Solo WSG queue as Horde - mindblowing wait times

Every since the change has come into play, that premades are not being matched against solo players as a first priority - something has changed for solo players.

We did some tests.
You queue solo and you get 10-15min wait times on average, wasn’t rare to get 20+ minutes. While the average wait timer shows 7-8minutes.

At the same exact time, same server - you queue as a group, 2-3 people. You get instant to 1min queues.

Why am I being forced to queue as a group to get some pvp action? Why is the new algorithm punishing solo play?

SoD needs arena. experiment with it in phase 3 instead of a PvP event plz blizz.

Waiting 15 minutes for a queue pop on horde has been a thing for many many years

not my Problem
1-2 min ally

Not my problem either. I’m not a new player. I prefer 10-15 min queues to instant qs

its a real problem. as ally u get 1-2 min queue solo but u lose 80% of bgs, on horde u get 10 min queue but win most bgs, as someone that plays both sides i think the balance currently is abysmal and it shows

The thing is. Alliance aren’t really signing up for pvp anymore because it is quite literally impossible to win.

Undeads can’t be cc’d and shamans got insane DMG, health and Totems.

Alliance just get farmed in BG’s. So why bother signing up.

  • There are almost no rewards
  • STV gives better rep
  • The ashenvale event still gives 1k weekly wsg rep
  • Ranking goes quickly and gives nothing good
  • Hordes racials and shamans are overtuned with the current meta
  • A lot of alliance players are bad or children

So why waste time?

Alliance is doing fine, even great in AB (can’t speak about WSG) when it’s pug vs pug.
But for some reason I see a gigantic increase of 5 man horde premades recently and that’s enough to kill my fun and sign me out of AB for an undetermined amount of time.

Good. I hope que times increase to 1-2 hours soon enough.

Such cringe weekly-pvers commenting on this post. Instead of leveling your 12th alt, stop crying and que up. As if there is much other content in the game.
