AV PreMade Sniping

[Contention-benediction]

We win 100% of our matches with one advantage while horde comes to every match with many advantages.

No duh premades stomp PUGs?? Obviously, and it isn’t “one advantage,” there are numerous advantages that come from exploiting the system to force premades.

Thus why premades in WSG have been in game since day one.

Sounds like you need the deck stacked completely in your favor.

It’s interesting that Alliance were dominating AV when it first dropped with sub-7 minute wins without the premades. When the Horde tactic adjusted to counter it, you personally just couldn’t overcome it and have to exploit.

There are numerous arguments both ways as to the faction with “better” this and that; I’ve always played Ally and agreed the Ally side of AV is superior. Having pallies is something I truly miss. 5% less intel and no snare break on my mage sucks.

These little differences may make an impact in a perfectly matched vacuum - but do not make a difference in actual gameplay.

As you’ve stated, you win 100% of your matches. Why? You cheat.

On this as well, I’m not concerned with myself - PreMades don’t effect me, it’s other Alliance that you are screwing over for your own selfishness.

He’s not trolling. That’s the truly sad part.

I seriously wonder what these people are like IRL—then I remember that’s not even a relevant thought, because World of Warcraft IS THEIR LIFE.

The first two weeks I won a good deal more. As you say once the Horde adjusted the only answer for Alliance was to go with premades and now we have the mess that we do.

I remember Alliance dominating AV in my battlegroup when patch 1.12 hit in vanilla because of the zerg and the map that is really in their favor. No premades were needed, but back then seems that people were much more willing to work together than today’s so-called gamers.

There are 6 content phases. OP is trying to get “people” blacklisted by encouraging them to steal spots in AV that don’t belong to them. That’s a dangerous game he is playing.

You are a pathetic sad little person, and a symbol of everything that is wrong with the world and young people in general. /spit.

[Amelioratus-aegwynn]

you’re going to get people and their guilds blacklisted from all future content by posting this?

What are you going to do to me? Prevent me from entering BWL on my own, no cross-server, realm? Will you transfer and corpse camp me and my entire guild 24/7?

Lmao.

You are powerless.

You are nothing.

Yeah, I was getting stomped in the first week or so. With the fast queue many Horde adopted the, “let them win” mentality as well since it really was so Alliance dominated.

I played a NE Hunter throughout vanilla and basically always won AV in my PUGs.

Saw this in a comment somewhere else and tested it for a day - this method works really well:

1. Don’t randomly join AV
2. Click to join a specific AV and scroll down the list
3. Remember (or note) the number of the last (lowest in the list) AV
4. Do this (refresh the list) until a new AV pops up
5. If two new AVs pop up at the same time join the smaller number of the two

This doesn’t guarantee that you get into the same AV as a premade, but it significantly increases your chances. However, it makes sure that you don’t end up in a running turtle AV. Yesterday I succeeded on average 4/5 times."

TO THE TOP

[Kellani-bloodsail-buccaneers]

So has the publication of this technique seriously affected the ally premades or are they still stomping as usual?

[Sideous-grobbulus]

The cream of the crop always rises to the top.

Pond scum also always rises to the top.
Know what else floats to the top? Lol

[Nupe-mankrik]

This is sick. Don’t promote this.

What? This?

Somewhat easier method of PreMade Sniping from reddit user katsu2881:

Hum… I think he may have meant this:

• Learn who the leaders of the premades are. Go to Darnassus where they queue from and mark them(Look for a crown in the portrait) with symbols to help track when they enter games. They generally won’t enter games their leader doesn’t get into.
• /who macros for each leader & guild “/who GuildNameHere” I use bartender with named buttons for each member/guild I wish to snipe.
• /who macros for Darnassus “/who Darnassus” will show 50 people if a premade is queuing if it’s under 35 you can sit there and wait at the battlemaster until a crowd shows up.
• Timing is everything, if you miss their games JUST WAIT it’s much easier to snipe their games when you know for sure they are out.

But I could be mistaken

[Jentai-atiesh]

We’ll have to find out later, most normal people prolly still at work/commuting home if on east coast

[Contention-benediction]

It may help Ally PUGs long term, only time will tell.

I’ve seen two peeps thus far mention it helped them out, and in the reddit OP others say there’s around a 80% success rate.

[Robokappa-sargeras (Robokappa)]

i hope this works sustainably. I might get my alt to exalted afterall!

[anon31924514]

The puggers are welcome to play in a random pug AV. If the matchmaker puts them with us, they can kindly leave when asked and there will be no hard feelings. It is the people who intentionally snipe spots and don’t leave when asked that cause problems.

The amount of ego in this statement is appalling.

I can only hope that your premades get destroyed for such arrogance.

[Jentai-atiesh]

I think we all wish that happens.

[Rontavius-skeram]

I fully support this. AV premades are cancer and I will be sniping AV for the next 21k rep. Add rontavius to all of your silly blacklists.

YOU CAN’T ESCAPE THE PUGS!

WHO CARES, you chumps are 15 years late and you’re not even PVP’n so you have no right to say that X place belongs to Z player because you’re not PVP’rs…

At least the HORDE are fighting in AV; they have at least that much dignity…

Alliance on the other hand, what a bunch of whimpering baddies, even the top rank players are freaking garbage dude.

This, well half of us, some of them see a premade and just want to roll over.
