7 comps
ALSD (Lock / Shaman / Druid)
A control-attrition comp that got stronger as TBC went on. Elemental Shaman utility + double Fear + Cyclone create relentless control while DoTs grind the enemy out. Wins the long game against almost anyone.
ARLD (Rogue / Lock / Druid)
RLD is the patient control comp: a Subtlety Rogue dictating tempo, an Affliction Warlock rotting both targets while draining their mana, and a Resto Druid who simply refuses to die. You don't need a 3-second kill — you need one clean Blind-and-Cyclone chain on their healer while the DoTs and drains have already put the enemy team into triage.
AWarlock / Resto Druid
The definitive sustain team of Season 2: an SL/SL Affliction Warlock and a Resto Druid who simply refuse to die. You don't burst anyone down — you blanket the enemy in rot, chain-Fear their healer into oblivion, and win the mana game every single time.
B5s 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.
BResto Druid / Warrior
A mobile, high-skill comp. The druid kites and HoTs while Cyclone locks the enemy healer out of a kill; the warrior applies Mortal Strike pressure. Rewards elite kiting, punishes everything else.
BRet 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.
CDouble-Healer Hunter (Hunter / Priest / Druid)
A defensive fortress built to win the long game. Two healers keep everyone standing while the hunter drains mana with Viper Sting and traps the enemy out of every kill window. You don't burst teams down — you starve them out and grind until they crack.
