Playing BG Blitz solo

Started a twin peak BG Blitz with 2x people on glad mounts on my team. I told them this game is most likely a loss because enemy team had a MW monk and we didn’t. They got right up on their eletist high horse’s, Having a field day with my 22/45 win loss ratio and insisting it isnt completely out of your control playing solo. Well guess what

We both doubled the enemy healers healing, Followed the objectives and still lost. The enemy MW monk flew 100k miles up in the air across the entire BG where nobody could touch him and afterwards the druid was salty asf, Still insisting BG blitz outcomes werent out of your control lol.

I’l keep doing blitz for conquest cap and maybe towards a saddle but dont take this new bracket too serious people, Outside of broken classes like MW monk you have duo queues, A wonky mmr system AND boosters on top of everything else so when it comes to climbing solo the odds really are stacked against you

healers have it hard in blitz
unless you play Evoker or MW monk

my hpala even though im a 55% win rate is still stuck at 1600
and im doing 300m healing each game easily

the problem is, its a 50% chance its a flag game and we cant win those without those classes

if you play DPS, you have a much easier time climbing as the 2 healers spots have a higher chance being MW monk or PRes evoker
which will land you wins more often

legit. they take slowfall , torpedo off the side and it flings them across teh whole map

and then they teleport through the wall to the flag point

Haven’t seen this yet.
If just down to the water then it’s en-par with similar abilities, but across entire map is ridonculous.

Is fair game.

not really
considering some classes cannot use their toolkit with the flag

id argue Monks should have the same, they shouldn’t be allowed to use theirs

imagine if paladins could bubble with a flag, or a hunter turtling or a warlock using demonic circle or a druid using tranq
etc…

its just an oversight and id expect blizzard to update it sooner than all these Monk Rerollers think

I think the flying may be, but an oversight of Port that’s lasted over a decade? Unlikely.

you underestimate player feedback i think
everyone is screaming about MW in blitz

mw has a target on its back

Oh I think we’re all quite aware.

No one was screaming about Port for the last 10+ years. Only change in TWW is an extra TFT + dbl-jump after Torpedo.

This is why I quit playing disc. I had an insane loss streak, where I lost every ctf due to not having monk, because I take 50% of the spots and then I lost few more with teams that simply didnt do any objectives attempts at all. This got me into a stale of getting +0 for wins and -20 for losses, so the char is bricked. I cant get a big win streak to fix it due to being almost unable to win a ctf map. No way I will ever touch it as a healer. I had to relevel a new char, went dps and I doubled the rating in 2 evenings. One rly has to hate his life to be a healer in this game.

my MMR on my hunter is 2300
my mmr on my Hpala is 1600

i did the exact same, im just queuing as DPS now but my paladin is bricked as the MMR has slumped

worse case scenerio ill have to find a MW monk that wants to carry my paladin past 1600 elo rating

Appreciate the breakdown Axran. Wasent too sure how it worked or what they were doing

Heh, unfortunately I dont think you can que as double healer, only healer+dps. But you can still go ret once the conq cap is lifted to completely regear it to ret and I believe your mmr should be reset for the other spec.

yeh already started on my Ret only done 6 games but won 5
im at 1200 ish rating from those 6 games

ill probably just sling shot myself to 1800 and then log out

They take lighter than air and double jump between torpedos

how does boosting in bgb work?

But saddle progress is also broken :))))))

just q with guy with High MMR. Simple is that.

So I noticed when I picked up my flag on a hunter (something I rarely do) a couple of defensive abilities were unusable as a flag carrier. Made sense as carrier plus turtle was unfair.

if this is possible it shouldn’t be a huge effort for Blizz to make the godmode MW mobility stuff grey out as a flag carrier too.
