Curious about RBGers with fishy win rates

sure, and statistically the theoretical #1 team should have a 99% win rate. i dont think anyone would really debate that. 300 RBG wins in 24 hours is what is fishy. that sounds like bots.

that’s basically a season’s worth of games in a single day.

Hey, if the blood dk is 2k rated and the guardian druid is too, I’d say it’s because they’re both doing something, right? I don’t see it as a handicap at all. It only is if you’re some sort of meta slave.

What would happen is upon seeing the enemy DK prematch a Rogue or Druid would hang back near base and nuke the DK every time they tried to get close.

The team would have to escort the DK the entire way while the stealthed Guardian just gets a free cap during teamfight, and the DK would only have a shot to grab the flag once the enemy had peeled to support its FC.

It’s solved. A 2400 warrior could switch to Prot end of season and just troll. RBG isn’t balanced outside of the meta, that’s the issue with solo queue. The more variables you introduce in PvP the more homogeneous the solution becomes.

It’s funny that you believe people are so predictable in a chaotic environment. The reality is that the other team would need to have both the rogue and the druid who is specced to take down that death knight, which is already not that likely. And would they work together? I don’t know.

I know the queues would be short, and if you get an awful team, queue up again, and you’ll get into a match 5 minutes later.

I feel like they could do so much better than the rated battlegrounds as they are right now. What would you change about them? You give me the impression that you think they’re perfect the way they are.

300 RBG wins in 24 hours is what is fishy. that sounds like bots.

Where are people seeing this? I can only barely believe that’s legit if it’s KR lol.

I’ve won rbgs matches in under 4-5 minutes. I can imagine a hero team just spam queing and rekting these yolos. it goes by pretty fast. I can do over 80 2s matches if i wanted to in under 2 hours. the point im trying to make it…this meta is fast.

so have I, i’ve also won epics in 4-5 minutes, SAS even speedruns WG-Atk, everyone’s least favorite bg.

the problem is that 300 games in 24 hours maths out to one win every 4.8 minutes, meaning you need to not just win one game in 4-5 minutes. you need to win 300 in a row, without taking any breaks, and getting instant pops for every game, even at the tiny bracket size that is the top of the ladder.

after 50 wins in a row you would be high enough on the ladder that you shouldn’t be able to steamroll teams, even if you are R1.

I wished rbgs worked like that…but MMR is wack asf in rbgs…lmao win 2 and you’re 1900 mmr against 2200 teams :rofl: :rofl: :metal: rbgs is a dead bracket sadly

if you win 50 in a row, even if you start at 0 CR you should be at like 2400. your MMR would also be skyrocketing at that point. you as an individual can shoot high if you have 0 cr and mmr then join a high mmr team, thats how carry sellers work.

i might be wrong on this, but i think the teams MMR is just an average of the MMR of each player on the team. so if you are the only 0 on a team of 2100s, you will be at ~1890 mmr until you pick up some wins and level the average back out to 2100.

I’m looking over the ladders and cannot find anyone with 300 games in 24 hours.

I’m seeing the usual suspects Dingle/Imitlul/etc. spamming easy wins vs end-of-season casuals but nothing approaches what OP described in any region.

Also note that since X-faction good teams’ WR have gone up.

Ill ask around, im curious on how this works.

They’re just that much better, although they do eat a lot of much, much worse teams because nobody plays rbgs.

Or… It never happened

If you use a website like arenamate or xunamate, the tracker will tell you the games happened on one date, when infact they didn’t.

Those sites only record a specific % of players on the ladder. So when they become tracable, it takes all the info from the Blizzard API and enters it together.


No, there’s nothing fishy going on.

I would not say that they do not care but I am sure with the streamlined staff they have been using for quite some time something like that will be lower on the priority list as they prepare for Dragonflight.

I am certain they are concerned about quite a few things they wish to look in to but business models do have their own constraints.
