Best Matchups

Worst Matchups

Common Mistakes

The most frequent mistakes  Mistweaver Monk players make in ranked Solo Shuffle matches from the last 30 days, based on automated combat-log analysis.

Used Song of Chi-Ji but did not hit anyone. CC, especially stuns with fixed cooldowns, is how your team generates momentum. If you waste one, you're locked out of a chance to build momentum for 30 seconds to over a minute depending on the ability. Without CC you can't set up kills. Momentum shifts in arena come from CC chains and coordination. Every time you let a stun or trap get wasted, you put your team behind and take away your own ability to create pressure until it comes back up.

Let teammate die with Restoral available. If your teammate dies and you had an ability that could have kept them alive, you're equally responsible for that death. You can't just blame your teammate for dying when you were sitting on a cooldown that would have saved them. This is one of the ways you carry in arena. Using your tools to keep your team alive is just as important as doing damage. It's not as bad as dying with your own defensives up, but it's up there. You could have kept the game going and you didn't. Take equal responsibility.

Did not dispel Hammer of Justice on teammate. If the enemy team can land CC on your teammates and your healer just doesn't dispel, they're stopping pressure for free. Imagine you get feared by a Warlock. Your healer doesn't dispel you. You get feared far away, then you get bashed out of it into a DR Cyclone. Now you're stuck out of position, your healer is nowhere near you, and the enemy team is pressuring your team while you can't do anything. One undispelled CC can snowball into a disaster. At a basic level, this is stuff like a Mage casting Polymorph on you and your healer just sitting there watching it happen. At a higher level, it gets more nuanced. Think about an RMP setting up a go where the Mage Dragon's Breaths both DPS to set up cross-CC on the healer. A really good healer sees the setup coming and dispels the Dragon's Breath instantly, freeing a DPS to peel and shut down the whole go. A slow healer lets it ride and the setup lands clean. This isn't just a low rated mistake. Fast, aware dispelling is one of the things that separates good healers from great ones.
