You're monk is probably gonna die 3 times to a coordinated team before your warriors even build up adrenaline. This would entirely fall apart against good team, with warrior hate probably shutting down 2 warriors with no way to prevent or remove it efficiently. Then the other warrior will just get kited/healed through, while the other team just falls on the monk and beats the res sigs out of the warriors.

I can imagine this as a good glad farming build (3 shovesins is better though IMO), but not as something that you would play seriously.

3 warriors in TA is bad. . . any type of warrior/ranger/assassin hate and you go down in flames. Not to mention people will just kite you all to death.

Except for the phase where everyone was running NR/Tranq :P originality is something most people have a hard time grasping.

In a 4 man team, I believe that 2 warriors is the max.

1 Warrior, 1 Ranger, 1 monk, and a caster of your choosing is considered balanced. So, usually the caster bites the dust for the 2nd warrior. If that were 3 warriors, the monk needs a bodygaurd, and that stops your build immediately,I think.

Wrong, you can run 3 or even 4 warriors in Team Arenas. Just make sure you're running IWAY, and running it as a joke(even though you can still get 30+ streaks against total scrubs).

3 Wars can do pretty good in TA. However, you need to have quite organised build to beat up stronger teams. Combining high pressure with nice skills like hex breaker, plague touch and shove/shock, wild blow... can help your team counter things like blinders, antiwarr mesmers and so...
Also, a monk must be specially redesigned for that kinda team.

Or, you just run 3 total joke IWAY wars with a trapper/spirit spam oath shot ranger. And then you make it so that even the IWAY wars are the most effed up IWAY wars on earth (Backbreaker, charge hammer, charge sword, some other random junk).

Then you get on at like 9am EST and pwn scrubs for a 30 win streak.
