Give us fixed rating score in Battleground Blitz

I am tired of losing 15-17 score, and when I win I only get 5-10 score.

Give us fixed score for win and for lose, I am tired of having anxiety on how much score I will lose if the game is lost.

Thinking about rating is a distraction, think about what you can provide in the game, maybe you need to work on something that you might be doing wrong without knowing it, there are far too many things to be aware of in the map and what your team mates are doing, communication is key, and having the right timing makes a huge difference on domination maps. Check guides on youtube and take the time to understand them, also warm up and practice in the unrated battlegrounds to get some experience in situational events and simply encourage people to work together.

As much as I understand that the rating is the distraction, unfortunately, none of the listed things work in the 0-1600 bracket might be even above. And if does, it is 1 in 5 games.

I play tank (Yes, hated I know, but it is the only spec I play and I feel usefull at least, anti capping, efc and overall raid buffs.). But it seems everyone just do whatever they want, chat is dead, no inc calls nor pings, and when I lose, seeing -15 and above is very frustrating.

Consider playing with a friend, but over time you’ll get there, simply keep trying.

Yeah, made a goal to myself that I will get 2.4 minimum as a guardian Druid in the Solo RBGS.

Just trying to work towards that.

Thank you.

Its known issue, mmr of blitz is so far the worst rating system implemented in WoW. At around 1.5k you’ll face a wall that you literally need to hit with your head. Some people took 20 matches, some 40, but eventually game “lets you” get out of elo hell and play higher games. Its stupid, but there’s no way around it, just keep grinding.

So I just keep queuing and playing then.

Thank you.

Yup im Stuck in the 1600 wall with 2 characters. You win one you lose one and you always get the same Rating as you lose the next. It is absolutely soulcrushing and NOT fun.

It is very frustrating, more the higher you climb. The higher you climb the less rating you win when you win and the morr mmr you lose when you lose, in a game in which you are bound to lose a lot of games bc its out of your control as its a team fight. So you win 4 games and win like 50 points rank. Then you lose 1 and lose 50. So at some poing no matter what you do you’re going to be stuck between 1600-1800 because any loss sends you 5 wins back. Its crazy. I cant see people sticking around with this mmr system.

Very much agreed that at some point wins and loses should give you the same ranking, period. No more bodoo bs depening on what bracket you are and stuff like that. It feels horrible to win 200 per game until you hit a random invisible wall in which the rating system completely changes and gets screwed up.

Makes you not want to queue. What the sweat for? Im on a good rating now if i win i will win 15points if i lose 50, nah im not gonna risk it.

Yeah way to incentivize people to play it blizzard.

I will keep playing it because im not that competitive driven and i just like to have fun and the rating system makes it a bit more balanced than random bgs, but i can see most people not sticking around.

On the same level, I wish they’d actually buff the rating gain to something similar to solo shuffle. I’ve been getting +20 rating at most when I’m 700 less rating than my mmr, would feel good to be able to catch up to my mmr rating wise.

the MMR seems to function in a quite strange way with not much consistancy. A couple of days ago when i just started with blitz i was 13-2 which is a 86.67% winrate n still lost like 15-20 rating n won 9-12 n somehow my MMR seemed abyssmal.

Now im 19-7 which is still a 73.08% winrate but considerably lower than before n my MMR randomly skyrocketed seemingly out of nowhere from about 1400-1500 up to 1800-1900 while my CR is just a slither above 1600.

I dont know if thats related to me having played relatively few games in total. I heard from somewhere that the first 20 games are treated as “placement games” but then again, with a 86.67% winrate during placement games any other game would´ve pushed the MMR considerably where as in blitz i felt like my mmr moved backwards.

I had a nearly 80% Winrate in Blitz with my Healer until i hit the 1600 Wall. Now im Stuck no matter how much i Heal, safe or whatever. Feels especially unrewarding since healing is so dang stressful.

I had 100% winrate for like 12 games in a row, until I got to 1600, then all hell let lose and my games were filled with people, if they even are people, who play like they never played a video game before, its absolutely insane to me that it is pretty much impossible to climb right now because of this, I dont understand why the game decides to put these creatures in my games. I cant even duo anymore because all my friends quit this game mode already.

I got to 1600 fell in a losing streak, and now I’m 1540, every loss is -15+ and every win is +7 :slight_smile: Don’t really see how we’re suppose to climb with a system like this

Yep im DEFINETELY not healing anymore until they fix this pile of Horsedung. Gotta contribute to queues slowing down if they try to abuse Healers yet again. We all know what that did for soloshuffle.

I have crafted an item, enchanted everything possible, and upgraded all of my items, just jumping between 1500 and 1600. One win one lose, and then streaks.

Some people (Guardian druids) already got 1.8+ and I wonder how they did do that, is it pure luck, or is it skill? Though I hardly doubt skill alone can do wonders in 8vs8 battles.

I just got a ‘‘rating unchanged’’ after winning when we were 1528 average rating and the other team 1468 :')

I lost more than 10 games in a row. I get into the lobby with a rating of ~ 1500 every game with my 1800 and lost more than 150 . Ty blizzard

I’ve played almost 120 games and I’m still stuck at 1700-1750 because the mmr works poorly and many times it puts me with people with less mmr than me. So I have to deal with the rng of the groups, but the mmr not to put me with people who are usually worse than the arathi bots. I know that as soon as I get close to 2k, I can reach 2.4 but I still need another 200 games to reach my luck.

More than 200 here :dracthyr_hehe_animated:

But guess what?
