What is the strangest/hardest 5v5 combination you have met?
Well, ive met 3 really strange setups :

4mages + a shammy healer
The first time i met this team i got raped because i took my time to setup and let them attack.
4 mages with full AOE in my group = dead me, very fast.
The next fight i met them again, so i went offensive and managed to kill 1 before they knew what hit them and after that picking 1 off at a time.
Bottom line with 4 mages : stay offensive and keep grounding totems up!

4hunters + a shammy healer
This combo is very easy on some arenas, and very hard on others.
On nagrand, youre in trouble if they spread out.
On blades edge its alot easier, just stay defensive and rush forward when 1 moves to far ahead.
The burst of this team is devastating, so tactic would be to stay defensive, and kill pets when they forget to pull them back.
Pets on "defensive" are always an easy kill :P

5paladins

This is by far the sickest combo ive seen.
Not too hard on any arena, stay offensive, they have no fear, no charge and most important : no ranged.
Run forward, purge, run back.
This team will most of the time stay mounted to keep some rush capability.
The team i met had S1-S2 + some PvE gear, so it was easy to kill.
Hell, the first fight we met them, 1 out of 5 paladins made the bubble in time, and the one that did, did it before i targeted him :)

So, please tell me, whats your hardest or strangest counterteam?

People pay attention to who they fight? I just target and kill.. But I did notice a far group today, 2rogues, warrior, druid, hunter. It was gay.

5 rogues.

This team knew what they were doing and very coordinated, I almost thought they were multiboxing at first. They would open up all at the same time on our clothies, then vanish.... wait forever, hide.. pop up on someone else and vanish.... it was like a predator movie.

5 Warriors.

This was just awesome. When I first saw this i knew I was going to die first (I played a warlock). But instead of charging one target, they each charged and tried to solo each member of our team. Not too bad of a tactic, but most classes can solo warriors pretty easy (or at least stay alive long enough for others to kill). Still a fun match though

hardest team i have encounterd sofar in my arena life as a multiboxer was a team with 1 resto shaman and 4 boomkins nonboxed så they pretty much stealth attacked and did som realy insane burst on me, they where also where well cordinated.

was a blast thou never knew where they come from and they burst just as hard as a 4box shaman group on the same target

Lost 4 in a row last week vs a newly started team with top gear (played them 5 times).Won once, first or second encounter, cant remember. After that they clearly learned what I was all about, and adapted very nicely. Got some problems vs this combo: Priest & shammy healer with shammy, rogue, warrior dps all melee. This particular team had 2 bloodelfs as well. Rogue and warrior was pretty coordinated in attack, and I was silenced alot of the time. Really annoying since they zerged hard every time. I enjoyed the fights though, just wish they hadn't taken 25 points from me every win.
