BGs that Play like a Tale In Three Parts

PVP Battlegrounds

I just got out of the funniest Battle for Gilneas I think I’ve ever been in. It was the kind of BG you get every once in a while where it’s the exact right blend of comedy, tragedy, toxicity, and triumph.

So, before the gate even opens, I’m playing with a talent I haven’t really used in earnest before (Loaded Dice), I’m playing with a btag I’ve never queued with before, and I recognize someone from my server (someone that I’ve faced and beat while mercing, who whispered me after).

Also we have three Rogues. One of which is me. Hi, I’m the problem.

Opening is fine. We get LH and hold it, I go Mines, one of the other Rogues gets snagged by a Mage and 1v1s them on the hill, we get Mines.

We hold it for a bit, then we wipe, lose Mines, and go WW. We get WW, LH falls. So begins the tragedy. I sit WW with a dragon healer, the two of us, beating back the same Druid and Rogue trying to get WW about three times. We still don’t have LH back, so I check the scoreboard.

Despite the other two Rogues (who are both playing Sub) fighting for LH back this whole time, I (as Outlaw) am up 4 KBs, and I’m out-damaging both combined. I figure it’s a gear disparity, but I still point it out.

“I’m playing a d-tier spec and I’m out-damaging both of you what is up?”

One claims they’ve got two assaults (fair enough, they got WW with us earlier), the other says they can’t do damage while controlling everything (you’re playing a Rogue what-).

The Druid and Rogue haven’t come back for another attempt yet, so I turn to my dragon and say:

“You. We go mines. Get in.” And whip out the chopper.

We storm up to Mines, leaving a Priest to sit WW, find the enemy Druid and Rogue combo apparently just milling about up there, kill them, kill everyone else, and take Mines.

Then the cavalry arrives, apparently having decided to give up on LH. We hold Mines for 57 seconds, I say “IT’S SO EASY” in chat, an undergeared Hunter slips by and defends Mines at the last second. I kill him.

“Hold up. One sec. Got it.”

Get Mines back. Win. Easiest Jugger-Not of my life, and I’m still up on both of the Rogues.

I commend the random dragon healer for being a bro, say gg and good night to my btag friend, and run to the forums before beb.

My only regret is that I recorded none of it, and therefore, I cannot prove that any of this happened. But I swear it did.

So, any funny BG stories?

Any deepwind that starts off as a solid, uncontested stomp of mid and then everyone pushes quarry and ruins while losing farm and shrine and the person who stays at mid is afk and gets capped on and suddenly it’s 4 bases to 1 and people get upset

I think the only tales of Bgs I have are from ages past that I can hardly remember, I used to have a ton of fun even doing leveling BGs. I remember being a noob and only caring about how much dmg was on the board so I enjoyed playing fire mage cause big dmg and aoe. For WHATEVER reason half of my old screenshots are just BG end game scoreboards. Kid me really liked those I guess.

Sorry I just can’t believe any druid smells better than a Draenei, so I think you might be the big stink.

I have a sad bg story.

Person M:

Person X:

The rest of the story is too sad for me to write.

If you really must know the ending, you’ll have to ask members of SPM or bg forum readers from long ago.

:cry:
