This game will die off quick as people realise its for those who pvp a lot. Most won’t be alive for a minute or so and will be queuing and waiting longer than they play. if you want transmog do it now before it dies and becomes a grind, I give it a week.

its perfectly fair, done 7 matches and not got to level 2 yet. its a grind now, it will be a massive grind when it dies in a week when less Q. By the way its stands at 280 games minimum needed, and rising with each game i don’t hit level 2.

Battle Royale, the worst type of PvP.
Some back luck and all you worked for is lost

Its not for those who PVP alot, those who PVP a lot, want Class design new BGs, Rated Solo BG`s.
This is a washed-down Fortnite, it`s for Those players who like fortnite and Battleroyale, not the PVP players.
they could have just called it Battle Royal.
I’m ten matches in still level 1, so that’s a bare minimum of 400 games for most players to do the track. so i guess it is fortnite
I watched the dev interview yesterday, and they literally said that the rewards are “40 levels or renown which you gain pretty quickly”. After playing a few games, I have to say what a total pile of BS. 
Bland, bland, grind, grind, carrot, carrot, fomo, fomo.

So far I’m seeing a lot of people whining that they die too quickly.
Just remember that wow arena/bgs etc, those players who think they’re hot stuff, will get rolled in PlunderPlop even by a newbie. The systems are different, you don’t have your pvp gear to help you out.
Once I’ve finished my work here (work from home yay), I’ll finally jump in and have my first match and I hope I find my bush asap \o/
People are complaining because it`s a standard basic battle royal.

The majority will die within a minute or so most will stop playing. Warcraft is mostly a pve game people are not going to Q, wait around and then die a minute later. its has a week before it sets in.
If the participation is as low as it should be I’m gambling Blizzard will have to buff the percentage of renown gain at some point, so I’m just waiting until then.
There is a zero percent chance I’m grinding this absolute tat just for Blizzard to buff renown by hundreds of percentage later.

i am not even gonna try playing even one match . can be spent doing something else that is useful in the game

I don’t feel this is for “players who PvP a lot”. You have 7 buttons, two of which are for a movement skill and the healing potion. This isn’t very complicated and doesn’t require dexterity and particularly good reflexes. The only advantage that PvP players have is that they are not anxious about fighting other players and probably are more proactive and willing to engage.
The issue is just the randomness. If you get the OP abilities quickly and level up faster, you’ll have a massive advantage. It is heavily RNG dependent, which is the opposite of what PvP players look for.
The rate at which renown/plunder is earned is too low, or, alternatively, the amount needed to progress through the renown levels is too high. At least for a time limited event.
I agree that the novelty will wear off, but the carrot is big and juicy, so many people will keep playing this, whether or not they enjoy it. Just like they do any number of other not-so-enjoyable things in the game if the rewards are attractive enough. It’s not good for customer happiness, but it’ll keep the event going. Besides, I would be willing to bet that we’ll see tweaks very soon.
Yeah i have played if for 2 hours now and only JUST getting to renown 3… Our time as paying customers is NOT being respected. Remember this is not a free to play mode. Our money is our time in this game. I could be doing raids, keys, tmog or mount farms or leveling alts and a number of other things with that paid time that feels rewarding. This is not fun and it is not rewarding

This was not designed to be part of dragonflight which is why its outside the game. this is a new game idea they will bring in as a stand alongside retail billed as dragon flight to entice people in.
Yet 99% of the rewards are for your Dragonflight account…

I thought it was fun at 1st. A little frustrating, but still fun.
Now I think it’s going to be a horrible grind and Im only lvl 2.
Land, die, wait, land, die, wait, land, die…
It’s basically a PVP event with PVE rewards to draw in PVE players, so all the PVPers are having a field day wiping the floor with people that don’t generally play that content.
Those that don’t generally PVP will find it really hard to gain in renown and get the shinies they want, because they will die so fast all the time, whilst the others will race ahead.
Another badly thought out system
