Congratulations, alliance winrate was terrible before these changes and we were subject to getting farmed in graveyards. We could be lucky and get a premade going to fight these odds (and still losing sometimes).
Now we are loosing everything. Every single game. Hitting the queue button means 100% loose rate.
Forevermore you scared more people away from pvp.
You dont fix potholes in the road by throwing a nuclear bomb on it.
This is exactly why premades were formed and why in 2-3 weeks time Blizzard will announce more changes because the balance/statistics will be hilarious.
The average willing pvp player on alliance side that doesn’t get a spot in r12+ WSG premades is absolutely facked now.
A lot of the horde are screwed too because of this. This crap was not thought-out. They took some idea from some turds on social-media and went with it, without actually thinking about the consequences.
This should be pretty obvious but AV was never meant to be open to premades. If you want to blame someone, blame the leeches that started this exploiting. They put horde in a spot where we had to learn how to fight them or lose every game. Now horde knows how to play and the exploit was fixed. Big surprise.
I just wanted to hope in and thanks Blizzard (I wouldn’t believe myself to like anything new Blizzard change or make an addition) for the queue changes that eliminate the premades’ negative consequences.
I didn’t this much have fun since the start of the Classic, I won 5 games and lost as many but, equal queues, people are fighting for win, less AFK players made AV definitely more fun, thanks again for giving us equal numbered games.
Do you realise that horde has 2 aoe interrupts that alliance doesn’t have? If you don’t understand how OP and game-breaking this is, please see your doctor.
These guys had no chance anyway. How do i know? Because in Vanilla and before premades Alliance lost 90% of AVs.
According to the latest reports on this forum, Horde win rate is 100%.
My premade winrate was still less than 50%. Now my win rate is 0%.
So, no, those people who didn’t premade are no better or worse off now. The ones that did premade, well, they won’t return to AV after their first 5 losses in a row.
I do NOT remember I talk with or towards you, please stay where you belong to, Retail. Do not try to spoil people’s fun for your agenda. Also reported your post for trying to skip forum filter.
So you can not manipulate queues and get in premade, leaving the rest of the community 5 minutes lost game or 5-15 vs 40 games? This definitely sounds like a complete mess like you said:
I do not think while I play you do play. Probably sleeping or at school. I only lost games at evening where raiders were majority and grinding loot for reputation. At day time and late at night I won all my games. You were just unlucky but blaming someone lying for your premade agenda is only making you looks like a fool.
I do not know how to check but if you do check my AV summary for yesterday, I am not a type of person comes here and lie. The last time I lied to my mother maybe 40 years ago. I do not have anything to hide.
Before the AV patch, we played the premade vs the premade, and thanks to this crooked patch, we play the horde premade against the allianse pug. Thank you so much Bllizard. Now it’s enough to look at the statistics of the games to understand this, Bllizard has screwed up . But maybe 99% Blizzard play Horde?
Not really, only Alliance could effectively premade, now both sides have the same group queue and raid shuffle. Sorry you lost your one sided advantage, but don’t pretend Horde premade was a thing before patch.
Not to mention all the other alliance players that would get f#cked over by starting in abandoned BG’s premades simply threw, they really had no respect for their own faction or other players in the game.
You think 5-man groups queuing on their own counts as a premade? Hate to break it to you, but it’s not even full of 5-man groups. Many people still queue solo for AV.
Big difference between a 35-40 man premade, compared to 1-5 man premades.
Horde don’t care where to be in queue, there are horde premade on both av and warsong. After the crooked patch, the premade alliance and all the top players left Alterac so there are too many afk players that slow down the game. As a result, those who do not have the opportunity to find a premage for wsg they have to beat at least some honor on AV against prmades. This is a fix only in plus a horde, half of the alliance players have big problems in pug on AV.
Play against the raids where? On AV or WSG? The choice is obvious, tormented in AV.
Subscription Adjustments Incoming on my account aswell blizzard.
For the first time since the launch im thinking off quitting classic, i really hope all these changes were worth and everyone is happy with them . i guess - 1alliance to decrease horde queues wont matter to much.
