Coming up in February 2024 it will have been ~6 years since new casual BG content was added to the game
Technically the ārecycledā maps like Wintergrasp and Ashran that got added in BFA donāt really count since those maps already existed beforehand
New means new, and thereās been no new BG map since 2018ā¦ at this point itās getting kinda concerning boys

PVEārs get new content every patch, They get the best looking gear, most of which (especially of late) is better than pvp gear in pvp, PvEāers lose their mind if they have to pvp to pve, but weāre all but expected to PVE every time something remotely strong comes out.
Our balance updates are 2nd fiddle
Our content updates are broken fiddle.
weāre not even the arena players, so we get even less love
Weāre playing a minigame in a minigame. Blizzard could not care less we exist.

Yup, and āratedā PvPāers get multiple arena maps per expansion + plenty of dev attention (if any glitches or imbalances pop up) - but basically 0 dev attention goes towards casual PvP. Sadge 
The sad part is, we dont have to be the casual content, we sure as hell werenāt when the game first came out. BGs used to be where the sweatlords lived.
Blizzard tried turning this game into and esport and everyone fell for it. Its so far gone people genuinely believe the game cant be balanced around battlegrounds, despite people absolutely loving classic pvp 
Blizzard doesnt care to fix it, and the players are too used to normal to care about anything other than Arenas or PVE
Tired but happy. Lots of sick calls at work so I had to work harder then normal lol.
Tbf the last bg added was the azerite one and it is pretty crappy, we only need wsg tp and arathi basin.
Yāall know weāre getting a new solo-q rated BG in 3 weeks right?

Meh, somehow I donāt really care since itās just more rated stuff (ā¦already gets plenty of content/dev attention)
A new BG or even just some (any??) tidbit of ābreadcrumbā news for the casual PvP side of things would get me more hyped/excited tbh
Well the BG in Blitz play differently, new powers and mount speed. It will look the same but taste different.

Before BGB becomes its own rated version it will be perfect for the random bg itch since it will limit how many people can premade.
Thereās no reason this new mode canāt be for the ācasualā pvp side of things. Iām sure many will abandon regular randoms.
you mean the brawl? that isnt going to be rated until the season after next at minimum, and then even then, its just going to be WSG EOTS and AB.
Thats not new content, thats a bow on the turd we have.

Also ToK and DWG. Everything except Seething Shores.
Youāre right the rated version will come later, but this will act like it and provide conquest. In PTR there was a rating attached to it.
Itās a pretty bow.

Thats all fine an dandy, But giving us conquest, for doing what weāre doing now, is not new content, which is what we weāre complaining about.
I believe there will be rating for the brawl phase but it wonāt count for anything per se.
So is it a brand new bg? or just a ranked solo que for bgs?
honestly I enjoy playing with friends but sometimes a nice solo only bg would be welcome, I am kinda hoping this keep blitz as a non rated and rated version in the future.

It is rated as in rating will be tied to it. The better you get the stronger your opponents will be.
Late season will blow with multi glad smurfing the lower brackets.
There are several articles that explain how it will work.
