BGbs are a lonely grind

2 weeks ago on muh lock was 1770ish and today 1350ish.

So many losses and when I do finally win I get 20 ratings if im :grinning:lucky

EDIT
ANd just now finally wona BGB and got 0 rating… nada not 1 rating increase.

Makes me wanna swap to pve out of desperation.

I find you very attractive.

Let’s not be dramatic

I won my first two games then quit after waiting 30+ minute queues multiple times. But I figure after winning both games… it’s probably downhill from there. So, I’m fine with it.

For me, if I were to get back into Blitz, it would have to be because the gameplay can be fun at times, and because I’m not considering the rating/MMR issues. If someone wants the most control over their own rating, 2s and 3s are still there. But if battlegrounds are the targeted content, let it be because they are fun sometimes. While an individual can surely be making above average positive influences in a teams success, well, you’ve seen what behaviors others display in your games. You can’t take full credit for any wins, but you also can’t take full credit for any losses, try not to worry about the rating too much.

I’m on a 6 game winning streak :pray: only 2k-2.4 MMR… But yeah they are rare. Makes me scared to play again for the same reason, has to be an L coming soon :rofl:

Locks can be rough in the lower brackets. Pretty punishing with all the melee. :frowning:

Blitz can be a real grind to start off. If you can string a few wins together it can really boost you up quickly. Anything you find that you’re struggling with specifically? What spec are you playing?

I second this. Much easier to carry (or screw up) a Solo Shuffle than a Blitz. A lot more rng involved with battlegrounds.

Thats MMR showbiz

If M+ players lost their M+ rating for a failed key M+ would be in a very sorry state. But for pvp it is business as usual.

Pretty sure they get zero for failing keys in mythic plus. Id be like losing in a plus 1 if you were 1300 u shouldnt expect any points if you were that low

Pvpers understand getting 0 rating gained if we lose a pvp instanced match. The point is, some of the mythic plus community would be screaming in tears on the forums if they were losing M+ score every time they failed to time a key. Having previously earned rating on the line is appropriate imo for rated pvp, but gaining 0 rating for a win is part of a garbage system, it can and should be changed.

I still just recently got finished wrapping my head around the fact this game has ranked PVE lol. Like seriously though they should lose points for wipes since we lost points for losing PVP.

They would freak out if they had to battle their rating going up and down.
