I do wish I kept screen shots if the games I’ve played now, just to show the difference from standard AV to AV weekend. But I never think of it after the 1-2 hour que times+match times.
Just go grab that addon.
Show us you’re at a 60% win rate on AV weekend.
Do atleast 10 games, I’d want a larger sample size but I know you have 2 hour ques.
Honorable kills and objective tagging is a way to track participation.
Strange how alliance is the majority on non participation for both honor kills and objective capping.
I mean if they were stick on defense the entire time they should have a lot of honorable kills. And yet…
Again, what add-on? I’ll use the one you recommend so your more likely to accept the data.
Also just double checking, this is AV weekend this weekend or am I off a week? I work weekends but I’ll try to get 10 games in. Please give me the addon name so I can start.
I don’t know what it’s called but I’m sure you can Google it
And I completely understand why alliance would AFK in this battleground. To me if people are AFK on one faction more it’s because there’s an imbalance. Can you blame them after losing for nine months straight?
I mean, the que times to game duration has a big effect on participation as well.
Fast que times reduce the motivation to try as the game drags out because of efficiency for honor/rep farming. The hordes que times make them try harder for longer because even if the game lasts 1.5 hours that’s still shorter than the typical 2+ hour que time. While alliance having under 5 minute ques results in them being more willing to give up on their current AV, afk out and que for the next. If their goal is to win. If their goal is rep farm they leave after the last rep turn ins are done to go to the next. Or intentionally sabotage their team to cause a faster loss than afking out would cause. (15 min deserter debuff)
I’ve been /clap ed at by an alliance before when capping ASGY and he didn’t interrupt me because (I’m guessing on this) he wanted the game to end faster. Instead of trying to stop me he cheered at me (alliance still had SPGY, this was before the backdoors got fixed)
I get that people bot. It happens on both sides.
A que time is irrelevant if you’re sleeping.
I don’t get how you can’t see that losing for 7+ months with no hope because of CLEAR IMBALANCES in the map has an effect on how willing people are at still trying.
What’s funny is if this scenario was reversed horde would of done the exact same thing. You keep trying to seperate us when in reality we are all the same.
Video evidence, screenshots of win/loss records clearly show the disparity of the map and who it favors.
Take the Thrall pajamas off and see things through unbiased eyes. I play both factions, it’s clear what the AV map is.
Horde have afkers and leeches. Horde have bad players like the Alliance have.
And regardless, your argument gets shattered anyway because If after the first week of AV, the good alliance players who were already playing it kept getting stomped the immediate weeks afterward. Then clearly the reason Alliance lost couldnt have been due to a bad player issue.
Most of the “good” alliance players left AV the day premades got broken.
so far 1-3 w/o babysitting, only counting games w/ gate opening
I’m just glad I have another game to play in-between 15m timers
1-4, with zero leadership the alliance are lost
i just want to play a competitive game and not herd cats all game
dead game
first game was a horde win, found a crap load of leachers on the alliance and some afkers
‘https://twitter.com/search?q=alfavhunter921&f=live’
quite a few of the leachers kills was me as I specifically ran into them and took screenshots.
I also took the time to show you an alternate route past IWB ‘choke’ as you can bypass it from above… (Ironically this is where a lot of leachers hang out until the battle moves away from IWB, as shown by the eagle eye screenshot with no leachers there any more)
even used eyes of the beast to expose an afk in your cave because I saw him with track humanoid, you can also see from the picture that alliance that did get south went into the goldmine to take that over any priority, according to the one horde player that went there it had 4 alliance farming mobs in it (not max level), but I cannot confirm that as I didn’t get down there
edit: cant get another game in tonight guild is doing AQ 20 and im already tired from work+1.25hr que time for the 1st av
ill try to get another in tomorrow
However based on what I found that was about 15 people afk, leaching, or leveling…out of 40. Hard to win a 25/40 vs 40 (39, the screenshots show one horde was afk with 0 participation). Must be a map problem…
1-6
close games but
what’s the definition of insanity?
You obviously weren’t trying hard enough. Were you afk? Were you really trying? Did you bring all your consumables and eng tinkers? Invisibility pots? Did you pick the right spot to die so you didn’t get sent to AS or the cave? What about the rams? Were they doing their part?
AV is such an amazing bg, one of the best IMO and it sucks that Blizzard gave us this version for classic. Biggest disappointment of classic for me.
Give it a break. Trying to suggest that horde players are afking and leeching at remotely the same frequency as alliance is dishonest as hell.
no ,no, no clearly the horde have 15ish afk/leaching/leveling in AV every game as well… lol
I have screenshots this time to prove it XD
even showed them how to bypass the ‘impossible to bypass’ choke of IWB with the screenshots XD
its clearly the maps fault though
Oof you’re a clicker.
Big yikes.
Also I see a lot of horde with low hks.
Oof and a solid grey parser.
Yikes.
Horde are clearly better rofl.
I click for some, hotkey for others, not everything is hotkeyed but the most common ones used are
Not much point in hotkeying tracking or profession stuff
I use 1-0 mouse buttons (8) and cnt 1-0. That’s 28 keybinds. But hay just because I don’t keybinds everything makes me a clicker…
Also I disabled some of my add-ons to make cleaner screenshots so…
I always suspected you to be that backpedaling, keyboard turning clicker.
Seems I was right.
I’m starting to see why you have the 300 arena wins achievement but no 1500 achievement. It’s all starting to make sense.
