Arena.
I get a lot of questions about arena when I'm walking through town, and my typical response is if I really cared about winning arena, I wouldn't be bringing in a prot pally geared in +defense as my main. I'm in it for the freebie gear - using the system like everyone else.
At any rate, I was faced against the same T3/T4 1850+ team for at least 6 of my 10 matches my first week, so of course, I ended it at 0-10. However, two teams I ran up against this week were stunned by my opening attack.. and although they both tried after being immediately down 4-5, they couldn't budge past an opening chain lightning off cooldown:

2-18 overall! I suck, but I can't say I care. It just means that some teams are REALLY bad. :)
I don't care enough to reset my team to get a fresh 1500 rating every week, even if it takes me a week or two longer to get loot. I'm more in it for a LOW rating, so those few teams that do lose to me are in for major humiliation.
