 | Shadow Priest/Rogue | VS. |   | Druid/Warrior |
Warrior + Druid tends to be a joke of a fight. You can win a lot of rating off of some extremely easy War/Druids. Beware, though, some Warriors are actually good at surviving, and will throw on a shield to Spell Reflect, and Intervene to save themselves.
The Warrior will start off mounted. Have your priest rush him. You should soon open on the Warrior. Just before my Cheap Shot wears off, I always blow my Evasion to avoid any annoying Hamstrings he might try to lay on me. You'll probably want to blow AR/BF from the start, with 5 points Slice and Dice or Rupture. Your Priest should spam dispels on the Warrior.
Once the Druid pops out, immediately Silence and your Priest should head towards the Druid. You should then sprint over and Blind. Make sure you do it before Silence wears off. Your Priest may or may not get in Fear range of the Druid before the trinket. Hopefully your Priest gets in range, Fears, and the fight is pretty much over right there. You can quite often get a Vanish->Sap on the Druid, due to a lack of CC breaks.
If your Priest can't get in range to fear, just forget it and concentrate on dpsing the Warrior. You can, quite often, simply out dps the Druid's heals.
If the Warrior is particularly amazing at surviving your damage for some reason (and some are), you can simply have your Priest open on the Warrior, get a Vampiric Embrace up, and once the Druid pops out, you get on him. Your Priest will usually switch to the Druid to kill him, and you shouldn't have too much trouble killing him. Just remember the things about lock/druid. Make sure you use Evasion preemptively. You'll probably want to trinket an Intercept to keep the Druid from getting away.
Sometimes, when you get on the Druid, you can simply CS->Gouge->KS->Blind. If the Druid is bad and trinkets your KS, when you Blind him, the Warrior is going to die. You can Vanish/Stealth -> Sap the Druid after the Blind, but you're going to want your Priest to fear. If you get the fear off, there's no way the Warrior will out live it. This doesn't work a lot, though, because some Druids are smart, and wait to trinket Blind. It's quite difficult to get in range for fear after the trinket, and you might get screwed with 0 wound on the warrior.

| A useful tip here. Once you face this makeup, create a quick macro like so: --- #showtooltip Silence /cast [target=DRUID'S NAME] Silence --- Stick the macro on an unused button, as soon as you see the warrior in question, do your normal thing, except spam the macro between global CDs. The druid will be silenced the moment he unstealths, also giving you instant notification of the unstealth. | |

| Deathwish, AP trinket, and Enrage will do this. Also, if the Druid pops early(ish), and more than a few yards from any LOS it is very viable for you both to hop onto him and end it within one CS / KS rotation. Add a Silence at the end and maybe a fear and it's overkill. | |
