Yeah, I never said I was some expert on spvp ( I really don't care). I even mentioned that but it's irrelevant. My only point was that GW2 is boring to play and therefor would be boring to watch. If there is some audience out there that actually wants to watch that mess that would surprise me.
The things I mention are relevant to pvp and pve so it really doesn't matter. I'm more interested in pve myself and I don't watch esports (I mentioned this as well) so it really doesn't matter. I just feel that the system of no trinity and little/no itemization they put in place to make pvp "fair" and "equal" also made the game homogeneous and boring.
I didn't mean to call you an elitist but your comment came off that way to me.
No PvP is based on Holy Trinity.

So a game that has the Holy Trinity and PvP is not PvP based on the Holy Trinity? WoW, ESO, TOR are three obvious examples. You can argue that Holy Trinity based PvP isn't good or isn't fun or some other argument but it's a bit silly to say it doesn't exist.

Opposed to AI mobs, players can choose who they will attack.

Players *can* do anything they want but if there are tanks and healers they better take that into consideration when they attack or they will die. Ever tried to kill a DPS when he has constant heals? Yeah, that doesn't work so well usually. Lots of the PvP strategies in games like WoW centered around healers and tanks (and counter strategies to deal with them) so again..silly to say it doesn't exist.

I'm sure they will attack the healer. Just not the tank. AI mobs on the other hand attack the tank. Since the purpose of the tank is to be attacked and players will focus healers and dps classes first, the point of the tank in pvp is moot. Once the healer and the dps classes are down you can take your time killing the tank.
