Russian Premade Groups in Random BG (EU)

Blizzard you need to stop this. The countless random BGs im going into with teams full of premade groups. when you are doing casual pvp and you go up against a premade russian team who can all communicate etc. this makes it so unfair. the ratio from Ally to Horde is so far apart, its almost impossible for alliance to win random pvp at the moment.

You also need to set up some sort of item level entry requirements for random pvp, maybe like normal and heroic dungeons where you need a certain item lvl to join random pvp heroic. its so frustrating going into a random bg with freshly new lvl 60s with next to no HPā€¦ when you have people who put time into gearing their characters getting held back by these players who expect to be carried through battlegrounds. sort this out blizz before pvp dies.

Yeah, this is undair. Cause should be range by ilvl, and also some rules pre-made vs pre-madeā€¦ orā€¦ I donā€™t know. Mostly time Iā€™m not enjoy the game ( cause of that.

The russians are pretty good, most of the time. Still beatable though.

Worst thing ever was merging russians with the rest of EU.

  1. Most russian players i stumbled upon,do not know English which makes pvp or pve pure hell.

2)Even if they know certain words those words are usually insults followed by :slight_smile:

3)They are world on their own.They do not care about nothing else but russians and russian language.

4)As far as i remember,with Rated bgā€™s release in Cata,top teams were russians with 4 k ratings,who ended up being banned for abusing and cheating,wintrading and damage hacks.

I really donā€™t want to end up with russians in premade and get ban myself because they are well known for abusing stuff.

This is not anti-cultural, anti-national, and anti-ethnic post because i am targeting most russian gamers only.And this is no secret.Anyone who had any contact with russian players will tell you exactly the same.

You want to ban a certain race (a real life race, not an in-game playable race) from BGs? Yeah thatā€™s not going to happen. Prolly a l2p issue anyway

I donā€™t get this. Have another ā€˜ā€˜fun gameā€™ā€™ in AB aka 1500vs110 points 5 caped since 3rd minute. Stack of 10+ premade russians farming horde.

I agree with everything that youā€™re saying here, OP. 100%.

Random Battlegrounds have become a game-mode that Blizzard has really abandoned. Itā€™s left to languish with an utterly negligent attitude making it a complete dumping ground.

Blizzard seem to have abandoned any idea that this is meant to be a competitive game mode thatā€™s easy to get into. Unlike its counterparts - random dungeons and raid finder - there are no systems in place for Random Battlegrounds to help make it more balanced and enjoyable.

There is no MMR, no gear requirements, painfully low rewards for your time, no consequences for toxic behaviour, no consequences for people that are just there to AFK - and letā€™s not forget the Russian Premade issue.

Systems that are well accounted for in other blizzard games - such as Overwatch and Heroes of the storm.

Itā€™s time to show Random BGs some love and bring their standards back inline with other game modes.

Prepare to have your mind blown.

Half of the Russian players play on non-Russian realms in the EU. Speak English, etc.

Yes, really.

what they want is organised teams facing other organised teams
premade vs other premades gear voice chat enchants and all

for the pve part i did some m0s with them and it was smooth

Nobody queues 10mans in random bgs to ā€œface another premadeā€ lol wtf

Thatā€™s rbg, but then all the toys that lag out the opponents wouldnā€™t be usableā€¦

think the OP got some bad horde groups who went docks in isle? failed there
gave up instantly and wanted to blame the russians

if he refers to non epic battlegrounds cant say what happens there
since i only do few epics and 1 or 2 rated a week for the vault reward

From your points, I see that youā€™re thinking exactly like these ā€œevilā€ Russians (but from the EU side) and basically, you have described your own attitude here lol. Despite it is really fun to read such a clichĆ© opinion even without proper formatting, it is also really sad that some Europeans still have this narrow picture of the Worldā€¦

Im playing mercenary and i never met russian or any premade in SL. Idk guys

Ive read through here and im suprised as of yet theres no ā€œbut i like to play with my friends, its a social game team up play with a pvp guildā€ comment.

Playing a ā€œrandomā€ bit of pvp can be a lot of fun and quite chaotic with people kind of going all over with no real organisation and theres certainly a place for it. I do not see the point, apart from giving free and easy honor to organised teams and putting everybody else off going in there, in turning up in a team and just thrashing the opposition time and time again.

I read on the pvp forums theres apparently lots of premade groups on Horde AND Alliance, apparently, just stomping the othersā€¦they certainly arenā€™t on all day but once theyā€™re on youā€™re in trouble if you just like casual pvp.

WHY are the premade teams not matched up against each other?
WHY would premade teams not play against others in Ranked for better rewards?
WHY would Asia not have its own servers, im sure it does. and Russia be part of that so they can all play and beat hell out of each otherā€¦though im sure they wonā€™t be the end of premade groups.

There has to be a way of randomizing random pvp to return the fun but i doubt theyā€™ll ever both its the least of blizz concerns.

THE ONLY WAY youā€™ll ever see change to pvp is if people STOP PLAYING ITā€¦but tbh theyā€™d likely just close it down.

Looks like a severe case of L2P issue. You are bad, got stomped and now desperately try to rationalize why. Couldnā€™t come up with anything better than ā€œmuh evil russkiesā€. Are you DW or CNN journalist by any chance? That would explain.

Its no secret that pure russians are not welcome in any game, atleast the ones ived played so far. Why? Cause they 99% speak no english, except insults. They cheat, cheese and abuse systems whenever they can. Very similar to chinese. Thats why many region lock them.
However the bigger problem is group stacking, just faced a full ravencrest stack, got stomped in 5 min in WSG. Should not possible and also reportable. Couldnt press report button just didnt work. Great game.

i would say i have not met as many russians premades as in BFA end expac yet, because they are currently too busy to farm every byte of the game: they need to outgear random pugs by at least 20-30 ilevel, otherwise they are not interested in the game
