    No… you can’t just re-write history.

    This is you bringing up a 1v1 issue and basically saying it was okay for melees to have a free kill when a caster is alone. You went even further to say one player should shut down almost all of another’s abilities and their only option should be to run away. I checked you because this is a horribly bias statement that has made all of your other comments invalid. You claim it is better for the “team”, but when it comes down to it you expect melee to be OP. In your “team” game it is okay for a melee player to run around solo and kill certain archetypes easily. So in other words please stop with this fake intellectual “team” debate.

    No, this was me saying a Mage Caught alone. That does not mean 1 v 1. That means someone caught out of position. Period. You're the one who inferrs that they are caught alone by a single individual. Try again.

    As I said before. A Melee meeting a mage 1 v 1 should result in the Melee getting CCed, repeatedly if necessary. That can result in the melee running away in fear of the enemy team approaching. If the team is collapsing, then that's a dead melee. If the Mage was simply overextended, then no that's a dead mage and a fool.

    A mage caught out alone and killed is missposition by the mage. It's not a matter of Melee being OP. It's the rules of the game. Play by them or don't play.

    A mage being singled out by an enemy team in group play means the team should be defending their mage, as the mage's uninterrupted casts can swing a fight in their favor. It becomes a tug of war of which mages can get their casts off and which team can interrupt their mages enough to gain an advantage in the fight. That's team dynamics.

    It sounds like you don't get the basics of PvP. There will always be a rock-paper-scissors situation in PvP, if there is not, there is no team dynamic. I'm done going in circles with you on this issue.

    Yeah right... So you made that point to say that mages should only be concerned about interruptions when surrounded by another team? Who cares about a mage getting caught alone and surrounded by another team? Any player should die in that situation. Talk about a strawman argument.

    You have a lot to learn about PvP. This "team" dynamic in which caster shouldn't be allowed to fight against a melee on a even playing field is a theory of your own. No player should prevent 70-80% of another players abilities merely by targeting them. Spells should be interrupted by interruptions and CC alone. That's why melee have them.
