how is this allowed? two games in a row i’ve seen a premade of three 2193 players (two hunters and a healer) against a bunch of rank 0-20 players? wtf is going on?

Do you mean high honor level somehow joined the 0-29 bracket in Random bg?

yep. not just high honor level, but a high honor level premade, since it was two games in a row. my poor team got spawn camped from the start during both games with aimed shots instagibbing half of them the moment they left, since a lot of them had like 7m hp. this should not be possible, horrible experience for newer players.

If all 3 players were exactly 2193, it was the same bnet accouht

And players wonder why participation is nosediving. Its because of situations like this; premades steamrolling Random PUGs. Imagine being a newbie and coming in and experiencing this. I promise you; they’re not thinking - let me get better, they’ll just quit.

This just creates a bad experience for players who are trying to learn PvP, causing them to quit it and never come back, and then we wonder why PvP isn’t as popular.

I don’t understand how it happens.
When I queue with a low honor level, they get put in the high bracket for epic bg. Doesn’t matter who has lead.
I can try regular randoms…

Your sig was yummy!
I ran into this while leveling a new bnet a couple weeks ago. Everyone was 0-29 honor level except there were 2 marksman hunters and a healer wbove 1500 honor level. They are manipulating the system somehow to premade the low honor guys.

Honor level doesnt equate to skill. Anyone can grind bgs all day every day and gain honor level.

True, but anyone who has to play against noobs to win deserves the ridicule. Theres a reason smurfing is punished in other games

Ask your streamer friends who grief lobbies every day. Turns out blizzard doesn’t care, who knew?

I agree. That sounds like some shenanigans. Evelesonia, if you can remember their names, bundle it up with what happened and when it happened and send it in to: hacks@blizzard.com.
It’s best to right click report and then do a bundle with names and all as Blizz’ll have the back end info as well to start an investigation. But, if all ya got is the names, general times, etc, send it in.
Do that if ya see it again as well.
It’s a mystery to me how any one can have fun doing that.
How do you even obtain an honor level that high??
I know which two hunters you are talking about, yeah they do this quite often and are also always with a pocket healer. Wish I could call them out but can’t because of TOS.

Takes about 340 days of winning battlegrounds. 340days inside a battleground.
or 16,119 Battlegrounds

if it was low level, then they are using the party sync feature. if it was a sync queue premade in the sub 30 honor level bracket, then idk, blizzard probably broke something. given the lag some servers have been dealing with lately, its probably a mix of both.
Yeah.
He should just go roll that Honor Level 2,193 player… problem solved.
I’m sure he can handle Jack 1v1.
