5 comps

HunterPriestB

Hunter / Disc Priest

Hunter/Disc Priest is a patient attrition comp that wins by strangling the enemy healer's mana rather than out-bursting the lobby. The hunter kites at range chipping away with Viper Sting while the priest layers Mana Burn, and when the enemy pool runs dry a single Bestial Wrath window ends the game. It is a control comp that rewards discipline, map awareness, and knowing exactly when to commit your cooldowns.

Control
MagePaladinB

Mage / Holy Paladin

Mage/Holy Paladin is the patient control comp of the 2s bracket: two of the best CC toolkits in the game stapled to the strongest single-target healer. You rarely burst anyone down — instead you kite, Polymorph, and Mana Burn until the enemy healer is out of gas, then delete their partner in one frozen window. It is a grind, not a race.

Control
PaladinDruidB

Ret Paladin / Resto Druid

'Ret/Druid.' A sustain-and-control comp that wins by outlasting: the druid rolls HoTs and chains Cyclone/Roots/Bash while the Ret adds Repentance and a Hammer of Justice stun. Blessing of Sacrifice and Freedom keep the druid free, and layered CC on the enemy healer eventually forces the kill.

Sustain
PaladinShamanB

Ret Paladin / Resto Shaman

A pure burst comp built to delete a target inside one Windfury-and-Bloodlust window before the enemy healer can react. The Ret hits like a truck under Judgement and Crusader Strike, the Shaman pockets him with Earth Shield and Grounding Totem, and the whole game is about landing that one explosive swing. No Mortal Strike means you win in seconds or not at all.

Burst
WarriorShamanB

Warrior / Resto Shaman

Horde cleave at its most direct: Windfury Totem and Bloodlust turn the arms warrior's Mortal Strike into an instant-kill window while a Resto Shaman refuses to die behind Earth Shield and totems. Purge strips the enemy healer bare between swaps. It trains and swaps rather than kites, so control comps that lock the shaman down are the entire problem to solve.
