Magblade Single Target Burst PvP

I have been in pvp a couple of months with my magblade. Below level 50, no cp and cp campaigns. Used basically a balanced build between damage and survivability.

The past couple of days been fooling around with bomber style. Spinners + Vicious Death. I am finding it too situational waiting for the perfect scenario.

So was thinking of more a single target burst damage. Similar to a bow sniper build, but magic instead.

Was thinking of Stygian + Elegance. Attack burst from stealth. Anyone tried that combo? Any suggestions for a better combo?

I am not interested in long drawn out fights. If it gets to that, I'm dead.

Thoughts?

    Spinners + war maiden + slime craw

    then you hit soul assault.

    The tells are spectacular.

    Hate tells are always fun.

    So if you're getting the 2 piece bonus with slime you are using DW ?

    Why would you use slime craw, if you have acess to Minor Berserk via Merciless Resolve?

    Magblade ganking got hit hard with the nerfs to stygian, heavy attacks, sharpened and shadow mundus. Not sure if it still works.

    Ganking with SA will kill bad players. But good players will be able to survive it even in medium armor, if you don't apply additional pressure and you are vulnerable during the channel, if there are multiple enemies arround (with the right setup, SA is ridiculously strong against everything not running snb though).

    You would be better off with Skoria since SA can proc it. Merciless Resolve is your source of Minor Beserk.
