I figured that it was you mind controlling me all the time . :joy:

What happened to that game?.. I had to bail because the baby woke up from her afternoon nap. The one good Korrak game I was in the whole of this week and could not even see the end of it. Kids ruin everything :cry:

The part when Ivus entered the Horde cave was just pure epic…I thought the game was over at that point .

I’ve done 120 of these this year, with a 31% win rate. Some of them were truly epic, but many more were just, what’s wrong with these people???

Me too! I also did everything in my power to ruin your guys’ Lok summon, I aggroed the Primalist and killed her but the other 3 shaman put down the stone anyway before we killed them. I think the only paladin that was escorting them must have thought the ritual failed as no one went back to the stone.

After you killed our tree (what is it with Horde and killing trees?), we got pushed all the way back to Snowfall again before we got our second Champion Commandos out. Commandos pushed everybody back into Frostwolf and this time people supported them (the first time they just went off and did their own thing) so we got to RH. The game ended after 90 minutes, but it looked at the start you guys had a really good offensive.

(I noticed Zeala was there too, and of course, AFK’d out way before you did…)

Ya that’s when I had to AfK out… I was at IBGY hoping to keep it from being overrun and the Commandos were almost on it . So the game didn’t last long after I left I guess. The alliance DPS was strong… Your hunters were just too much :man_facepalming:t4::man_facepalming:t4:

Who is that ?

I’ve been having a ton of fun in these. Original AV >>>>>>>> any version of AV that came after (especially the garbage 1.12 version in Classic). It’s a long shot to consider them keeping it as a permanent epic BG, or at least make it into a brawl. Alas, it seems like it will always be tied to the anniversary event.

Nope! You were the key to the turtle, and one you left they also fell.

That guy that used to post around here about hydra and stomping pugs in premades.

100% - would love endless battlegrounds (Ashran and AV) to be ‘off-week’ brawls or at the very least this to be added to the brawl rotation. It would keep me subbed knowing we could play for longer than 2 weeks every year.

Tarren Mill vs Southshore was originally an anniversary event, so it’s not too out there of a suggestion.

Your name sounds familiar to me, I think we’ve crossed paths in some of the games!

Too kind but not true !! :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Here’s you valiantly holding the line while being crushed under Ivus’s foot.

That is a sacrifice for the Horde.

No greater feeling, no bigger smile, than that of me knocking people off the Stormpike bridge using Dragon Charge.

Many victims this morning, I think they figured me out after getting knocked off 5+ times.

Eventually having a priest MC me sometimes.

Last year…one person told me…”as someone who has leveled 4 horde using KR, you are one annoying warrior, good job”. “I warned other players about you, but they didn’t listen.” “They were getting pissed and yelling being knocked off the bridge.”

One person made an ally toon JUST to whisper me…”just wanted to say you really gave us a run for our money in that last AV, holy crap. You were awesome.”

Having KR return this year is a blessing, even though I’m not using my twink gear this time due to not scaling down / up.

Shadowmourne scales to ilvl 70, but it’s not better than a 100.

Is Korrak’s not insanely laggy for anyone else? How the hell are you guys managing to play it this year, like a 2sec delay on everything.

sounds fun. wish players under level 50 could play and not get oneshot.

It was insanely laggy to begin with for me, but try the following steps.

Esc > System > Network > Uncheck Optimize Network for Speed > Apply > Restart the game (and check to make sure it has remained turned off when you relog)

That seems to have worked, appreciate it!

You wouldn’t happen to also have a solution to Alliance being a bit slow would you?

Glad to hear you’re back on the battlefield!

I have a lot of macros I use at the start with some top pointers. I’d say people take heed of them 70% of the time, with the other 30% just having too many Korrak noobs or trolls.

Just got smashed in one … hate it when you wait for 20 minutes and 10 ppl make a bee line for snowfall.

That Horde life. Sit in a long queue and getting smashed makes it feel even worse than it is. Haha.

You are welcome to switch to Alliance and enjoy fast, sometimes instant, queues. Just run a 5 stack premade and you will smash most every BG you play, even as Alliance.
