WSG, for example. Today I joined several queues only to find that the opposing team had, let's say, 3 or more healers. What happens when 3 healers go for the flag on their own?
Words aren't necessary.
Perhaps, methinks, healing in battlegrounds needs some kind of diminishing return-esque deal. I mean, sure, healers should be able to last a long time, but after (literally) five minutes of straight beating the !@#$ out of one healer only to find that two other healers are there to heal him back up, it really makes you question the already #$%^ed balance that constitutes WoW PvP.

In a PuG BG where the other team has 3+ healers (good, mind you) you may as well just not bother unless you have an equal amount of (good) healers. Relying on PuG's to CC the other healers isn't going to happen, and unless your entire team bum rushes one of the healers (the FC) you probably aren't going to get a kill.

I have never seen more then 2 healers go for a flag in a bg. And it ended very badly for them as they were both preist. And became Rogue food.
The idea behind it would work very well as reguardless of who has the flag you would be healed threw the damage until the other team CC's one of you and brust the others.

To be honest it all comes down to timing cooldowns and cc's with tactics. A lot of people kill the healers only for them to come back with full mana. Sometimes it's smart to not kill them and rather just keep them in combat so they don't drink while grinding down the FC. Eventually they will die, especially if they get the FC debuff on them.

listen man unless ur really great cc or amazing dps with lots of interupts ull prob lose against three healers its "possible" but no less unlikely u need to be able to coordinate ur ionteruptsd and dps very well im a blood dk and i pull bout 9k dps so i ahv 2 interupt and necreotic stirke so i keep up necrotic striek on the fc well dpsing him and keeping the other two silenced (i hav been in this situation b4 and won it is possible but once again EXTREMELY unlikely unles sur amazing at ur class)

^this is important.
Take Warsong: my little priest gets killed all the time running with a FC. Respawn, jump on mount and back ready to go more often than not. Especially if I wasn't the only flag support.
In low brackets this is where you note the smart rogues, sapping people and leaving them out of play.
