Daily reminder that defending in Wintergrasp is obscenely overpowered and needs to be nerfed

PVP Battlegrounds
62

Add this to daily reminder:

  1. AV alliance bridge is a game swinging advantage to alliance.
  2. AV straight tower rush with no conflict is a straight win to alliance.
  3. Why did they remove my choice of blocking 2 pvp battlegrounds i detest like seething shore & temple of kotamugu
  4. Who is the programmer that developed temple of kotamugu. Skill does not dictate a win and no ingame mechanics can swing the contest. Quite simply the team with the highest ilevel wins.
  5. Why cant isle of conquest mid, hangar & docks do equal damage to a wall versus the constant imbalance of damage output throughout the years
  6. Dun baldor north tower 1st step has been broken for 15 years. Perhaps fix it?

Trash BG and needs removed. Bring back Strand of the Ancients to replace it.

I keep seeing this and I keep having to remind horde players: AV is Horde biased. I just can’t help you if you refuse to press the advantages you’re afforded. If Horde defended IBGY / IBT / TP they’d win every single AV unless the Alliance dramatically outplayed them.

Took a peek at the WoW reddit just now, stumbled upon this quality meme - has over 1k ‘likes’ by the way:

who would have guessed that defending a fortress is easier than taking it? It was the same QQkachoo teams that cried about jumping down from icecrown and bombing the doors for a quick, but easily countered win.

For every 10 times the horde attacks we have to defend once, the damn blizzard is alliance

71

It’s the same on Alliance. One of my alts has over a dozen WG and has yet to see anything but offense.

Ion is Horde and have never even maxed an Alliance toon btw.

72

you’re lying

Bump in solidarity

74

I just witnessed a wg attacking game where at least 10 people left BEFORE the match even started.

You know a bg is bad when this happens.

75

Yikes :laughing:

10 is on the high end, but yeah
 I frequently see up to 5-7 players leave before the match even starts.

That people are not even willing to wait to see how the first teamfight goes, and would rather dip out before the match even starts, tells you just how much people dislike this bg :joy:

There’s obviously a decent amount of players that immediately /afk out as soon as the loading screen finishes and they see that it’s offense.

76

I’m one of them, usually.

77

This is every bg on the Alliance side :stuck_out_tongue:

78

Bump, just had 10-15 players afk out before battle even started, either fix or allow me to remove it from my que.

The way to win wintergrasp while being on offense is quit simple . The issue is having 40 people commit to focusing a gate with demolishers and vehicule . That should be #1 thing to do for all the 40 players . Does it happen often ? Nope people should run around like chicken without having a main focus.

Now this is a thread that is worth bumping, have another one :+1:


here’s a like too, realized I forgot to do it before.

I stayed 5 minutes today in my first WG assualt, as roughly 60 people loaded in and /afk`d out before the first clash at SR. I explained to the remaining players why its happening. Hoping to spread the info and tell them to complain on the forums. The absolute insanity that transpired was confusing. They acted like they didnt know you can type /afk to exit a BG
 They said this BG cant fit 100 people for 60 people to go hide afk. Really? There was this many ppl who dont know you can /afk? Perhaps they can shutoff the UI notification so they dont see 60 joins and afks spammed?
