We jump on the Warrior initially. Don't allow their Warrior to get their Charge off on the Priest. Have your Warrior and theirs toe to toe for a while, keeping in mind that their Warrior will not be allowed to gain rage while beating on a shield.
The Priest should be nudging his way in closer but staying out of LoS of Intercept other than to throw instant heals on your Warrior, dispel their Warrior, and Fear the Druid.
That is really how the match is won. Get close enough to the Druid to fear him, get him to trinket, then have your Warrior Fear the Druid. PI and burst their Warrior, and Fear the Druid when he gets back.
Keeping HoTs off their Warrior (Yes, even Lifebloom) is a must. Make sure he and the Druid are both fully dispelled ASAP. And make sure to be watching for Innervate. Your Warrior really needs to be watching where their Druid is at all times, eating too many Cyclones and Roots will cost you the game.
An alternative way to fight this team is to allow the two Warriors to square off at the start and have your Priest bait an Intercept when the Warrior is ~60% PI and burst him with the Warrior.

| We seem to beat this makeup only about half the time. The difference maker is whether the Warrior has S3 mace or not. If he does, I gotta get him off me at all costs, these are the matches we tend to lose. Otherwise, we can dps the Druid down with the Warrior on me probably, these are the matches we tend to win. I'll def consider that for when the Warrior has S3 mace. | |

| a tactic i reckon works is having your warrior just sit on their, proccing imp hamstring and mace stuns while your priests kites around a pillar, and when hamstring wears off and you can get a fear on the druid, burst warrior down. | |

| Isn't this setup nearly impossible to win on some maps? It really seems hard to get Gustor's tactic done on Ruins with very little LOS or pillars to make use of. | |

| The problem I have as the priest is keeping the warrior off me. Even if I successfully LoS, the druid will eventually feral charge or root me long enough for the warrior to get to me and then it's usually game over since it's almost impossible to get in range of a druid to fear with hamstring. | |

| to Ashkai: Your warrior has to kinda charge in alone and you stay as far back as possible at the start. After that you'd stay at max range just to PW:Shield, dispel their warrior a bit, keep renew up, maybe throw up SW:P, ETC. If their warrior does manage to get on you, your warrior should intercept when their warrior intercepts, use intervene whenever possible, disarm when your under a lot of pressure, and most importantly be spamming hamstring in hope of an imp hamstring or macestun proc. You would be kiting the warrior (pillar humping) and fearing the druid if he feral charges you, or if he just gets to close (and maybe warrior if he has no fear immunities up, even if it just uses up a GCD, it helps). Also when you're on the move dispel their warrior's hots, put up SW:P on their warrior, ETC. Reflecting a cyclone or roots (roots forced him to shift which burns mana) is also good but your warrior should focus on line of sighting them. | |

| Priest wont be able to catch the druid with the warrior pounding him. If the druid's warrior gets to far behind he will cyclone the priest or the warrior, It really is a wash for warrior/druid if they are smart | |

| Quick question. As the warrior, what exactly do I do when the druid uses this rotation: (comes out of stealth) cyclone, entangle roots, bear stun, cyclone, entangle roots. Even if I trinket out of the cyclone and intercept, he uses nature's grasp and I end up entangle rooted regardless, and the whole rotation continues without my trinket. I find this happens to me a LOT, despite my best efforts to LOS (LOSing isn't such a big problem in the blades edge arena, but in the other 2..) | |

| Would it be viable to try intercepting the druid? If their warrior intercepts my warrior, fine, he can't intercept the priest now. If thier warrior sticks to my priest, my warrior can chase off the druid, returning to help the priest kill the warrior whenever intercept is off of cooldown. When the druid starts to return, intercept him again. | |
