5s Double-Healer Control
The attrition archetype: a healer-heavy core with a warrior + mage for pressure and CC. You almost never lose a teammate first and grind the enemy out — but you need a real kill condition to close, not just survive.
Sustain
5s DPS Zerg
The all-in 5s archetype: four DPS (arms warrior, sub rogue, frost mage, SL/SL warlock) stacked behind a single discipline priest. You don't win the long game — you CC the enemy healer, dump every cooldown on one target, and delete them before your lone healer runs dry.
