5 comps
RMP (Rogue / Mage / Priest)
The iconic TBC 3s comp. Sap, Sheep, and Blind chain the enemy healer out of the game while the mage's Shatter combo and the rogue's stunlock delete a DPS. Pure setup, pure control, highest skill ceiling.
5s Caster Cleave
The ranged-control 5s archetype: stacked casters (mage + lock + shadow priest) layering Poly, Fear, and Cyclone behind a healer core. Kites melee cleave and kills through control — high ceiling, high coordination.
Frost Mage / Disc Priest
The anti-melee comp. A Frost Mage kites warriors and rogues into oblivion while Polymorph and Mana Burn dismantle healer teams. Shatter burst finishes anyone who gets caught in a Nova.
Shatterplay (Mage / Shadow Priest / Druid)
Shadow Priest's flagship comp and the caster answer to RMP. The Shadow Priest sets up with Silence and Mind Blast, the Frost Mage delivers the Shatter combo, and the Resto Druid layers Cyclone for a second hard CC. Pure setup control with two schools of instant crowd control instead of one.
MLP (Mage / Lock / Priest)
MLP is caster control with a disc priest instead of a druid. Polymorph, Fear, and Psychic Scream chain the enemy into permanent lockdown while the mage's Shatter combo and the priest's Mana Burn give it two independent ways to win. Trades MLD's kiting for harder healer control and a real drain game.
