So, the question is simple: Which classes do you think will be best in WotLK pvp, as the Poll Question states already..? Will it stay the same as it is now? Will other classes be better?
Say what class and specc you think and why.

What classes do you think would be the best in WotLK PvP?

Hunter
Warlock
Rogue
Warrior
Paladin
Death Knight
Druid
Mage
Priest
Shaman

Death Knight; simply because I'm playing one now lol.  My frosty has pretty decent burst damage and cc.

Unless some serious balance issues are introduced, I think it's hard to determine which calss(es) will dominate in PvP.

Death knights are fun but over-rated and no match for paladins.  I'm not sure how good they'll be in end-game pvp but my money's on paladins unless they get more seriously nerfed.

Err... yeah.  It's called 'Retribution.'

The problem with the spec is it's not all that in groups, but for picking off zerging idiots, there's none better.  It is very, very, very hard to win a 1v1 against a ret pally.

In every country and in every age, the priest has been hostile to liberty. He is always in alliance with the despot, abetting his abuses in return for protection to his own.

I had to vote shaman, even though people will laugh.

But out of the list, enhancement shaman are the only class that has a 75% win rate against my frost mage.

DKs were tough for awhile because nobody knew what their limitations were.  Now they are pretty easy to beat ( as a frost mage).  Ret pallys are fine.. they are a bit like rogues, if you survive the first 3 seconds you win.  They were the FOTM last month, which means the 'bad players' are still trying to play them on dumb-mode and win.

Restro druids are just hard to kill.  it's not like you lose to them, but you also rarely get a HK while fighting them.  The real secret is to just let them run.  Most people end up dying to someone else while they haplessly chase a druid around.

They could kill almost anything in beta and in a few days after 3.0.1 was out(boosting 1400tards at 2200 easily).

On topic: Frost Mage.

Say whatever you want, a good Frost Mage will destroy anything else, even if the opponent is as skilled as the frost mage.

omg.. don't nerfz my frost mage.

But yeah.  Frost mages definitely have a lot of useful abilities but most of them require good timing.  They are probably the exact opposite of rogues and fire mages who just basically spam the same 3 buttons and don't have to react to anything.
