Yeah, with a genuine reason, they have made the game an absolute mess, all because they are scared to play in a fair situation. Premades with testes so small that they are frightened to play in rated cos they know in there, they are going to get an absolute roasting by proper teams.
I’m genuinely embarrased for you and anyone that actually admits to playing like that, scared in a video game, haha it really is pathetic.
Just que blitz and stay away from bgs if you got such big problems with battlegrounds.
The Premades already have 20. That’s more than enough for Rated Battlegrounds.
Instead, they exploit and abuse the join a friend system in Random Battlegrounds.
Rule Breaking or not, they should still be shamed for sabotaging the game for everyone else by bending the rules.
You.
Also you.
When u get to high mmr in blitz que never comes, so it’s not an option.
Dont tell people to piss off then when theyre trying to explain to you that 5 man premading is legit and not rule breaking.
We dont exploit or abuse anything.
Exactly your party is not a trouble, w\r below 75% is definitely low, i have the same on some bgs playing alone. But if we are talking about russian premades with 90% w\r they are the real desaster for casual players
If you mean queue sync premades, sure.
But 5 man premades are literally using the join a friend system exactly as intended.
This is exactly what this whole thread is about. The Queue Sync Premades.
I wasn’t specifically calling you out. I’m talking about the 10-40 men premade groups people. So unless you want it to be about you to feel like the victim, be my guest. Cause no one seems to care.
Ok, some people here dislike all types of premades in casual bgs including small groups up to 5. It’s important to clarify what kind of premades you mean to avoid misunderstandings. Meghan is not a queue sync player. There is really no reason for you two to argue.
In my mind, its not about handing out “big punishments” but small punishments for bending the rules.
If it truly is against ToS then it should be harder depending on how long they have done it with leaders getting the hardest punishment.
So its more about making a statement and putting a “ban” on their record so any further violations will increase it if they find other “loopholes”.
Making other solutions like I said should be implemented aswell to make it either impossible or atleast alot harder to do sync premades.
The people who are actively doing sync premades are literally the trash of the BG community.
To me it’s just weird they aren’t getting punished. I know in the rules it says gy camping is not harrassment and I agree. you can just not rezz or not queue and it’s only every once in a while it happened so never really had an issue. Never had a problem with 5 man party in normals. Premades been around since as long as I can remember (think they changed bg’s in wrath to become shared) yet in all those years never felt I had to come to the forums as it wasn’t disrupting my game. it was just something that you would encounter every once in a while. However, the epic bg situation currently is on a whole different lvl as those premades are running literally the entire day every day for weeks now. wich leaves the entire game mode unplayable. Now I just been in another thread where Blizz goes out of their way to protect players from stuff like fart emotes lol.
Fart emotes get changed. paintings get changed. but a handfull of people ruining the game for hundreds of players every day just to cheese honor lvls (or I still don’t even understand why someone would put 20hours a day in cheating epic bg’s) But that can’t be sorted? In my entire wow playtime I have loved bg’s. I have lvld all my mains in bg’s basically lol. and for all those years I had pretty much insta queu all the time. and still today is 4-5 mins max. People absolutely love bg’s. Why Blizz allows a handfull of people to ruin and abuse an entire bracket is beyond me tbh.
We can only hope for changes in the next expansion. In my opinion they should add an “unranked mmr” in the solo/random battlegrounds whether you’re playing alone or in a 5 man party premade, the more games you win, the higher chances you’re playing with better and against better player. This mock up system is designed that you don’t end up facing vs the same players a gazillion of time, and will offer a more dynamic pvp experience for both casuals and experienced players.
Rated Battleground obviously will remain and retain it’s rating system unlike the idea above for obvious reasons, but I believe it will offer some form of relief. You’ll still face “notorious” premaders as many people here point out but atleast you won’t be fighting them 24/7.
Whether queues become longer, I still think it’ll offer quality gameplay, personally I’d happily wait 10-15 mins for a decent match.
Of course when you dont have a job and got plenty of time you are able to wait for 15 min. But others that live a normal life and dont have time to wait so long? How will it affect them, you think?..
Not at all.
I have job,kid, family and I have zero problems with waiting 15mins for a game if it means I dont have to run into cheaters anymore that run the same bg’s 24/7.
You’re not fooling anyone btw;)
Why pretend that if you have a job that you don’t have time to play or wait for a queue a few mins?
Also define normal life? seems boring.
How do you know I don’t have a job? 
Well since random epic bgs aren’t random anymore they should give us a way to put a certain player on the blacklist so we don’t get matched with said person anymore including his party members, this alone would solve the whole problem aswell, he would be stuck queueing forever, because theres nobody that wants to play against him, its a win-win for everyone said person can then finally enjoy the sunlight again instead of pubstomping with his friends
Being a legit way doesn’t change that (for the chronic premade spammers) it’s a very cringeworthy and toxic playstyle that has clear consequences on the overall health of the game, evident through the number of complaints, threads, extended queue times and low participation in PvP on the whole. I solo queued into a P* ndor* premade a few times in a row where teams instantly left or just went afk in the GY and not ressing. Someone asked: ‘what’s going on, why is everyone leaving?’ to which someone replied ‘half our team are Gladiators’. I was the only Gladiator in the BG, everyone else was very low in the rated environment.
‘It takes a long time to form RBG groups…it’s fun to play with friends’ etc is not a valid rebuttal from them, either. I’ve been invited into those communities, there are HUNDREDS of members, there are always dozens of people online. Either go to rated or just admit that premade unrated bg players get a kick out of stomping disadvantaged players.
‘I don’t look down on anyone until they say something I don’t like, and THEN I say how I truly feel about them’.
Well…they will face hard matches every day if they were to play RBG. Why risk getting owned in that bracket when you can own in a random bracket?
Yeah thats what rated is for no? for it being a challenge and you know where random bgs are for? exactly to just play casually without exploiting ofc, and if u get owned in rated then it might not be for you, so exploiting the queue system as a fulltime job is definitely something that needs to be fixed asap since its getting tiresome.
It doesn’t matter if they defend that sync premading isn’t against the rules or it is.
It is classified as Sabatoging the game and that should be more than enough to be punished for it.
You’re basically abusing the play with friend system by trying to sync with more than the intended number to get a fully party of premades, which destroys the actual purpose of a Random Battleground.
2 friends, sure.
5 friends, ok, whatever.
An entire RBG or EBG, hell no thats sabatoge.
Doesn’t help that 80% of the time, the premades drag the match on and on to farm that honor like vultures, draging the match forever till the other team leave.
