In my honest opinion, rooting would just tickle any average warrior. I'm pretty sure at least 75% of endgame warriors use Skyward Smash, and Axe Throw is arguably one of the best skills to use against a mage in a 1v1. If rooting is similar to Crawly's arcane ability, it won't have much effect since both Skyward Smash and Axe Throw have decent range, enough to pull the mage in the compressed spawn room of CTF.

If im rooted all I can do to attack is axe or pet. On the other hand I can try to heal. Warrior attacks, windmill and cs woupd be useless.

Jug would overcome this of course. Rogues with razorshield with the freedom upgrade too. Mages will have slightly more opportunities to fight at a range and / or buy time to act defensively if necessary.
