1000 of those chars were alts
this however is true
Why the glad mount can’t be designed in the mind of the expansion? Nerubian models such as Anub’Arak could have more idea than current Gladiator mount model.

It was never about feeling entitled.
The whole arguement in basically all these threads, polls and whatever is that this mount is not equivallent to the effort and time required to get it.
It’s that simple.
If a Pizza restaurant has expensive but good pizzas, some people will enjoy buying them and allocate resources for this. If that same Pizza restaurant started making bad pizzas under the same prices, less people would go there, and the restaurant as a whole will suffer a great loss in popularity.
Getting defensive will not put more meaning in your reply. I’m simply stating facts. The very fact you refer to “glad people” as a different type of player shows that you put yourself in a different category of player. If I am wrong, and you do actually play 3v3 and have a goal set to reaching Gladiator, feel free to confirm this so your opinions can be taken more seriously.
Trying to twist your way out of the reply by mentioning unrelated topics does not help you put any ground under your response either. This is usually what petty journalists do.
It isn’t, but the other bracket rewards are not meaningful in any way after the 1800 elite set. I am not putting 3v3 on a pedestal here. Everybody can enjoy whatever they want. Of course you can twist this as “an opinion” and tell me that X person would rather have a toy flag on their back they can’t even use in instances rather than a big shiny mount. Sure. Maybe you will find 5 people out of 50000 who will agree with that kind of opinion.
But the thread is about 3v3, therefore we are talking about 3v3. And the reward FROM 3v3.
So that is the topic and that’s what the people replying here care about. Anybody who doesn’t play 3v3 and has no aspirations for Gladiator and the mount from it, simply is in the wrong place to provide an opinion.
An excellent analogy… because just like with mounts, some will want a deep dish with pepperoni /samlami, others will want a neapolitan Margherita,and yet others will prefer a bruschette with meatballs and pineapple
To quote Mike Muir of Suicidal Tendencies: Just 'cause you don´t like it don´t mean it ain’t no good.
It´s a mount, it took just as much effort to make as any other mount. You not liking it aesthetically does not devalue that in any way.
But sure, just give them reasons like this to remove the last bastions of PvP rewards by being ungrateful everytime the rewards don´t fit your preferred style. 
WHY dear god is it ALWAYS PvP players andto a lesser extent M+ players that somehow think they and only they have a right to gatekeep opinions??
Do people not consider you as subcommunities toxic enough yet?
Or are you actively trying to discourage plyers from participating so you can have easymode?

the mount is objectevily nothing special compared to the last expansions glad mounts so of course people are disappointed.
It has no unique skin, no special colors, not even big armor to stand out.
Maybe some people think its a super beautiful mount but most players wont.
Dont understand why people are arguing about that. Its obviously a boring looking mount and having this model/colors for an entire expansion while HURT player participation in 3s by alot.
Players are reward driven. If you make the reward boring people will play less.
The entitlement comes when people demands them to make another mount based on their preference.
Yes, its not a great mount based on some previous mounts.
The issue is how you believe you deserve an amazing mount every single time.
The effort is depending on the person.
Some have extreme easy time getting glad like they do all the time. Do they still deserve a perfect mount every single time when its not too much effort (for them) to get it?
Where do you draw the line on what people truly deserve.
You are not. You have insane amount of tendency to exaggerate.
Glad players is people who are glad players. Those are the people with the loudest voice about the mount and demand it to be changed for a mount that suits them more. Its not about me saying im a different kind of player, its about me knowing the difference between a glad player and a normal player.
But you can keep making assumptions.
Its not unrelated.
When people tend to exaggerate or lie they usually do it more than once. You do it every now and then even when its not fully related to DHs.
Sorry that I tend to look into BS when its obvious.
Its the same way you try to proclaim theres alot more glad players but dont even take alts into consideration because “I know a few who got glad for the first time.”
When petitions and ppl call out the “PvP community” demanding it to change then it also accounts to every PvPer. Not just the 3v3 gladiators and wannabes.
If people stick with calling out the 3v3 playerbase wants it changed, fine, I would most likely not even have replied to begin with.
But he also said “We deserve much better than this.”
Who deserve better and why? Why do you believe you deserve better?
Alot of the issues also comes down to the 3v3 playerbase itself and their mentality.
Its a mount and another glad achievement you get to your collection.
Do you believe majority of the PvP playerbase cares when they wont even be able to get it to begin with?
Fix the fundamental issues with LFG 3v3 and dont have a lock on MMR so people get frustrated facing R1/glads when they are not supposed to simply because they play on alts since they cannot gain anymore rating on their main.
Theres alot of improvements that could be made to make the game more fun and attract more players.
If rewards are what drives ppl to play 3v3, just add more rewards in there and you get what you say will make more ppl play it.
People that push Gladiator/r1 in 3v3 bracket are top of the crop of all players in the whole game,ofc they deserve every season good looking mount.
Id argue who deserves a rly good looking mount every season are R1 players.
Yes they do,and they take it on their way of getting their r1 title reward also.Or should i say they should of …cuz TWW s1 Glad mount is worse than random zone npc mount drops
Has nothing to do with it that they get it “on their way”. If we are talking about “top of the crop” then its R1 players. The ones who push beyond 2400.
If I buy a boost to 2400 and get my glad, do that automatically make me top of the crop?
I never argued that they cant ask for change of the mount.
I argued the way they do it by exaggerating and lying while demanding.
Im not talking about boosting,you can get boosted to r1 also.And ill be fine by adding one more mount to R1 players as additional reward.But lets talk here about realistic stuff.Gladiator mount must be unique and amazing looking every single season,because Gladiator and R1 are the highest achivements in the whole game.
Yes you can get boosted to R1 even if its more difficult or cost quite alot more compared to glad.
My question were would that make you “top of the crop” if you do that?
Who says it has to be every single season?
Is it hurting boosters wallet that people are buying less?
Its your belief that glad players deserve amazing mounts all the time while I am of the opinion that the only ones who truly deserve an amazing mount if so, are R1 players only.
You can get boosted in every game,as i said i dont care about boosted ones.Ofc they are not the top of the crop(they will show it easily when playing with players around their boosted raitings),they will have only the reward and thats it.
I say it,and majority of Gladiator players that show they are skilled enough to achive it.
As i said,Im up for Super amazing giga chad mount for R1 players,but that wont happen so lets talk about reality
The reality is that R1 players could very well get an amazing mount every season if blizz rly wanted to.
But you are trying to demand that glad players should get an amazing mount every season which is just pure entitlement.
Ye i live in reality,and i know Blizzard wont change and give R1 players additional amazing mount,cuz they didnt do it for whole existance of Arena in the game.So that leave Gladiator mount,that should be unique and good looking every season,cuz people that throw their time and work hard to get it deserve it!
People throw in time and work hard for alot of different parts of the game.
If you lived in reality you would know blizz decides what rewards you get and they rarely (if ever?) change an entire mount into a new one because ppl demanded it.
But I already said its fine to ask for it anyway, just dont exaggerate/lie or demand it.
People do throw time and work in alot of parts of the game,but we are talking about the part of the game that shows who is the better player,not who is good at standing afk and grinding bears for meat.
Blizzard changed a few times already mounts,so we know thats atleast possible
Show links where they did. We talking about entire mount now. Not small bits.
So R1 are better players than you. So why do you deserve the amazing mount when they put more effort and time than you?
I remember they changed the one for mount collecters and if im not wrong they changed atleast one other mount after community were enraged.
Ofc R1 players are better than me.And we are talking now in circles…I said im all for R1 players to get god chad mount,but i live in reality and i know Blizzard wont change how they give rewards.So atleast they can make Gladiator mount unique and good looking for the 2nd best achivement in the game.
Yes they changed for mount collectors. Once I believe. We are talking about PvP.
They changed something with a mount, but they did not create a new mount to change it which alot of ppl are asking for.
We are not.
I am saying if you want a pure amazing mount every single season it should be based on % of players and not 2400 rating and 50 wins. As it used to be.
I dont look at glad players anymore like I used to since I know alot of them are just paid actors. Shadowlands mostly ruined this part for me.
Even while there are ppl who paid for R1 they are alot less. So if you truly want an amazing mount to be added for the “top of the crop” it should only be for R1 or % based.
