How the classes stack up in PvP

I thought this link was interesting--it's supposedly statistics on how PvP encounters among different classes end. But I am shocked that paladins lose to every class other than warriors.

Why is it shocking? You do know that we have THE lowest dps in the game, even prior to the Crusader fix. Smart Rogues will do hit and runs until yer shields are both gone, then come back and finish you. Mages annihilate you once your only shield is gone, Priest will flat out manadrain you, etc.

Because you have 9-lives

that can't be accurate. It's just people uploading, so if a priest happened to be holy spec'd he'd lose a lot more than a shadow priest would.

it may be inaccurate, but from a paladins point of view..as the game progresses our chances of winning fights seem to slim down each month

ever since people learned how to bandage and exploit combat with stealth etc, it has been downhill for us pallys =)

Think about how many pvp kills are actually 1v1 at equal level and how many are three lvl 55+ ganking some poor lvl 34 in STV. The numbers are probably accurate "technically" but I don't think they actually represent real PVP encounters.

also, gg warlocks, rooflesmayo.

Good point.
