When they try to play 1 time with an off meta spec
They start to become clueless how simple pvp mecanics work and start doing stupid thing
Please stop playing with 100% the meta spec that roll face to win, because when you start to play with someone else that require set up or anything we clearly see that you didn’t played on mecanics of pvp itself but on a rollface 1shot.
And since you have played with only rollface 1shot you haven’t learn how to play with set up comp to win.
Set yourself out of your comfort zone and explore and learn something to be better, stop queue with Arm / WW / BM and queue with for example warlock , rogue , balance or anything else that need cooperation so you can improve yourself
The problem is even if you don’t play meta you basically loose cause you have to play way better than your opponents and even most of the time playing good you naturally loose to some stuff.
So imagine if you aren’t an insane tryhard an dolay for fun and or few hours here and there.
Don’t blame the players. Blame developers, who refuse to implement frequent balance changes to wow pvp and pve for some reason. Btw they introduced frequent weekly balance changes in COD Warzone half a year ago and after two or three months they succeed to create almost perfect balance between the guns. Same approach could be implemented in wow if they only wished to do so.
I’d say it’s 50/50 community and devs. First of all the game is spoiled before it’s released so people have tier lists before the expansion hits. Everyone releases these tier lists and players follow.
2nd thing is designers do awful job in balancing everything. They are rather going for crazy ideas that in their mind are “fun” rather than fair. Look at specs like Outlaw, Fury. They need some crazy new utility to work as otherwise their counterparts would always outshine them.
Well, I suppose it’s good that people that deliberately play bad stuff want to justify it by telling themselves they’re better players. That’s one way to cope.
And when people DO play non-meta specs and cops, its most of the time meme-comps that people then make arena posts about how “2xBOOMKIN + PROTPALA CANCER COMP” or “LOL DOUBLE DEMO IN 2S IS OP, STOP QUEING CANCER SPECS”.
This is a discussion you cant enter nor leave with dignity.
I think tier lists are a huge problem, you could have some streamer come out tomorrow and say uhdk is meta and okay it at 2900 and you’d see them everywhere, it’s crazy.
Devs balancing is a really tough one and I do understand it’s hard to balance correctly with the amount in the game but borrowed powers adds more to the problem. I honestly think that for pvp any borrowed powers shouldn’t be active…
I’m not saying just switch them off this season because some will say oh my class is nothing without them… it needs rebalancing after gutting.
Just as an example… But you could have spinning crane kick. Essentially useless in pvp under normal circumstances like now. Give it all the modifiers for pve and it can be as strong as it is now. You’ve ended up with an ability that functions in pvp and pve as you want.
I think blizzard don’t realise that streams of pve are boring as hell. Basically pvp streams and videos are the advertising for your game and right now it looks a joke… you improve the game. You improve the advertising and your back to gaining players instead of losing!
Definitely. It’s the watchmojo-tier content of WoW. I think they help convince people to hate things too. The healthier thing would be if people made series like “Why is [class] good in [patch/comp/2s/3s/whatever]” to highlight their strengths. It would be more educational too.
