Yes it was extremely common in WSG and AB that if you wanted a specific strat you would need to rally the rest or at least some the rest of the team.

Specific strat != Specific strat -just- for PvP to happen. Other BGs do not have a way to successfully play the BG that specifically avoids PvP. Espousing the idea that you need to ‘rally the group’ if you want to PvP in a PvP BG is a backward argument that actually -highlights- the problem with the post 1.11 version of AV.

Sure they do, it was not uncommon for people in WSG or AB to give up after an initial bad start. Motivating people to continue after that point is no different than defending against a zerg in AV.
