Alliance, Stop Throwing Very Winnable AB Games!

Driving me nuts today and boiling my blood. I had 4 AB games so far where as alliance we wipe 10 horde at BS with 0 deaths and they refuse to play and deathball to farm what would easily be a 4 cap or 5 cap game. They refuse to cap stables in these games when they are all sitting at the node when we are just farming the horde.

That’s 4 games we could easily have 5 capped and won but they did nothing and said they will report me for capping.

These weren’t games were horde had us spawn camped at ST or Trollbane Hall but games where the horde group was so trash we kept destroying them without any deaths. These games the highest horde HK’s was 3.

Please report other players who blatantly try throwing very winnable games and say to throw in chat.

you have got to be a forum troll. alliance don’t win PUG BGs brother. stop lying, stop trolling, stop trying to change the narrative. PvP will continue to be a unplayable cespool until SoD devs learn how to properly do their job and intervene in the problems that they create, which probably won’t ever happen. SoD is a total failure from a PvP perspective and they have self admittedly said they don’t care about it multiple times. that statement clearly show all the way back to day 1, phase 1

Well I finally won a AB about 15 mins ago and we 4 capped horde.

While PvP balance is a major issue, so many Alliance Players give up against a horde team that REALLY sucks and would be an easy win.

It’s one thing when Alliance is just destroyed and camped at Stables or Trollbane Hall. It’s another when Alliance destroys the horde at BS without losing a single player vs 10 horde and can easily 4 or 5 cap for win.

i just capped as a horde priest and i personally saw the alliance throw games (or appear to throw them, it’s hard to say exactly), they seem to really love gold mine which is the worst node ever created, they constantly death ball around and give away free bases because they don’t want to give up the kill honor. They are capable of winning the fights and then just don’t bother doing any objectives, they almost play like one giant multibox

Post on main or be quiet.

This can’t stand. I’ll have to log in and 5 cap you guys 12 times in a row now.

Every sane payer rerolled horde 3 phases ago.

once in a while Alliance gets a decent pug, not often but it happens, been on 2 Ally AB 5 capping the Horde and a small handful of close wins over the last couple days, and there has been games that Alliances dumb murderball that they named it, has pinned the Horde at their gy but people still would not cap or defend :dracthyr_shrug:

This has been my experience.

They have no strat other than form up and all go together.

Its really terrible.

now it is half the team trying since the change and half doing nothing but chasing Horde ignoring the objectives, created longer games but the same 5 cap crap in the end, so tiresome, enjoyed AV more than this nonsense, but now AV has long queues.

Well I have done the Insane grind 3 times. Once on my OG (couldn’t recover) account in WotLK. And on my DK and after they announced White/Grey transmog this mage.

Well thats what happens when you let thousands of exploiters off with barely a slap on the wrist. Alliance clearly knows by now that they are above the rules and can just blame blizzard or horde for all of their decisions.

I was actually in one of those games. Everyone said go farm and then bs and don’t cap flags, so we all did it cuz pure pressure.

And then Horde sort of just crumpled and we wound up 5 capping them and they folded and gave up and didn’t try to stop us.

Was so weird.

Of course, my other twenty ABs today were all losses, so that seems like a pretty rare occurrence, but it was a funny one.

Alliance usually solo queues and Horde usually premades. This is why even in Classic 2019 horde usually hade a 90%+ win rate in WSG and AB.

Aggrend HATES alliance players.

Correction: Alliance usually PvEs and Horde usually PvPs. This leaves the minority of Alliance players who want to PvP forced to solo queue.

Frankly, the state of SoD PvP and Alliance/Horde win rates is 20 years in the making. Horde racials are OP in PvP in Classic WoW. This is no different for SoD, but most PvPers didn’t roll Horde in SoD for racials, they rolled Horde in SoD because they’ve been playing Horde in Classic WoW for 20 years now… because of racials.

There’s really no fixing it at this point tbh. Even if Devs were to give everyone access to everyone’s racials like they should have done back in the character select screens at the start of SoD, there would still be an inbuilt imbalance in the quality of PvPers on each faction based on PvP culture that’s literally almost old enough to drink at this point.

The alliance 100% can win ABs. Here is a protip: a lot of horde (who are alliance alts) will give up the minute alliance fight back. Try playing to win guys… You will see and win more.

I’m considering rerolling as alliance to help them out.

no point, sod is fried. wait fresh

Ya, hopefully we get to send our characters to retail or something to keep them.
