Death Knight PVP - First Look
Jayde says it best, I seem to get the “Dear in the headlights” look 90% of the time I run into an alliance. Which is how I imagine a lot of players are going to react when they run into a Death Knight in live. Here is a video of some pretty straightforward steamrolling.
There isn’t much in the way of PVP right now in the Beta as players are still doing a lot of bug testing and leveling making sure all the environments and quests and NPCs and skills are working properly. When Blizzard releases the new Battleground and the two new Arenas for testing I’m sure that the PVP crowd (my crowd) will get some relief.

Ganking is one thing. I was hoping to see pvp of two people prepared and not already attacking mobs.

Yeah I feel you that it’s more of a ganking situation (though personally I feel that ganking is defined as somebody much higher level going after a low level con-grey player) I’d say this is more just PVP happening on a PVP server.
What sells this to me as a PVP video is not so much in the act of a battle between players but more like how the Death Knight’s abilities stack up against enemy players. Looking at the shaman and warlock killed in the video you’ll see that their gear really isn’t that bad at all. T6 black temple and beyond. But like Jayde said, right now nobody is used to seeing or fighting Death Knights so the initial reaction is “omg wtf do I do?”
