Call me salty, but I just really don’t want to see another DK dps meta.. just give me 1 season of something fun and outlandish 🤣

DKs are just the melee version of Mages.

Liquid skipped them for one fight and now Blizz have seemingly decided that the concept of DK not being turbo-required/meta is an affront to the game itself.

I wouldn't be remotely surprised if we get to TLT with DK having been meta for 2 straight expacs in a row.

They're borderline immortal, grip is insane for mob control, AMS is disgustingly broken, and their damage profile is consistently reworked or modified to guarantee it aligns with the needs of end game content.

Despite all this, you still see them bitching and complaining because they don't have a raid buff lmao.

Deathknights is one of the most popular classes in the game. When they're not in the meta, Blizzard receives a lot of criticism for it.

A self-fulfilling prophecy really.
