I’m torn between wanting to be supportive of any PvP aspect of WoW, and being put off that the first blue post we’ve seen in these forums in forever is to advertise.

The only way to boycott anything you are paying for is to stop paying for it.

I enjoy WoW PvP, but WoW “Esports” will always remain a joke compared to pretty much every other competitive game thanks to unbalanced RPG gearing systems Ion seems to think work well in PvP.

Templates sucked because people want some customisation of their secondaries.

BFA hidden scaling sucked because it was wonky and invisible.

SL PvP gear sucks because the game is only “balanced” in full 226 gear, gatekeeping out players who can’t make it to 2100-2400, or can’t afford to pay someone to carry them there.

I wish they were making people play off the tournament realm, or with their current in game characters so we could see how much gear really matters…

GL competitors, but no one outside of the small WoW PvP community will ever care with how little is done to give us “plebs” an even playing field in the normal game.

I don’t want to compete in a tournament, I just don’t want to have severely diminished chances of winning because of gear.

i got carried to 1970cr in rgbs actually. Still combust is a non issue. It can be purged, you can magic reflect, interrupt after combust, hex, los, stun, magic zone, etc etc etc.

If you look at the ladder mages arent that many, specially compared to paladins. They are clearly not over performing right now. So yeah, he needs to git gud or maybe play a better comp if mages are a problem for him.
