I queue more epics then regular BGs, so maybe that’s part of the problem.
Probably. There’s a much smaller fraction of the player base who like those. Or it could be bigger but I’m willing to bet against that.
AV is a struggle unless you get multiple people shouting to play D and summon Ivus
He was up in Darkshore
Same, I just don’t find the little bgs fun or interesting. Also, they don’t seem to be very “random” and I always seem to get bgs like Seething Shore and Battle for Gilneas instead of the bgs I actually like.
Give me a giant chaotic teamfight, that’s what I like
The 40 mans used to be an almost guaranteed win for Alliance. Not anymore…
I’d queue more epics but IOC ughhh I get too many of those.
I really wish Wintergrasp, Tol Barad, and Ashran could be added to the epic queue. I also want a PVP version of Warfronts.
Confirmed
Some of the IoC games are really close and have you on the edge of your seat.
Yea idc, it’s like Strand, even a win is a loss.
Yeah, I always blacklisted Strand.
But IOC is actually an Alliance-favored map due to all the Ally-only exploits, I would imagine Alliance players would get excited when they see IOC pop. I know when I’m on my Alliance I feel relieved when the loading screen appears and it’s IOC instead of AV.
Problem is we always get people who reset the boss and cost us the game. Horde mercs perhaps? #tinfoilhat
Nah, Horde mercs don’t do that kind of stuff
Most likely Hunter pets or Ally standing on the stairs, the last few times the Horde boss reset it was a Hunter pet if I remember correctly. The last player I remember that caused a reset was some Draenei Shammy.
Like I said, even a win is a loss. Strand was like 80% horde wins, doesn’t mean I liked it on my horde.
Oh stop. If I’m chain queueing, I see the same names over and over as horde too. Especially healers.
If you play a game on Tuesday and see three of the same names on Saturday then that’s another story. I sincerely doubt that you’re experiencing that though.
That’s exactly what I’m experiencing lol
I played lots of Alliance bgs Christmas Eve (Monday) and also Christmas day (Tuesday), today (Saturday) I’ve seen 9-10 of the same names from Monday and Tuesday in epics.
It really does seem like it’s the same Alliance players getting farmed over and over in epics, unless you play with a premade you’ll probably see the same players in match after match.
This is what happens when one faction has far fewer people queuing then the other one. Every single day I have the enlistment bonus on this character. That is as objective proof as you can get.
Getting farmed? We’ve been summoning Ivus a lot lately. No premade either.
