8 comps
AWLD (Warrior / Lock / Druid)
Warrior/Lock pressure married to Druid mobility and Cyclone. Constant Mortal Strike + DoT damage while the druid kites and locks the enemy healer out with Cyclone. Strong cleave with real staying power.
AWMP (Warrior / Mage / Priest)
Trade RMP's rogue for a warrior: less CC on the kill target, more raw burst and healing pressure. Shatter + Mortal Strike stacks huge damage while Poly and Mana Burn lock the enemy healer.
BBeastcleave / KFC (Warrior / Hunter / Paladin)
KFC is TBC's iconic melee cleave: an Arms warrior and a Beast Mastery hunter share two overlapping healing debuffs and dump every cooldown on one target while a Holy Paladin keeps them topped. It wins by making a kill target un-healable, then bursting it down inside a stun. The moment it gets kited and controlled instead of getting to press, it falls apart.
BDouble-Healer Warrior (Warrior / Shaman / Paladin)
The purest attrition comp in the bracket: one Arms Warrior grinding a target while a Restoration Shaman and Holy Paladin refuse to let anyone die. You don't out-burst opponents — you out-last them, riding Mortal Strike pressure and two full mana bars until the enemy healer runs dry or panics. Tier B because a single peeled Warrior is a comp with no offense at all.
BRetcleave (Warrior / Ret / Shaman)
Retcleave is TSG's controlling cousin: an Arms Warrior and a Ret Paladin train a target while a Resto Shaman sustains, but the paladin trades a second warrior for Repentance, Hammer of Justice, and Freedom. Less raw instant damage than double-warrior, far more healer lockdown and burst on demand. A high-floor cleave that actually sets up its kills.
BTSG (Warrior / Warrior / Shaman)
'Double warrior.' The TBC stand-in for melee cleave: two warriors train a target with instant Mortal Strike pressure while a Resto Shaman keeps them up. Ignores CC setups, gets kited by casters. High floor, capped ceiling.
BWarrior Cleave (Arms / Fury / Paladin)
Two warriors, one Mortal Strike debuff that never falls off, and the sturdiest healer in the game standing behind them. Warrior Cleave doesn't out-think anyone — it picks a target, glues both swords to it, and dares the enemy healer to keep up through 50% healing reduction and relentless snares. When the swap lands and the cooldowns pop, people simply die between globals.
CTurbocleave (Warrior / Enhance / Druid)
Turbocleave is the purest expression of raw melee tempo in Season 2: an Arms Warrior and an Enhancement Shaman glue themselves to one target while a Resto Druid keeps them topped. It has no setup, no CC chains, and no plan B. You simply hit one thing so hard, so fast, that the enemy healer runs out of mana or globals before your Druid does.
