Hello!
I am writing to request that Blizzard consider reducing the minimum number of players required to start low-level battlegrounds. Currently, it appears that Warsong Gulch requires 8 vs. 8 players to begin.
This number is too high given the current activity on classic era servers. Recently, there have been no games at all. Every time someone joins the queue, the game simply doesn’t happen, leaving people upset.
We are part of the EU twinks community, a small group of players who love this content. Some of us, like myself, do not play any other content and do not want to play elsewhere. We organize games on Discord from time to time, including with levelers, but even then, it’s very tough to start a game. Sometimes we have 5 vs. 5 or 7 vs. 7 players in the queue and still can’t start the game.
The 19s, 39s, and 49s brackets are absolutely dead, and only the 29s bracket is alive thanks to the efforts of our twinks community. It’s really nice games!
I believe it’s not a big deal to reduce this limitation to 5 vs. 5 or 4 vs. 4. It won’t have a negative impact.
Please, if you still love low-level battlegrounds and want to be a part of this activity, support my post and leave a comment. Maybe such activity will increase our chances of being noticed. I hope we can change this sad situation and have fun with new games.
Whether Blizzard helps us or not, here are our two Discord channels where you can find information about future events, get help, or find advice:
