Alliance in epic BG’s?

Hey umm are you guys ok? How’s the morale over there? I honestly can’t remember the last time I lost an epic battle ground as horde unless we are attacking on wintergrasp. AV, ashran and isles of conq are a guaranteed win lately. But that’s just my small perspective, what are you guys seeing?

Pretty good. Getting plenty of HKs, flagging many corpses. Rage whispers are at an all-time high.
How about yourself?

I love those rage whispers, just warms the heart!

Usually the initial people blab their garbage before the gates open and depending on the epic, broken record buzzwords and quit within the first 2 minutes. RIP back-fillers. Ashran outcome is obvious the first minute the gates open. WG on O is a loss depending on the split past the bridge, IoC is over as soon as the gates open and everybody hard rights. AV is over the minute everyone rides past SH Bunker. 3 horde on D alone cause alliance to lose the tower race, actually 1 monk with ROP at the gate can do it lol…

Edit: WG D is a 50/50 coin flip. IF I see more than 5 dead at the start of lust, chat fills with WTF IS THIS LAG BLIZZARD, ect. Mass quits, Vehicles beating at our walls while everyone afks at the workshop talking trash the whole game.

Very bad. I think I’m losing 70% of the BGs.
I rolled a Tauren Druid on Area 52 recently, got it to level 60 2 days ago and been doing Epic BGs as Horde and winning 80% of the BGs.
Just won 5 IOC in the last 5 consecutive games.
Glad I defected to the Horde.

I won two Ashrans today as Alliance. I’ll never forget that, lol.

What’s “morale”? Is that when the chat erupts into arguments?

Alliance win a lot on Oceana… IoC and AV are normally a guaranteed win for us… Ashran we win if we backdoor mage and go straight to Ogre, which seems to happen 50% of the games… Oceana Horde are brainless sometimes…

I also defected to horde. Worse comes to worse… can always merc.

Yeah, it’s not good. Alliance are winning maybe 1 in 10? Doesn’t help when we always seem to be offence in Wintergrasp and Horde have an advantage in Ashran with flowers. But in AV and IOC it’s been a slog as well. Arguing within a few minutes and then getting rofl stomped. But at this point, not sure what Blizz can do to fix it. They allowed this to happen.

It has been this way for over 2 years. The only solution is to reroll horde. Should be an easy adjustment for you as a void elf.

I still can’t get used to the twirly ballerina Frost Strike on my new Blood Elf. Starting to wish I rolled Orc.

All I read was “blah blah blah…”

IDK how some of you are really seeing 1/10 win/loss. It’s been pretty even on my end, even playing epics with new alts so i don’t get stuck in WSG with 22k health.

All around feels 50/50 to me which i don’t mind at all, it’s called random for a reason. Might be a player issue. Even trashran is close to 50/50 but is usually obvious which way it will go after the first fight. Hope all the floaters keep swapping horde.

If you are ally and you want to do better in trashran tell your team about songflowers. The horde for some reason start with super easy access to them while also having an actual mage to fight not a bot like Rylai. They give 15% stats and it lasts through death. Go get one, link it, tell your team.

Gilneas and Silvershard are the ones that feel like big losers for some reason.

This also happened recently, so honestly who knows what other bias just exists in the game secretly:

Player versus Player

  • Vanndar Stormpike peered across the Alterac Valley battleground and saw that his adversary’s health was 20% higher than his own. Not to be outdone, Vanndar has put in the work and increased his own health by 20%.

Depends on your server group. Which a lot of people forget. If you’re at 50/50, then congratz. You’re in the one server grouping that isn’t total trash for Alliance.

Then you are too, i see moon guard in my randoms but maybe it is just epics if they are different. I think a lot of people go in to pvp with a pve mindset, or just want the gear right now and float through BGs. Seen a fair share of questionable plays but it is what it is. Maybe alliance lore or whatever attracts more pve types.

Its just the player base is unbalanced. Horde have a ton more players than alliance on every server group. So they naturally will have more pvpers, that only do pvp content. Just numbers. Yeah we might be in the same server group though idk. You must have some mad luck. I’ve gone hours straight with no wins, and no close games some days.

Stop spreading misinformation. Battlegroups ceased existing back in Cataclysm. You are now paired with anyone in your region.

I lost every IOC we played last night to Alliance because Horde are still convinced they can win with Hangar / Workshop while simultaneously ignoring glaives.

Nerf glaive hp.

Lol I wish I was alliance in those games. Every game I ran into horde went all docks and dumpstered us.

Are the Anduin’s Knights still in business with their 40 man premades ? I’m over the constant losing epic battlegrounds and want to roll with some premades
