Me and Trelp (A shadow priest RL friend.) have been doing arena lately. Now even though the official EU forums are filled with SP + WARLOCK OP NERF PLX!!, there isn’t much real information on how Warlocks and Shadow Priests can win and lose in arena, mostly stating facts like ‘Drain Mana removes 100% mana in 3 seconds!’ and ‘Shadow bolt crits for 500k!’.

Now I’m not saying I’m a uber player with imba skills, but below are a few details about our stats, and videos of all practice and Rated matches, which should help some people. Recently we have been getting really into 2V2 arena, there will probably be a lot of posts.

People should know I’m not a video editer, I’ve done some basic video cropping, but I’ve left everything in from the fighting so people can learn.
