send out a cheers to Nimra and Szwok for making top10 in the battlegroup, awesome job guys, just watch out for when we get up there too :P

5v5. We had alot of fun tonight playing with the 4dps setup, We also had the "pleasure" of meeting our counter team, 3 healers 2 dps, 2 Wars/Pala/Priest/Shaman. We beat them in the first match when we met them in Ruins of Lordaeron, but later lost 2 times in a row after meeting them in Blades Edge, i believe the extra room we had for kiting in Lordaeron really helped the first match, also they werent really focusing effectively on one of us, so we could easily outlast their dps while CCing the healers and picking them down one by one. The later 2 matches however.... didn't go so well. They effectively downed our warlock and rogue pretty fast, while we only had the priest down. They seemed very well geared, and very exprienced though, so i am 100% sure we can beat that kind of setup once we get better ourselfes. Like with my 2v2 team i really believe we can push it to 2000+ rating with our setup, all our players are really good, and we all want to get a high rating, we finished last season with a rating of 1700, and we hadn't had that much practise at that point. But then again, thats just my arrogant self talking as always :)

EU Finals:
Ill update on those tomorrow, its bed time for me now :)
