Yesterday Blizzard released their 3.0.2 version on to the live realms. This is basically Wrath of the Lich King without Northrend and level 80.

If you have played a few games of battlegrounds or arena you know the story already; Retribution paladins. So far the best setups in 2v2 and 3v3 is retri/retri and retri/retri/retri. The community is screaming and Blizzard can not do much but just lock every new thread that pops up on their forums. Funny enough they did hotfix Paladins during the night, but the damage is still over the roof.

Update
There is now a blue post about this:

"Q: Are we going to nerf Ret?
A: TO THE GROUND BABY. Okay, not really, but sometimes I can't resist. We'll see how much that quote comes back to haunt me. We will probably be making some changes soon, perhaps even hotfixes. We want to be very surgical about what we do. We don't want to overdo it, and we don't want to hurt their sustained PvE damage. When we've decided, I'll make sure you all know."

The big question is if Blizzard will hotfix this before ESL Montreal starts tomorrow.
