Thanks for ruining Battleground Blitz, Blizzard!

PVP Battlegrounds

This is due to the gearing system, not the BG itself.

This affects any type of PvP.

5 man premade is fine. Or you want to remove the only way to be able to play non-rated pvp with friends?

22

I do not have any solution for that except another type of BG’s. So you mean you play with friends and you enjoy but price of suffer other players?))) oookkaay! We need new Stalin! Everywhere! :slight_smile:

If honestly I do believe it’s easy to resolve. Pre-mades should play with pre-mades or up to 3 ppl, or Epic BG. BTW, everybody forget epic BG’s, but this is amazing place for pre-mades.

23

I’m already destroying my mental health by playing in blitz with zug zug pugs.

At least in random I can avoid it.

Im not huge fan of epics.

Would be nice to have a game mode that awarded conquest where you didn’t have to deal with the toxic tryhards, ye.
I want to cap conquest every week so I can continue gearing for pvp. But I don’t really care about rating. I like to smash up some bgs every now and again, and to do some wpvp. Some arenas with friends is fun, but the solo shuffle thing is way too toxic for me.

But the most disruptive thing in rated pvp, when it comes to solo play, is the queue times. It just takes too long to get into a match. Probably not something blizz can fix easily, unless they make a game mode that is dps specs only. No need to wait for healers etc.

Same here, but what’s to do? I simply do not have PvP guild, try find static group
 at some rating they will become toxic to each other. My friends leave this game and go to another projects because they think this game is s
t so
 I have been waiting for Solo RBG, but didn’t expect 1) so unbalanced classes, 2) so broken MMR again, 3) broken rating, 4) all of the problems which exist so many years!

8x8 without healers and 8x8 within healers as different format – yes, give me that!

hell no Arenas are disgusting! What a horrible thing to have in a game the Arenas are. Absolutely the worst most vitriolic idea. 1v1 sure, but 3v3? 2v2? Just completely unfair.

it was a brawl to test it before it became a Rated version
just like solo shuff was not rated in SL before it became rated in DF

the only brain dead person in this post is yourself

its competitive by nature . its rated.
if you want non competitive gameplay go play casual bgs

or just get good ?

29

I don’t think the wish to have an unrated blitz available is unreasonable?

Random BG is so full of premades, and you don’t want to play the sweaty version always

I really like your idea of trying to streamline random BGs to the Blitz format. Another suggestion if they dont do that is maybe a unrated version of Blitz like before as a place for people to learn.

Why do people refer to premades as “sweaty”?

Playing with random pugs in solo queue is more stressful, so you’ll sweat more than going premade. This is a fact.

32

I’m sitting in a chair behind a screen listening to music watching youtube and having fun in random/solo bg’s. What is stressful about bg’s again lol? It’s literally just a clobberfest. How people are stressed over a random gamemode is beyond me.
Also random bg’s have pretty much no requirement to join. Used to be filled with people in questing greens or warriors with intelect gear lmao. Basically random bg’s notorious for the amount of headless chickens. And that’s the game mode to run around in with a team of geared commando’s use voice and what not? I don’t mind it, I like people that take bg’s bit serious but cmon, it’s pretty fkn sweaty :joy:

33

Sweaty as in try-hard as in doing anything to guarantee their win by having usually an unfair advantage since the others more than likely joined solo and only solo.

solo queing is the most casual way to play since you’re not waiting for friends to come online and you’re not setting up a discord channel and sharing the key to strangers to join so you can coordinate random BG’s where you only get honor.

It’s pathetic really. Having a team coordinate with you and have your best interests in mind means the games automatically lean in your favour giving you easy wins.

34

I rarely use voice channel. Another thing is that you assume that every group you see is synchronized. I just play with some mates that know what to do in the BG.

But at least I don’t have to open a thread complaining about my faction losing all the bgs. :wink:

You are proving me right

You’re just saying that because 9/10 out of your entire daily activity is bashing noobs in random battlegrounds while you have conquest gear.

I can guarentee you, if they put up an experiment for solo queue random battlegrounds / random epic battlegrounds with the same scaling and same ruleset as battleground blitz, everybody would be queueing that and the people wanting to bash noobs, or the premades will be left to fend each other.

36

ain’t no way you think a 1v1 is fair but 3v3 isn’t.

try beating a fury warrior who has their monitor turned off as a spriest.

try beating a frost mage as a ww monk.

try beating an MM hunter as a fire mage.

I was referring to rated blitz as sweaty. Playing vs premades is just annoying.

you are so naive to assume that in random Bgs there are only “noobs” and that we never meet premades of the horde. :dracthyr_crylaugh:

I can agree with that.

39

You’re being ridiculous.

I didn’t assume there are only noobs and I didn’t assume that you never meet premades.

What I said is that the reason you’re enjoying random battlegrounds and claim they are fine as they are, is because I assume you’re the kind of person that loves gearing up in full conquest just to demolish people with honor gear in battlegrounds, or that you’re enjoying them purely because you’re playing pre-mades only.

You keep bringing up the gear issue. I’ve said on numerous occasions, including recently, that I’d ideally like to see gear progression removed from PvP and everyone be equal.

I would still playing BGS if 100% of the population was full conquest geared.

Premades are a small beacon that allows Bgs to be enjoyable, since with random, most of the time you will see how nobody meets the objectives and the only thing they do is stick together in the middle or running like headless chickes, for that reason I am against converting normal Bgs into non-rated soloQ

I’m also playing Rated Blitz to a lesser extent and don’t want normal BGs to become something like that circus.
