What also destroys wood? Fire! fight fire with fire, get a privateer or musketeer to help fight a witch! Hmm could this be the reason the Armada has outlawed magic?

Run past their meatsheild companions and put as much pressure on the Witch as possible. If you attempt to fight their minions, you'll be hit with huge damage powers and die before reaching the Witch. But, beware, they may have tanky "hold the line" + "cheap shot" companions set up midfield as big traps. Withes also have a plethoraof AOE attacks so spread you companions apart. Basically, just rush the Witch and take them out ASAP!

You do realize they could just Shadow Step to the other side of the battleboard?I mean,sure most Witchdoctors ignore Shadow Step,but I keep it right at the top.It's much more useful than most people think.Widow's Touch,a couple of Musketeer traps,minions set up and maybe a battle standard can make witchdoctor's hard to reach.Once you do reach them,they could use Mojo Reaver,Mojo Blade etc(I keep those close to the top too) and just shadow step to the other side of the battleboard,slowing you down with Mournsong and Soulreaver.This doesn't mean that the magi are impossible to beat,though...

P.S.Most minions are undead,of the skeletal kind.Why would you call them meatbags,if they have no flesh?

It's hilarious how many Buccaneers and Swashbucklers forget that accuracy does not affect Mojo Reaver, and that a super Mojo Reaver can take away about 2/3 of their health. (Assuming that they're max.) Also, if you Hide in Shadows before an attack, that attack is null and void. Also, we (witchdoctors) can shoot anyone down pretty darn easily, considering that everyone has little to no magical resist and there are no defenses to magic like there are most other things.

hehe this is an interesting topic, I have had musketeers and witchdoctors, but I am mostly a witchdoctor at heart, I have the most of them, it is my favorite school, and in my opinion they are the best. I think swashbucklers are a very strong pvp class but I think in a fair fight witchdoctor would win. Here is a list of reason why:
swashbucklers can: hide and attack, have more companions, can move long distances, could kill most buccaneers
Witchdoctors can: summon undead, mojo bursts that can attack a lot of people, can do shadow door to teleport anywhere, use attacks from the other side of battlefield to kill someone and if we do somehow someway run out of powers, unlikely, we have mojo echo.
We both have low health but the difference is witchdoctors can stay in one place and kill people, swashbucklers have to be in the middle of the battle. We have so so so so many powers, the most of any school. Even though we don't have as many companions we still have good school companions along with main companions. We have big attackers with low health like mormo and kan po. If I were in pvp at max I would use hawkules, el toro and maybe bonne anne so it does not matter w don't have as many companions or as good lol. I just really think we have the advantage in a fight. But I could talk all night and not make a difference. Eventually someone needs to make a school vs school tournament where and school and any level could fight another school. It could be fun, something to do every month or so. It would be hard to make for KI but it would be AWESOME!!! What do you think administration?

Very well let's take this conflict to the spar chamber shall we?
One strategy that works well for me against ranged opponents is to use the sunglasses we get from Sato. I have about 5 pairs of them and I kept one unstitched with it's original transportation power. Once my Swashbuckler 'pops' up next to a Witchy Witch, they are suddenly on the defensive. Use companions that have the Brutal Charge ability. Witchdoctors usually try to hide behind their companions and launch attacks from there. Once you break through their line...you got them.
