Blind is a funny one, on live classic era you would legit resist blind 50% of the time or greater at starting 25mr in pvp. Anyone who spent time in a newbie nektulos or freeport knows this. On rallos lowbies would try to chain blind other lowbies to keep them from bagging their gear, and it basically never worked without the person being tashed into like negative mr. Even when it did land in those situations the duration tended to be pretty short
Basically blind should never land in pvp on geared players, even after a tash/malo(maybe after landing both.
Root/Snare landed significantly easier on live then Blind, but still barely ever stuck. The most common form of CC that actually landed on line by far were Snare/Ensnare/Darkness. I think I went a fulll 12 months on live pvp'ing 5 days a week and never had a root land on me at about 150mr, but once every blue moon a ensnare or darkness would stick.
Basically Blind should never land on anyone but the most debuffed and naked of players.
Root should land sometimes on lesser geared or debuffed players, Stuns/knockback spells mostly fell into this catagory too. Never on well geared ones.
Snare/Darkness should land rarely(but not never) on well geared players, and often on weakly geared/debuffed players. This is probably where the color slant line fell also.
After that is where the Shock of lightening range tended to be, harder to resist then snares, but it was not a lure or something, it just stuck more often then not.

I was running with about 150 MR + MR buff during the second 2v2 PvP tourney on Blue (different resists?) defending my title against 2 SKs. Darkness absolutely wrecked me and my shaman, landing every single time.
