AV is not even close to even sorry

Nor do I think it's surprising that Alliance are more skilled on average. If you spend most of your time in battlegrounds and not in queue, you're necessarily going to be more on top of your game than if you spend half the time waiting in queue.


After a 10+ minute wait, when the queue pops I'm gonna play my fingers off. A loss after that just irritates me.
I do know that the back door left open in Dun is total bullsh!t, they closed all back ways in for Alliance to get into FW but they leave the Horde an open avenue to bypass our most important choke point, like wtf is with that?
I feel like the bridge choke point is pretty overrated. Most of the time when the Horde gets to that point there's a big fight at SPGY, eventually Alliance wipes and the Horde raid runs across the bridge while the Alliance are on a res timer. After that, the fight is focused around the bunkers, not the bridge, so it becomes mostly irrelevant.

i just won AV as ally(5th in arow). this one we turtled at IWB then turtled bridge for ez clap. only a few horde ever bypassed bridge into our base. so we do win.. sorry AV and IoC arent guaranteed free wins anymore but i prefer this AV to PVE race
My shaman has a 38% win percentage. My human priest has a 73% win.

!@#$ was broken before. It was broken for years. Somehow I don't think it's 70-30 for horde right now but even if it was they should probably leave it for a year or two to even out lol.

Nope. Alliance is still losing AV.

It is overrated especially with horde now learning to use the backdoor entrance now. You'll find it in classic as the most powerful choke point cause archers actually were dangerous.
you were never promised even win rates

it is what it is

It appears Boomjackson has made an appearance.

Remove NPC damage and watch the fights get good again... horde only win because the NPCs they have can hit anything and everything.. I've seen them shoot me inside the towers when they can't see me anymore. Horde NPCs are so close together it's beyond a joke, just look at the NPCs on alliance towers Vs Horde towers.

Ion doesnt say NA winrates. Juga pointed out in a different thread eu alliance win 53% of av and NA alliance wins 48% so if eu is equal or more popular alliance do win a majority.

Is that what he's doing? That would be a bit misleading.

Let's say the Horde wins 100% in NA and the Alliance wins 100% in EU. Would you average the two separate regions together to claim that bgs are shockingly even?

But if it is the case, then what do you expect them to do? Clearly it's not a map issue otherwise EU Alliance wouldn't be winning them.

My guess is it stems from her being a lower skilled player so she needs the advantage for pvp she does on Horde.

The irony of a twink posting this lol..

The only reason Alliance loses AV is because:
1. They think they can kill Galv before capping IBGY
2. Some still think rushing RH works
3. They don't back cap/play defense

If he didn't say US only then I am not sure how including data from all AV's would be considered misleading?
How can you foresee a loss 50mins prior?
Lot can happen in 50mins.
