One of nine playable classes in the game World of Warcraft. Currently, Paladins are specific to the Alliance, and can only be either Dwarves or Humans. In short time, however, Paladins will also be playable by the Horde, as Blood Elves.
Paladins are often thought of as easy-mode players because of the Paladin class ability to wear the heaviest class of armor, wield a large variety of weapons, and have the ability to heal themselves in combat. They are sometimes likened to adolescent/immature players, or mentally handicapped. The underlying irony of those insults is that they are made by other players of the same game, and they are no more intelligent or mature than any other player of said game.
Truth be told, Paladins are no more viable than any other class in World of Warcraft. Every class has the choice to specialize in three different aspects of their abilities, and the Paladins are no exception. They can choose to be exceptional healers, psudo-tanks, or powerful damage dealers. The misconception is that they can perform all three roles simultaneously, which is simply not true.
The Paladin class can be a very entertaining class to play at all stages of its development, be it during the levelling process, PvP, or PvE content. They posess a rich variety of spells and abilities that not only make them exceptionally survivable, but a true blessing to any group.

"Unlike you, I choose to play my Paladin the way it was meant to play, as a versatile support class capable of multiple roles."

"...yes."

A game that is considered a rip-off of the game overwatch. The game is not a ripoff using several unique characters and the two games were released very close together, and the two games took inspiration from each other and did great.
Overwatch released a few months before Paladins, but paladins had their open beta before overwatch released. It also has way more people playing support characters in Paladins so no ragers will come and lecture you.

Guy: "Yo dude I played overwatch last night and no one would play support.
Friend: "Yeah, eventually I got tired of having to deal with that, so I just downloaded a free game called paladins it's got way more people playing support.

An incredible hero who, though he has a code of honor is not celibate.
In fact he is generally ridiculously good at pleasing woman and knows how to take care of them. That's why ladies dig Paladins - they can rescue them from danger and provide incredible sex.

The paladin (aka. Loladin) is a playable caracter in the game World of Warcraft. Usually played by children around the age of twelve, socially retarded young or middle aged men or gay youngsters in extreme denial, the paladin offers these group a salvation through electronical deception. The paladin player is presented with abilities which renders him virtually unbeatable in almost any situation in the game. This in-game power gives the otherwise socially dysfunctional player a false feeling of importance and indivitually that they lack in real life.
