I think it was removed because everyone from the forum trolls to the Warcraft Radio hosts were making cracks about "Mortal Strike being Blizzard's new bandaid for everything"; on one of the latest Warcraft Anonymous or MaxSpeed podcasts I think, they were making jokes about "fixing" other classes, resulting in adding a heal debuff to spells like Smite, becoming "MORTAL SMITE!" and adding one to Ambush or Backstab, making it MORTAL AMBUSH/MORTAL BACKSTAB, and MORTALFIRE spam from druids, or give Treants Mortal Strike making them gods...lol
Yeah, Blizzard's blushing from embarassment and will most likely not give anyone else mortal strike effects for awhile at this point. ;) On a related note, they reverted the Drinking change too, aka they wised up and made the change only affect arenas, no fucking retarded "HURR HURR HURR I GET NO REGEN FOR 4 SECONDS HALF REGEN FOR 2 SECONDS THEN NORMAL REGEN WHICH FUCKS PVE UP MORE THAN A WELL-ENDOWED TAUREN ON VIAGRA WOULD" lol; good fucking riddance to that change I say, YOU DO NOT FUCK WITH WATER IN PVE, PERIOD.
