Strange question, apart from the DH meta that seems prevalent from low-ruby downward, is there any strat to picking against/with a team comp?
To explain why I’m asking this, I believe a meta does exist because there is a “most played build” out of the higher ranked players in PvP, and if there are meta builds there must be counter-meta builds, whether in the same profession or not.
So can anyone link me to “strengths/weaknesses” info for all professions this season, each profession separately? Is this even possible to answer in one post, or is the decision-making process too complex when it comes to comp? Ideally I would like any advice on how to counter-pick professions- kind of like ranked matches in MOBAs, where there is a pre-game draft and you pick and counter-pick professions. I used to do this a lot in s3, would pick ele/engi if we needed bunker, thief if we needed mobility, necro for more condis/condi transfer…
Here’s an example for direction sake: If your team is 4 ranger and 1 ele (you are the ele), what do you do? Hope for the best and roll with it? Switch to something more useful based on enemy comp? How do you know what to switch to? If one of the rangers asks you what to switch to, what do you tell them?
inb4 pick 5 DH, DH OP, DH no counter, etc.
