4 comps
A5s Melee Cleave
The default competitive 5s archetype: stacked melee burst (warrior + rogue) behind two or three healers. 5s in TBC is less rigid than 2s/3s — think in team archetypes, and melee cleave is the highest-floor one.
BTSG (Warrior / Warrior / Shaman)
'Double warrior.' The TBC stand-in for melee cleave: two warriors train a target with instant Mortal Strike pressure while a Resto Shaman keeps them up. Ignores CC setups, gets kited by casters. High floor, capped ceiling.
BWarrior / 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.
CTurbocleave (Warrior / Enhance / Druid)
Turbocleave is the purest expression of raw melee tempo in Season 2: an Arms Warrior and an Enhancement Shaman glue themselves to one target while a Resto Druid keeps them topped. It has no setup, no CC chains, and no plan B. You simply hit one thing so hard, so fast, that the enemy healer runs out of mana or globals before your Druid does.
