Wow, so ... healers.

You're not supposed to be able to kill a healer 1v1. If it were easy to get one down by yourself, then there wouldn't be much point to healing.
I frequently seem to run into healers in BGs that apparently didn't get the memo you did.
Did Gwennevere really need to include the qualifier "with equal skill and gear"?

Gameplay remains balanced. Say we have 3 classes. 1 is random healer, 1 is Warrior that is a "heal killer", and 1 is frost mage that is not heal killer. You still wind up in a situation where it is better to bring all 3 types in a balanced comp rather than just 2 or 1 type.
That already happens. Funnily enough, that doesn't validate your point -
it destroys it
! 3x DPS teams are viable. 3x Healer teams are not. Dispel Cleave isn't as strong as it once was, nowhere near it.

Again, the assumption is always that eventually the healer must lose. Virtually every poster complains he can't kill the healer "fast enough." Is that balance? Not one word about how a healer should be able to win somehow. Why? Because there is no way. Why? Because the system is unbalanced against healers.
Aww, you poor DPS, u can't make the healer spend enough mana - you poor thing. Meanwhile, hunter's hitting for 53k on a single Chimera Shot. Warriors are even worse. Give me a break. Stop whining and talk about how Blizz can balance it so healers win 50%.
My Aff-lock has almost no trouble against healers. I feel sorry for them. Their healing is way, way down from Wrath and mana is too. Every physical DPS and his brother can burst out 100k in 6-8 seconds. With insta-cast stuns, Warrior fears, disorients, etc., healers really have no chance.
When will it be balanced? When we see posts complaining that DPS are getting beat by healers. That'll be the day.
Wow. Do you have any idea how pvp is supposed to work? Healing is a supportive role. DPS are supported by healers. If healers only need to support themselves in order to win, DPS become obsolete.
I fyour Aff-lock doesn't have trouble with healers you oviously haven't played a shaman above 1800. The problem is currently that heals CAN beat DPS, or at least last forever. If you think every physical DPS can burst 100k in 6 to 8 seconds your sense of time is extremely skewed or you have no resilience. Same with hunters. I chimera shot is not able to crit for 53k unless the hunter is extremely geared, probably even BiS pvp gear wouldn't do it which would mean the hunter is pve geared, or you have no resilience. Hunters do indeed do crazy damage, however that doesn't mean the numbers you so eloquently and anecdotally provided are accurate.
Healers have no chance? Good one. My mostly vicious geared frost mage takes at least 20 to 30 seconds to do 100k damage while kiting a melee around, maybe slightly less for a caster. To summarize, you either play with no resil or you have a warped perception of the game.
