How to Fix Alterac Valley (Unorthodox)

Remove the numeric identifiers from the user interface and api.

Premade AV ruins the spirit of the game, and spending the first few minutes of a game 15v40 because a premade decided to not join is an insurmountable disadvantage.

How has this not happened yet?

More unorthodox suggestions:

  • Cancelling your offered queue results in 15 deserter debuff.
  • Only offer entrance to a BG during the first 15 seconds of a minute that is a multiple of 5
  • Only allow like classes to enter a particular AV, so that warriors can no longer queue with priests

Or, I dunno, #nochanges and just play the AV hand you are dealt?

Either way it would be disappointing if nothing is done.

#nochanges

What would they do?

In Vanilla we had QQ premade AVs once xrealm was implemented we just used Ventrilo back then instead of Discord. I mean it literally lasted for multiple expansions and you would constantly see the ventrilo info spammed in trade for “QQ AV Premades, best honor per hour, guaranteed wins”.

Imagine if people spent half the time trying to play together as a team in AV that they spend on the forums complaining about AV and trying to come up with incredulous “fixes”, these pug groups wouldn’t get stomped.

Remove numeric identifiers from the User Interface and API. So when you queue in there is no way to know which specific instance you are in. Feels contradictory to the original spirit of vanilla wow to allow this.
