Frost Death Knight PvP Guide in Battle for Azeroth (BfA 8.3)

Frost Death Knights are a force to be reckoned with in arena. They have the ability to singlehandedly force defensive cooldowns from enemies and have some of the strongest sustained damage outside of burst cooldowns. Even when a Frost Death Knight does not have offensive cooldowns active they can still force defensives with the large amounts of damage they can do.

• Strong burst damage
• Powerful cleave damage
• Great survivability

• Limited crowd control
• Predictable burst damage
• Little to no mobility
