Just played against 5 premades in a row

By some miracle, the first 3 random bg matches were the exact same premade team. Horde randoms in bad gear obviously stand no chance against tryhard alliance in coms, and so a GY campfest was born. They dragged the game out and never capped the WSG flags only to farm GY some more and I was just glad when it ended…except…I just qued into it again, and again.

The last two, where unique premades as opposed to the same exact one, but still premades nonetheless. Regardless, those were also catastrophic losses due to an uncoordinated team, bad comp, less healers, and worse gear.

My complaint and question is, what the actual heck is happening right now where I see 5 back to back to back premades in a row and all the sudden the forums are full of posts about premades?

This kind of experience should NEVER happen to players just trying to do some random pvp (which is supposed to be casual) for fun.

Are there any plans to fix this?

Premades are pretty essential for the alliance right now. No, there are no plans to fix a mechanic that has always been there.

…stand no chance against any team with gear. Coms not needed unless you have some insider info telling you they were.

Yeah but there’s a HUGE difference between a loss where your team had some form of counterplay, and getting graveyard camped for 10 minutes straight.

That difference is essentially smaller than the advantage that a geared premade in coms makes. It makes the entire experience as un-fun as possible, literally removing your ability to play the game by force.

And with all the emote spamming I received, I’m really doubting the premades do it to actually try to get some bg wins in. In fact, it’s obvious the ones I queued into were doing it just to troll, and that’s really not something I should have to continually experience. Especially the same exact team back to back 3 times.

It wasn’t hard to see they were in coms. Maledicts and cooldowns were all coordinated at the exact same time on single targets, as well as swaps too fast to be just an observant player not in voice.

Stand tall, friend, and allow Alliance their crutch. It is known that 5 of them equal about 1 of us, so you must excuse their need for this practice.

Players complain about the problems they see. When there are multiple open threads about the same topics, those are issues that probably need to be addressed.

Do you see any threads complaining about BM monks?

If you can’t handle solo queuing, find some people to queue with.

Right.

Find some people to queue with if you can’t handle solo queuing.

Or they like to mingle with other players.

God forbid people seek out lasting social groups in a game like this.

Isn’t that what she just said?
They obvi got sick of losing to those swine smoochin pig headed orcs.

Yes it is.

I guess they realized grouping up might indicate you can’t handle solo queuing.

P much.
Sometimes it’s fun to be the hammer instead of always being the nail.

I solo queue plenty. But sometimes if a btag bud quick joins I’m not gonna tell them no.

Turn off emotes when BG’ing.

Just a quick question - did you check that they were allies and not mercs? I can believe good horde would merc for shorter queues.

Bro premading is actually addicting and turns you into a furry if you aren’t careful.

If it’s a premade graveyard camping, don’t feed them HKs, don’t Rez, ghost walk across the map.
