Yeah, I just was in an 8 minute game with my horde where we didn’t even get Bal. It was a 5 min queue though so easy honor and rep for both sides, basically Dec 2019 again.

You don’t even need Discord. The ingame voice chat works very well.
Heh… it was so bad when blizzard added it I think most people immediately disabled it then forgot it exists.
Back when it was first introduced in BC, yeah, it was. It’s much much better now.
There is a Horde Classic Battleground Discord server. Not sure how to give out the link though.
It’s about time.
You guys fled AV at the first sign of trouble

This thread is priceless… so yea, most of alliance is made up of pve players, and to remind the Horde players about the first week of AV, when horde faced the top ranked and end game raiders at that time… i got exalted in four days i think it was, and i dident loose a single AV, anything horde put in our way, we just rofl stomped… it wasnt even funny
After that initial week most alliance end game raiders had got their rep, and the items then wanted, like me iwe never looked back… and this is the core problem in nilla, you have one side thats better for pve, and the other side is better for pvp…
im happy to hear Alliance have managed to team up and comunicate !
We out here farming the horde in their caves now.
Got them staying as ghosts in their cave.
They just gave up. I guess losing for 7 days was too much, imagine a full year.
The biggest hand held faction.

Horde didn’t care much about win or loss back then. I was there. We had instant queues on day 1 and I got exalted in like 3 days despite losing. I had a friend who got exalted within 24 hours. Both sides would get close to 2000 honor.
When horde queues started getting longer we started turtling and that’s when the ally AV premades came in with the queue syncing so there could be organization and rules.
AV got really bad for the alliance after the premading ended though for various reasons already discussed in this thread and others. I am happy for the alliance players that they are having better games these days even if it took some “pug stomping” to do it.
As of today, it’s everyone doing the rush drek or kek start again like Dec 2019. I did a few games on my alliance but can’t stand not getting objectives with horde getting way more honor even when those alliance win so I’m playing my horde in there and doing what I want. If I happen to get against an ally premade and get pushed back into the cave and farmed that’s ok.

Funny thing is while you guys have been complaining and crying wolf about it being “cheating” or “bannable”, the Alliance pugs have been learning how to play from the pre-mades now and have been curb stomping in AV as of late. You can’t complain when freakin’ pugs have begun to rack up win streaks, while the Horde remains complacent.

They all gave up and threw in the towel.
They’re waiting for their dad to fix it

Go Alliance!
beat that map disadvantage. Playing it hardmode!
and the horde i guess.
I’ve always said Alliance has defensive racials and class (Paladins) while Horde has more offensive racials and class (Shamans). It made more sense to me with everything than PvE vs PvP.

Don’t worry, Ziryus and company will come up with some nonsensical excuse to explain why even Alliance pugs are stomping Horde.

No nonsensical excuse … they just suck.

I see your nonsensical and raise you an ironic answer instead.
Don’t forget, these are pugs that taste lukewarm and are casuals.
Casuals mind you. The fact that those kinds of PUGs are able to learn from pre-mades and win a BG map that is against their favor, speaks that much about the zug zug faction and their reliance on having a game tweaked in their favor whenever they demand for it.
I ran 1 AV this weekend.
There was no discord.
We rode straight to Drek and killed him.
I saw a, yes 1, Horde player, and got 1 honorable kill for the BG, 1.
Mind blown.
I love it when Hordies cry. You start halfway up the map, you all zerged one faction, and yet you still find reasons to cry.
Imagine playing Horde and actually thinking you’re good. LUL
Ran AV all weekend, never once did a pre-made of any size. No discord. Just ran to Drek and killed him.
What’s the point of this thread again?

People are the exact same on both sides. Tribalism in a video game is kind of fitting and makes the game interesting (since it is an MMO RPG) but a little weird.
In addition, there are just as many alliance PVPers as horde PVPers today. AB, WSG and AV queues for horde are all <5 minutes at any given time of day.
I do get why alliance players love to hear the crying though after AV has been pretty much unplayable for them for a year.
