Many people would love to play ranked battlegrounds.
Nobody wants to wait for 10 people to gather in LFG, only for one of the 10 to be AFK when the ready check starts, and then having to go through the whole process a second time when the first BG is over.
It’s tedious, it takes too long and it’s annoying.
Let us queue solo, or in groups of 3 maximum, for ranked BGs.
i dont want it,you will have bunch of people afk in rated and toxicity will be even worse then normal BG.
Good thing it would be optional then, and you’d still be able to play RBGs the old way if you choose to.
Why do you want to take options away from players?
because you will have same issue with solo rated shufle where there is only 6 ppl,imagine that s hit with 20ppl xD
Yea, what fun it will be when you have no rogue or bear tank or whatever the meta is vs a team that does have because “solo queue”.
I’m okay with that.
You queue in knowing the risk.
Besides, since no team will have a META comp, individual skill will get to shine more.
You might be ok with a disastrously bad queue experience but most people won’t be.
If a solo queue goes bad its on Blizz to fix it. If you assemble your own group and its a bad experience then Blizz can wash their hands of it to an extent.
After seeing the disaster that is solo shuffle, just no. They should probably give up on solo ranked PvP.
Solo shuffle is downright unplayable because of the horrible matchmaking algorithm and the amount of leavers and people that are queuing into each other intentionally.
They need a heavy hands on policy for solo ranked pvp if it’s meant to be playable.
I’d play it 
Am a casual tho
You might think it sounds nice but… no just no. Afk toxic players everywhere. No communication. It would be an absolute nightmare.
Reduce afk timer to 15sec
Increase it to 2 hours
Good thing it would be optional then, meaning those who are unhappy with the matchmaking can choose not to partake in.
Why do you want to take that option away from the players who are okay with the hazardous nature of matchmaking?
Because of the knock on effects that these decisions have is why. Like if they added this for M+ the failure rate would go up. The implication is that people would be unhappy and the logical next step is that people ask for nerfs and they’d eventually get them.
This would lower the bar of the game as a whole.
I’ve not thought through the whole chain of events in pvp but it would likely be similar. I mean what they really should be doing it fixing balance so it doesn’t matter if its a guardian druid, prot warr / pala etc signing up and that would make the “non autoqueue” side less rubbish…
I’m really digging solo shuffle so far and it had the same counter arguments as here so I say: Bring on some solo queue rated bg!
It would basically be the current Random BGs with rating attached to it. And there would be so much whine about the enemy team having a better comp, about quitters, why do they have 4 DHs when my team has shamans and warriors, why do I lose rating when I did objectives and everyone else was bad etc.
Now people do not whine (as much) because without the rating, BGs aren’t mostly viewed as serious business.
Well Blizz could try to define team compositions. That’ll be up to them to find a solution.
About anything.
Let’s not add, remove, or change anything ever then. People will complain, and we can’t have that.
I’ve avoided PvP in WoW for the last few years because it’s so badly balanced and all about ilvl rather than skill.
But I’ll give Solo Shuffle a try in Dragonflight. I’d also really like rated solo queue Battlegrounds.
i look at bgs and epic bgs and i think…no…it would be a toxic garbage fire. =)
