I went to blizzcon and played over 20 games of team deathmatch and can tell you im more excited about d3 pvp then ever. Sure you will be able to pick off team members that arent with there team, thats the style of play. But a well balanced pvp team, that supports their team, and doesnt allow them to be picked off will prevail. I played a witch doctor, wiz, barb, monk comp all day saturday and went undefeated. And two of my team members won autographed posters by the entire blizzard dev team for having top scores in a couple of our victories.
One more thing, i was originally opposed to the idea of deathmatch but it works really well in d3. 4v4 also feels a lot better than 3v3, it feels like your team has much more control. I actually played a 3v3 match at blizzcon because of their systems were down, and it didnt feel right.
In my opinion d3 pvp will be competitive and the team play aspect along with the crazy builds combinations will make for highly addictive pvp. I know im already addicted.
