Warlock/Warrior

VS.

Druid/Warrior

We've had a lot of success against Druid/Warrior teams, in fact we probably win 80-90% of what we face (granted we haven't been above 2020).

The goal here is to prevent their Warrior from charging the Warlock. If you can start with DoTs and Line of Sight; Great! If not, have your Warrior charge him while you DoT him fully. Most Warriors will chase the warlock around, leaving your Warrior free to DPS them. Keep out of LOS, and keep an eye on the Druid. As soon as the Druid pops out of stealth, your Warrior should jump straight on them. Put a full row of DoTs on the Druid. Now its time to drag the Warrior away from his healer.

The Druid will likely run away from your Warrior, your Warlock should keep running in the opposite direction with their Warrior chasing you- keep them out of LOS of each other if possible. Have the Druid on focus and Spell Lock any Cyclones he tries to put on your Warrior. Your Warrior should Spell Reflect Natures Grasp if possible and Pummel what you cant Spell Lock. Devour roots off your Warrior. If things go to plan, usually at this point both the Druid and the Warrior are very low on health. You should be away from the Druid focusing the Warrior and your Warrior should just about have their Druid finished. Often you will die at the end of this match, but it hardly matters when your Warrior is at full health and theirs is at 20%.

If their Warrior is smart and will not follow you, just keep DoTs up on both of them and pressure the Druid hard - Death Coil for the kill, etc. We also win a lot of games where I let their Warrior beat on me while both myself and my Warrior kill their Druid.

Kill the druid. Me and my partner have never lost to a druid war, or any team with a druid. Kill kill kill the druid, keeping DoT's on both. With the wariror pummeling cyclones and entanglnig roots, trinketing nature's grasp, and the lock tossing out both a Death Coil and any Nightfall procs at the druid, he doesn't stand a chance. And if by some miracle you and your lock are unable to kill the druid because you aren't good enough at playing your clases or you get extreme bad luck, turn and kill the war when the druid runs away. He should be at 40% or so from DoT's from the start. GG

Most druids in trouble, especially higher rated, will have their warrior just intercept spamstring the opposing warrior. at that time the druid is free to pillar hump and throw hots as needed not to mention how easy it is for a druid to cc a warrior. and as stated in other post, with fear as your only CC 95% of the time this comp isn't gonna have the mobility nor the dps to kill a good druid.
