2016 PvP devs: “Earn your rewards.”
2025 PvP devs: “We noticed you’re breathing. Here’s an elite set with a mount.”
I cannot wait till 2030 when I’m explaining to a Wrath player that I got my Gladiator by capping conquest in random BG Blitz.

Nothing can fix pvp until the absurdly stupid healer mmr/cr system remains. Healers dont want to play it, which causes dps not wanting to play it. No mounts, pets, transmogs, housing or whatever bs they throw at us will fix pvp, until this core functionality of the game gets fixed first.

It is bad system and should be reworked.
nah, glad is a clown show just like its always been. add gladiator mounts to rank 1 in 3s cutoff only period, it was already way too soft at 2700+
Ppl with most irl gold buying it to show off skill
If will probably end up getting removed like pet battles. People don’t generally bother due to losing points when they don’t win.
Or instead of spreading out 1 old reward, they could make new ones for lower, mid and high rating.
But yes, mount cosmetics can be a good idea
They should generally increase the amount of rewards and not just make one of them “easier” to obtain. Easier is quoation marks because 100 less rating required will change literally nothing.

I said multiple times. Blizzard should add some participation and activity based rewards. Something like season pass but not paid ofc. Class based challenges like “deal x amount of damage while your enemies are stunned”, “purge x amount of buffs”, “kick x amount of casts”, “CC your enemies for combined x amount of times”, “deal x amount of damage during Havoc”, “reduce combined x amount of damage with your def CD”, “dispel x amount of debuffs (for healers)”. As a reward add a recolour of Elite PvP set (it’s reasonably easy to get and maybe in other color variant will work better for transmog) and trust me. People will participate. Also such challenges would make people use their spells besides damage rotations so many players will improve. You kill two birds with 1 stone. You improve participation and encourage players to improve.
As rating based reward I’d add some seasonal based glyphs. Like now we have void themed season then add glyphs that turn certain spells into their void version like purple flames (Lava Burst, Pyroblast), Charge leaving void trails etc. Make PvP players able to learn these glyphs so then they can sell them to PvE players who will cry they cannot get it + PvP players will gain unique way to earn gold.
