Ya imagine not being apathetic and nonchalant about everything 
Change is prob fine just feels lazy when we were hoping for more systemic adjustments
I know you care a lot about it too. It’s fine.
I mean… yea I guess? They don’t seem to care about PvP.
As opposed to how much they care about keys and raid or what
Answer the question, why is 3s more dead after the change was implemented to make Gladiator more achievable?
You’re arguing from a place of ignorance about a title you’ve never seen. Should try to learn instead of trying to speak. You’re like an uninformed voter, just with far less power (thankfully).

I’m not arguing anything. You’re trying to argue about nothing because I guess being told you’re overthinking something really upsets you.
I don’t have an answer to why 3s is more dead other than solo modes being easier. This isn’t about the mode being dead thjough… this is about you being upset they lowerd the rating by 100.
You’re cringe.

You’re getting baited brother. Its best not to reply because whatever you say won’t matter they will respond in a way that keeps you coming back. These aren’t people worth engaging.

yea, fair enough. It’s clear that he’s just mad about a little bit of rating.
You’re talking to someone who invested their entire life into this game and has nothing else going on but trolling on the forums.
Kennie where’s the screenshot of his games played
When 1500 Rival Elite unlock?
Keep in mind this is when he had a secondary and I think? Tertiary shaman and later hid or deleted them. Oh, and the evoker which he couldn’t push as dev on and rerolled aug to avoid missing elite in s2. 
He hasn’t logged off in the five years he has played so not sure why he’s throwing rocks.

This is the crux of the issue to me. The LFG tool is archaic and needs updated with more automated features to pair people with other teammates. 2400 Gladiator became harder because people aren’t playing 3’s because they follow the path of least resistance when it comes to queueing and that’s just pressing 1 button for Shuffle. If people could press 1 button and get paired with other players for a 3v3 game they’d do it too and participation (and inflation) would skyrocket. Just my 2 cents on the matter ggs gl hf wp etc

How does one explain to mmo players that they’ve lost the plot when they just want an automated group maker attached to every form of group content which offers carrots to get people to attempt to establish some sort of lasting group anything
Are we cooked
Like LFG needs tweaks/improvements and more people so you can find queues but the whole game not being an automated queue isn’t a bug
To me the change to 2300 just looks like a half-hearted attempt to try and say “see, we haven’t forgotten about you guys” instead of doing something more meaningful that would require a little more thought and effort. Such as renown track-style rewards, or a cool cosmetic worth working towards slotted in-between Glad and R1, etc.
Seems like just throwing some random bone out there with the hopes of it giving the impression of Blizz “staying invested in the bracket” while also covering a base of “whadda ya mean you feel ignored?”
Seems, looks, feels just random and non-sensical. I can’t speak for anyone else that approaches the game like I do, but the 100 rating difference doesn’t move the needle one iota as far as motivating me or making me think “hey, now that might be doable I might go for it next season.”

Ye honestly a casual reward path is probably something that’d be really good
Honor level system bit of a floppo
To me it doesn’t really matter what the ideal scenario is for how an mmo should function, real life is always a give and take and we are seeing what the end result is of forcing people to jump through extra hoops to play a pvp mode (one that has the best rewards at that). They just don’t do it for the most part. So we could continue down this path and end up with 2100 Glad in 2030 or accept the reality that people just want to press a button to queue up and work with that. 
Because there’s an easier way right thar
Something like that wouldnt even have to be marketed exclusively toward casuals though - the higher up renown levels could be rating dependent, not just participation rewards. But it could have the effect of that carrot on the stick for a casual in the sense of something like “I got to renown 16, but dang that Gladiator’s Flag of Ownership at renown 18 looks ILL AF gotta get it.” And maybe they try to push up higher than they planned or thought themselves capable.
The hopes would be getting more people active and invested obviously, but at the same time if it offered good rewards that could somehow juggle both participation (# of games played or won) with rating, it could prompt people to either play more than they have in the past, or ideally try to push up higher than in the past.
I dunno, just spitballing. I don’t -really- care since I haven’t approached rated content seriously since MoP, but at the same time if the rated brackets are healthy and active, that’s would be great for PvP in general and the game as a whole. In that sense I do care.
100% but again if we are being realistic it’s not going away so we gotta work in solutions knowing shuffle exists and 3v3 is competing with it for player participation.
