Just add a spec ban system to rated PvP already

You wanna queue a rated arena bracket?

As the group leader be allowed to choose 1 spec from the entire game that your team does not wish to face so you don’t get matched into that spec

Why would this be a good thing?

Because it would provide literal statistic feedback on what is being banned the most which will lead to that spec being tuned properly

They do it all the time in moba games

This will also pretty much fully negate completely broken FOTM reroll specs

If you’re abusing broken specs the least you can get is sit longer queues until it gets tuned properly

And all players of that 1 spec don’t get games anymore?

And they can’t get into groups because no one will take them?

How about a Server ban instead

Nah i’d be fine if they just removed tanks from solo

Ofc ppl will take them

They would be fotm OP specs, much easier wins

but longer queues

then u will get a miracle

ppl will come forward admitting their specs are broken and asking for nerfs so they can play

im talking about PREMADE rated brackets

not solo shuffle

nobody takes that seriously, and if they do, then nobody takes that person seriously

Not if everyone bans that spec. They’d get zero games.

Last season, everyone would have banned Ret. Rets would have gotten zero games.

Because there aren’t already enough people asking for nerfs for OP specs? Blizzard needs to see Rets asking for Ret nerfs before they make any changes?

Everyone would just pick the one spec that counters them. Would make arena pointless.

nop

would make arena balanced

why pay monthly to get countered over and over and over by fotm meta crap

also some classes have no counters

some have many

i wish triple dps and double dps only was a thing.

people willc ry and say some specs r just more favored for that type of stuff…

they act like every single class is perfectly balanced for 2s, 3s shuffles anr bgs. lol just lol. cant make this up

Had a sub rogue vanish and sit in stealth for over a minute 2x in the same game the other day so they’d insta be out of there then arcane is prob next.

Too restrictive on specs and playstyles or win conditions.

some spec perma banned?

booohooo then be forced to balance it

simple problems require simple solutions

the cringe from this game needs to be purged

The monkey paw curls and rated pvp ceases to exist.

It wouldn’t work like that. A spec could be completely balanced and still hard counter another spec. It’s what makes wow arena interesting. It’s why you play with a spec that helps cover your deficiencies.
