Counterplay
Open cheat sheetDeath Grip plus Death Strike trading. Anti-Magic Zone deletes your magic window after the pull. Vampiric Blood makes a committed go look successful and then reverse. They do not have a Pillar of Frost or Apocalypse kill; the danger is that you cannot out-trade Bone Shield if you dump into the absorb. Limited Shuffle data — do not invent a one-shot this spec does not have.
Kick
Do not interrupt the Blood death knight. Bait Anti-Magic Shell with a cheap spell, then stun. Save your kick for their healer, and stay out of Mind Freeze while they Death Strike.
Watch for
Death Grip into the Blitz clump plus Anti-Magic Zone on the node is the trap. Death Strike heals off the damage you deal. Vampiric Blood is their wall, not a kill.
Biggest mistake
Dumping a full go into Vampiric Blood or Anti-Magic Zone, or waiting for a Frost-style burst that this spec does not have.
