The best rogue in the world has zero chance of coming even remotely close to beating a 1500 ret paladin, even if they were to cloak a hoj and make use of feint for divine storm reduction etc etc. The hand of freedom talent and huge amount absorbed by sacred shield makes it literally impossible unless the pala has so little resilience you can explode him before he does you. I would almost venture to say that this is the most lopsided 1v1 scenario possible, and as a 6.3kgs rogue that got 2100 rating/kingslayer in 7 days /played at 5.6k gs, I ignore fighting any pvp geared paladin entirely. They also struggle hard vs competent dks with high resilience due to the overloaded toolkit dks have access to, and lets not even bother bringing skillmourne or orc racials into the equation. As most people have concluded, DK and pala are the strongest in 3.3.5 in 1v1 scenarios, and I'd also say that a well played shadow priest in the right environment is also capable of doing extremely well. In a perfect world where shadowmourne didn't exist, this subject would likely be harder to agree upon for people since it gives such a gamebreaking benefit to the aforementioned classes on top of their powerful and versatile tools.
