Gladiator Players Everywhere

Good day folks!
I have been playing 3vs3 with my friends for a long time now. We aren’t the best but in the previous expansions we were able to climb up to 1800 or 1900 and playing there now we are stuck around 1300 or 1400 and constantly facing players with glad titles and mounts.
I have been asking around latetly and it seems it’s not just us that stuck around this low with high glad players. I was just curious about your opinions and experiences. What are these ppl doing at low rating and are there someone who might be in the same shoes like us?

Regards,
Magrot

Deflated season + the gladiators are probably fotmrerollers that got glad in SL S3 and now reality hits them.

Also I think most casuals play solo shuffle.

Have noticed this too - the quality of players around the 1500 range does vary a lot, but quite often I’ll be facing people on glad mounts who outplay me to the extreme.

The trick I’ve found is to find a chill arena partner who also wants to learn, who you get on with and it becomes much less of a chore to go through these matchups

S3 was the über inflated season, no? I might be wrong.

R1 in S2
Alliance: 3583
Horde: 3594

R1 in S3
Alliance: 3063
Horde: 3037

Although I think the problem is deeper than that. People can be like “omg you got it in a super inflated season” all they want. They don’t know WHY people currently are at that rating so to call them bad just causes a toxic community.

sl glad = 1300 DF confirmed :sunglasses:

Yeah I was mistaken then, S3 was the super inflated one.

Haha you mean S2?

Always kinda crazy how people mock SL glads but at the same time 90% in here never made it even past 2.1 consistently. :thinking:

I can’t even write today…

I mean that’s true but there are still two problems. You have people who are 1400 calling multi glads sh** while people who got gladiator one season as the most meta broken comp have god complex syndrome.

We should all be open to discussion no matter what the rating / exp someone has. It is better to learn and improve together rather than to have a toxic mentality towards each other.

Discussion is hardly what you can call up to 70% of the forum posts in this forum.

shadowlands season 2 gladiator was basically duelist and since you can use glad mounts acc wide you constantly see alts from duelist players with glad mounts at your rating.

do u mean like when u go whisper people after some rbg if they played correct and controlled u on ur every shadow blades

and u make attempt to flame them on their alt out of ur frustration that u were controlled in a yolo rbg… :sob:

whispering them something extremely salty and stupid in attempt to flame their alt rating and the like

seems like ur forum personality doesnt match ur ingame personality

The problems i would say is that the rewards we would get now is out of reach for the players who were playing at 1800 or 1900. Like i honestly feel like there is no way i’m able to get 2000 or above. What do u guys think?
Those who would start to play pvp and they had never done it before now will be facing against these. The only way i can think of for them is they will just quit. Like what’s the point matching a game with 1000 cr beginner and 2400 cr gladiator player?

Alting is super easy too so thats probably part of it

I’m sure of it. But i don’t think it’s fair against the less experienced players.

Haha indeed but I think that is something we should strive towards (100% discussion).

Umm I am sorry but what are you talking about?
a) I don’t think I have ever faced you in an rbg? The only time I have seen you is in LFG.
b) In rbgs I am barely in teamfights and if I am I expect to be CCd into oblivion if we face a good team. I rather encourage CC heavy teamfights because that makes the game more interesting imo.
c) I think you must have mistaken me for someone else because the only time I whisper people are if they are toxic themselves.

I don’t know why you would be lying like this but please show me some screenshots or whatever of me doing this (even proof that we played in the same bg???).

hope u get suspended soon of this habbit of urs to ragewhisper people something extremely stupid everytime u got hurt in a video game

i know that its annoying sit cc but people who use addons see what u are doing and they will stop u if they can everytime u use a cd, its been part of game since 2006

its just ridiculous to whisper something salty to people

ur whispering my alt rogue after a friggin yolo rbg calling it “hardstuck” alt that i barely played 50 games with during whole sl s4

all because u were mad that u got controlled during the kotmogu everytime u trying to kill the orb carrier

then u come whisper my alt after the match that according u im hardstuck and the like :man_facepalming:

i have long memory, my memory tracks back to 2006 when im harrassed by rivaling premade team asking me to stop playing or wintrade with them

i still remember each of their names and the attempt when they tried orchestrate ban for me cause i refused their proposal to wintrade
