I wonder if it’s one of the many “my teammate was AFK for 2 rounds then left the arena so I lost a ton of points without the chance to earn them back, how can I report them for being a booster” threads.

I made it back after one loss, but the second round all the addons were everywhere, my bars and macros were messed up. So it was free 2 wins for the enemies I guess, still did okay. Then I got put in a match with a brew monk, then the next time I got prot pally heals I deserved it

[Kennie-malganis]

@Arfbishop-moon-guard

then the next time I got prot pally heals

Oh, no. It gets worse. I recently decided to go back and tweak a bunch of UI stuff and I’m worried I’ll kamikaze the next lobby I’m in.

[Serahc-illidan]

Is cdew the guy who couldn’t cope with someone havig the same character name as him and being more popular?

He might not be… there was some job about an oven setting related to that person.

Nvm it was another guy.

I have keybinds that are all over the place that my friends troll me about. But i have the muscle memory so im scared to change them

[Kennie-malganis]

Yeah, I had to go back and change some binds at one point because I was actually concerned they were hurting my hands, and the discomfort went away shortly after. This was like a decade ago and my hands would probably be in shambles if I didn’t.

I really should’ve done a complete UI purge with DF, though.

[Zoozuu-tichondrius]

I have a 12 button MMO mouse and use it for 1 - 12 and Shift 1 - 12 while also using the regular number keys.

I know there’s probably a way better usage for those mouse buttons, but i’m so used to pressing it for regular keys lol.

@Kennie-malganis

Is there any way to avoid being shifted into H*man form as Worgen when zoning into arena?

You can put running wild on your bars and press that and it will avoid the human to worgen animation if you want to.

[Kennie-malganis]

Oh, does zoning in like that prevent it? I had just been tapping it as soon as I got in.

[Fyshles-frostmourne]

nah nothing prevents it unforch.

[Kennie-malganis]

Tragic. Thanks anyways.

2400 in Shuffle is just as hard if not harder than 2400 in any other bracket of PvP

this is inherently flawed statement. people who have never been 1800 before are now 2400 because they qd solo shuffle first week and abused mmr/cr and hasnt been reset. the bracket is actually free rating for specific classes that can queue with anything normally for rating.

2400 in ss is entry level pvp for any other bracket. id say 2400 ss is like 2050 in 3s and like 1900 in 2s

[Seratox-illidan]

@Dxssxe-illidan

and hasnt been reset

Yeah I was legitimately surprised peoples MMR/CR didnt get reset.

I was also surprised about Legend titles not getting reset abusing the off spec glitch

@Dxssxe-illidan

UHDK was the most broken thing for an entire patch cycle, they dominated ladder and yet so far this season you are barely clinging onto Duelist in a bracket you call “free” and you want me to take you seriously?

Your only 2400 was during the most meme/RMT season of SL and you want to talk about how unskilled or skilled a bracket it.

Get to a respectable MMR before you try and make these statements.

[Giznator-malganis]

in dont care what some mountain dew said, if you are fighting Glads at 1400, thats the same as playing 2400.

I’m ngl this statement hits hard.

[Dxssxe-illidan]

I’m a pver.
I don’t pvp for anything other than duelist or tabard.

I’ve been higher rating than you consistently every season since legion. I have 8 glad Tabards. You have maybe 1 from a welfare pvp bracket.

Just remember that in a game mode I don’t play even remotely consistently I can get rating higher than you in any bracket for fun because I like transmog

[Zoozuu-tichondrius]

@Dxssxe-illidan

@Dxssxe-illidan

And this why your opinion doesn’t matter. No one cares about your glads or tabards, this is 2023 and you spent a majority of your time on a dying MMO.

Shuffle is where a majority of the players are at, if you can’t 2400+ in Shuffle then don’t speak on the bracket being easy or not.

[Dxssxe-illidan]

@Zoozuu-tichondrius

can’t 2400+ in Shuffle then don’t speak on the bracket being easy or not

I got 2100 in 2 days of queuing it in pve gear. 2400 is just more of the same thing 100-0 worst healer in the match and you’re guaranteed 3 wins off the bat.

If the bracket was hard then why does everyone disregard the rating from it?

Should I just get 2.4 in pve gear to prove the brackets a joke?

[Dankbuds-tichondrius]

Cdew is hella washed

I got 2100 on my alt in less than 5 queues and it took you 2 days to do that, you clearly can’t climb to 2400 or you would be there already.

If it’s so easy then do it, I want results, not your opinion on a topic you can’t contribute to.

@Dxssxe-illidan

If the bracket was hard then why does everyone disregard the rating from it?

The people that disregard it fall in two camps:

1. People who can’t reach high MMR in Shuffle (people like you for example) despite reaching it before, they’re most likely washed up has been’s that are a relic of the ancient times where 3s mattered and glads meant something.

Now they just cling onto a dead bracket in hopes that someone will validate them.

2. Streamers/AWC players who rely on these brackets being alive for their income so they have to act like a dead bracket is somehow better.

A functioning adult should recognize the success of Shuffle and support it, not try to minimize it to prop up a dead bracket.
