How do you beat..

How do you beat SnB wardens and stamcros in PvP?

It is a serious question, since so many in here say i have l2p issues, then maybe tell me how to kill them?
Because clearly im doing something wrong If everyone else have no issues with them.

Im running
5xStuhns Favor
5xNew moon acolyte
2xEngine Guardian
1xMalacaths Band
1xMaster Bow
(swapped crit surge for rally)

Ive also tried
5xDeadly strike
5xVenomous smite
2x Balorgh
2x Master axes

Im at 22k (27k buffed) Resistances on both setups and 3k crit resist

Both setups are still not strong enough, snb stamcros turn around and wreck me, as do stamdens.

In 1v1 situations, it's all about anticipating the burst while fighting both these classes+ magsorcs. All of them have pretty standard burst patterns and once you block, dodge the main burst component (BB for necro, shalks for dens), its about countering them back with a stun and dropping your burst on them.

and the other way is out sustaining them. works wonders if you know what you're doing. much harder to do thesedays with TTK we have right now.

If you are talking about outnumbered situations in cyro, good luck with avoiding and surviving those things for much longer if you are playing alone.

Yes i get that and im pretty good at it, shalks are easy to see i just BoL through them right before they detonate. In a 1vs1 its usually the Magden that kills me, i have no clue when that freeze stun appears right when shalks and frost ulti pops.

Magcros no problem, magsorcs sometimes i win sometimes i lose i lose more If they have 4 Pets, SnB 40k shields and overload, but i usually use the BoL when i see overload starting using the ball as my shield

Stamcros is not a big problem, we can duel for hours but he cant die and i cant really heal because i dont have a purge since im on stamsorc, and those skeletons are unavoidable..

It also seems like they have infinite sustain 😑
I want to farm telvar but they are camping the flags solo and killing all the zergs that try to get rid of em, so whats a man gotta do? xD

Do you know any other neat tricks to kill these perfectly balanced (requires lots of skill) classes? Its starting to feel embarassing that i still have l2p issues after 5 years of daily 3-8 hours of PvPing since i can only die to them or fight for an hour without anyone dying😬

Fighting these classes always puts a big strain on my resources. First of all if they recognize your burst combo they have great defences while you just waste your resources. Also they can turn to the offensive side very quickly and I have to be more cautious than versus other classes, because their burst is high. One moment of slacking and I see myself spamming dodge and heals to even stay alive.

I guess the best way to approach such fights is just play the LoS game better than they do and make sure you run them out of resources first. Maybe use drain stamina poisons?
