Weird that you acknowledge right here that there is zero reason for a horde to leave for an alliance “benefit” but then at the same time wondering why we say not good enough?
An incentive is meant to be a great benefit where if someone preferred casual PvP like battlegrounds they would see there is a clear distinction to choose alliance. Would you not agree this would be a good thing for imbalance?
We all know you guys picked horde to play with your friends, but let’s pretend hypothetically you didn’t and you played for better racials, better PvP quality overall (since pvpers picked horde intentionally), and better pve racials (take a glance at meme night elf racials if you disagree). What reason then would you ever pick alliance other than aesthetically? The other side needs perks, and real ones not 3 gold.

The equivalent of picking one herb in the open world. Not worth it at all to spend 25 minutes in a BG for. I could case less about items or gold at this point. I need BG tokens or 300 honor per box to make it worthwhile.

So you got close to 20g for 1 bg win (which is repeatable) and thats bad?
I fell off my chair laughing it’s much worse than retail…
Sorry but these have been debunked as flawed and ambiguously presented “stats” in 9 ways from Sunday.

Blizzard confirmed this isn’t true btw. almost dead even 50/50 split in ganking from alliance to horde according ot the stats. Alliance just cry more about getting ganked on a pvp server.
Again, it’s queue. Two extra letters won’t kill you.
Weren’t you the one crying for the game to be changed in the first place? I’m super confused.
Anywho, we already changed the game. Give us better rewards from the box.
It’s not supposed to be better than farming.
It’s supposed to be incentive, you get to play a BG, get honor. AND a box
It’s a perk on top of what you already get for the bg

They nerfed premades, so they obviously did realize the issue. Its actually hilarious that they posted the 50/50 data but clearly acknowledge that premades were a massive issue with the nerf. The data is definitely garbage, and there is absolutely no way that alliance pugs come out of this winning 50% lol. just no chance of that.

If we win…which we rarely ever do…so you’re not just convincing alliance to queue, you’re convincing them they have a solid chance of winning, which without premades is…a pipedream at best?

Bonus honor or bust, real incentives blizzard.
Could you provide a link to where it was debunked?
Hey, horde can’t pre-made either, so seems fair to me.
Removing premades, doesn’t help or harm one faction

They haven’t been debunked. People just don’t like the facts so they do not want to believe them.
Except horde possess a vast majority of the serious PvPers. Please don’t tell me you don’t already know this and aren’t being disingenuous. Considering how we got here, you can’t really convince me you don’t know that horde possess a huge advantage in winning most games non-premade games.

You need to win, which sometimes is very hard.
Wish they just made it like retail where they put in merc mode. People who want fast queues can go alliance for an hour.
The queue times would be better, horde would be on the alliance team and then horde players can insult gnomes in their native tongue. (A favored pastime on my horde retail toons in merc mode).
I mean, I figure that’s the likely case, I’m just curious if I’m wrong. I’m giving the benefit of the doubt.
This is not an incentive. Borderline insult. And I think my box is on the high end. Got guildmates saying they got 2-3 leather or netherweave cloth. No, this will not start me playing more BGs then what I absolutely need to get the two resist pieces I need.

Narcissistic much anything to benefit the horde and to anyone else impacted by changes you should quit. Keep it classy with the moronic responses!
