What in the actual steaming pile is this mode… Healers have to rotate between neanderthal DPS for 6 consecutive games and there is nothing in our power to help sway the game as the debuff rises. Then you bring in this dragon healer who’s immune to CC and can fly around, TF. Healers in shuffle should get rewarded for just being there and having to deal with you zug zug dps.
Fire whoever came up with this fairyland class aka lot lizards
Nerf Demon Hunters, they can literally solo an army.
Bring back arena rating required gear so that the MMR isn’t useless, and it’ll keep all the trash at the bottom where it belongs.
Let dragon slayers, slay dragons, and let PVP be PVP.
UPDATE: 3/22/2024 @ 10:28 am CST: I unsub’d and shall return when the expansion drops once again.
Healers don’t get rewarded in shuffle. DPS over here sobbing on keyboards just to press q and waste another hour of their time just to lose rating. /afk out.
At this point, shuffle just needs to removed. It’s so unhealthy for the game to the max.
Shuffle just promotes terrible gameplay and ego stroking to the max as these people are just “Qing their alts”. On top of that it’s not a place to truly learn either. It’s much faster paced than ladder.
For healers, it’s the same 3-3 non sense every game. Followed by 1 bad bad DPS, then it’s wrong use of cooldowns followed by improper reaction time.
For DPS, it’s the other DPS not being on the same target just mongo at healer whatever it may be.
I wish they would just remove it from the game already and cycle players back into ladder. After season 1 DF, it’s just continued to go more and more downhill as we progress each season with “solo shuffle.”
this is probably one of the more realistic takes on the situation. the ego stroking and catering to the elitist jokes with legend titles & pennants because of solo shuffle has got to stop. they are inevitably sentencing the PvP game mode to execution & maybe that’s what they want. the community is already a laughingstock because of that. they repaint a gladiator mount for the same people every season. I mean maybe just retire the entire rated PvP system & design it to be completely unrated. who’s going to quit? 5,000 people? lol. a drop in the bucket of Blizzard’s success & can focus on their game entirely at that point.
the writing is on the wall with this last AWC twitch viewership. 24k peak viewers is hilariously low & the chat was full blown toxic. retail & moreover retail PvP is just not popular. PvE players are laughing at this community rightfully so. there are a few posters who always think they’re right because of X shuffle rating or some random multi-glad knows everything because of X 3s rating. in the grand scheme of life, folks, it’s a video game and you types ruined this community. believe it or not means nothing to me. I’ve seen it 1st hand by healing LFG since day 1 of this season (and s2, and s1, and slands seasons).
it’s not like they’ve put 6 millions dollars into the PvP game mode. some of duelist illusions are literal garbage effects that took probably 5-6 minutes. who ever designed the sets is one of the few who did an excellent job all around.
point is, and lastly, the more you cater & listen to these “best players in the world” the more you push away the millions of others and this is the result. so pat yourselves on the back.
oh, and also, if you happen to move the rated modes to unrated permanently it would single handedly dismantle PvP RMT outside of boosting m+ keys for gold or w/e.
I lasted 2 rounds before leaving a shuffle.
Until they remove the ungodly amount of CC in this game, I will not be touching pvp again with a 10 foot pole.
Having to sit bear half the game, dying in a 2 second cheap shot from 60% hp bc rogue is busted, mage having 75 ways to get away from melee, warriors being unable to be slowed, what a great game.
Ill stick to my keys.
Edit: that cheap shot I was in bear with skin up, and flopped.
Actually hilarious how anyone thinks this is a good game mode. PvE has been great though.
also, why do I hear every pres evoker main complaining how bad it is then?
I didn’t take what they said as “pres is good,” although it has been good. Just frustrating to play if you’re a potato. I took what was said as aimed towards health of the game as opposed to spec power.
preservation evoker is the single best healer introduction they’ve released into a live build. it’s superior in so many ways. it’s the one healer that was given literally everything. ranged kick with a longer lockout, mobility skills, walls, CC while moving. should I keep going?
I didn’t check pvp because I don’t care but I just think you’re wrong. as if it matters, these forums are as dead as PvP right now anyways.
I’m just stating what I watched venruki and cdew say at start of season.
I have not cared about pvp, nor really done it until today since very early on in the season.
Game mode is dead to me. I’m wrong lol, I’ll admit it.
Yall get hostile for zero reason man
if you think that’s hostile you should saw absterge stream last night being screamed at by a clueless boomkin. feel free to check his VOD for pure pleasure. I just want to make sure the healers who know what’s up are helping those who don’t. no harm no foul.
