Annoying PvP Strategy

There's this PvP Strategy in which every person on a team just spams a lot of cards like:

- JuJu

- Infections

- Tons of shields

- Plaque

- And a ton of dispels

I don't know how we're gonna fix this but we need to, its really annoying nobody wins the match. And none of the teams win unless the other one flees. It may not look like a problem but it is.

(Sorry, Picture link removed as they aren't allowed per the rules ~Dworgyn)

As you can see here the team with the shields have ton nothing but spammed dispels and plaques. And they have NO hits so how is anyone supposed to win?

Neither of the teams have a fighting chance, its almost impossible because they all have so many of each card there's no way we'd be able to get anything off.

I know Kingsisle is smart so they'll find a way to fix it but the only thing I could think of was a PvP Timer for unranked matches. That way it could AT LEAST draw the match. But this strategy is just annoying and overall unfair for both teams because nobody can win.

This isn't a bug, why is this in the Lab and not the PvP section?

I don't understand why PVP people have to always whine about things when someone has a better strategy than them. It's ridiculous. This also should be in the PVP section, not Bugs because while not fun for the losing team. It is a perfectly legitimate way to PVP. There is such a thing as Shatter that you can use before you hit. If they truly don't have a hit then, just wait them out. If you can't wait, that's too bad. Ugh!

It's your problem that you can't handle that.
Every spell in Wizard101, have a counter spell!

1) Plague(s)*

2) I'm not much of a duelist when it comes to PvP, but if you don't like this team strategy so much, do 1v1.

I don't understand why PvE players with little understanding of the issues at hand feel the need to interject in threads where they have no idea what they are talking about. How is shatter going to help against plague and dispel spam exactly? How is stalling out a match to the point of stalemate where nobody wins a "legitimate way to pvp"?

I agree. Spammers like these are what has kept me from getting my Commander robe. to fix pvp we either need the spells to increase by one pip, or make tournament classifications into ranked pvp, like being able to do Quick match or a Classic match in ranked PvP would give more variety thus making everything fair for those who pick their own pvp style.
