It’s just luck of the draw man. I lost my first three games in epic fashion; it didn’t matter what I did. In one game, my self-casted earth shield as an ele shaman ended up outhealing one of the two healers on my team.
Fourth game was an incredibly easy win - the noobs were all on the enemy team this time.
Just gotta keep queueing and hopefully crawl out of the low bracket.
And yes it was very frustrating
my losing streak was so unbelievably bad last night… i dont even think if i had pikaboo as my partner we would have won a single game
every game is 1500-100, 3-0 etc.
i wish i can get 1 good game today… im so sick and tired of every game being a complete blowout
yawn
Queue with me on your healer you dork
my man said he wants to suffer together lol
Unfortunately no, pings aren’t very useful for calling incoming.
I use an addon for that though. I play with a keypad instead of my keyboard, so switching to type is annoying.
There used to be a map based one, which showed base cooldowns and everything, but I can no longer find it or it has been discontinued. I just use the Shift-M map most of the time now anyway.
I always stop queuing for the day if I’m on a big loss streak. It worked the same way in Overwatch. CoD was kinda similar as well, ppl there called it engagement based matchmaking
At this point I just weekly cap and get out. Not worth the stress. Everyone is mostly a disappointment. Main issue is, allowing players with full honor to queue for this, to them is just a random Bg…. Nobody cares or listens to anything.
Either that or when you queue up, add one of those ,
“Are you a robot? Nah I don’t believe you, match the raccoon flying a kite pic on that puzzle and let’s see if I let you queue up” system.
i have no clue how dps mains can do this
sit in Q for 25 mins on my DH just to get put on yet another team that does nothing but sit mid all game.
i just went AFK, they didnt even notice
le sigh
DH is one of top flag carriers and atrocious in kotmogu for ability to leap over corners [and I think from the pit up to second base?]
Blitz inspires creativity and rewards it.
Sadly druids get the most out of this with movement and contesting a point from a range and cyclone spam to steal flags
Second base?
Flags?
You said Kotmagu. What am i missing?
the second story out of the pit, sorry.
Flags are capture points in ‘territories’ games in bltiz liek EOTS and Arathi. You have to cap them now.
Nope but ya gotta accept the fact that most of the players are those that never did rated stuff and are now doing rated bgs like randoms. Same mentality
That is lower rankings…besides your CR isn’t what determines your match, it’s your MMR. You can climb to 1500 with a negative win ratio, CR doesn’t mean anything when it’s below your MMR.
Can ping warning on yourself.
But if im at Shrine, and the swing players are at Market, will a ping notify them?
It puts the ping on the map and in coms even if folks have chat disabled.
Ihave it macroed and attack ping macroed too I got no time for typing
I’ll take bad players and an instant queue over a 5+ minute queue vs. a gy-camping premade. It’s frustrating, but it goes both ways and is hilarious to watch on the other side, too.
I think PVP is more fun when a bit of chaos is injected, but that’s me 
a 500-1400 loss isn’t a close game. there shouldn’t be any welfare conquest for games like that.
Just stop. Its gear. Who cares?
I actually had someone say exactly that at the start of a temple match. And then others said “nah let’s just grab orbs and go mid” and the original person who said that said “okay” and guess what happened?
We grabbed orbs, went mid, and won.
Just because someone calls out a strat doesn’t mean the rest of the team has agreed to it. This is why communication is important so you’re all on the same page.
