Well if I read correctly (my bad English not my first language) - he’s talking past tense, in the old system which was far more competitive, where caps weren’t fixed at 500k and HPH actually mattered.
In this current system, you just have to get 500k, it’s not a race, it’s not a competition, it’s not about efficiency, it’s about effort. If I am ranking in this system, I am 100% half afk AV while working.
Like jeez dude have you even played this game or are you really bored lol oh ur prob in av I get it
They didn’t change wsg hph so you are contradicting yourself. Either you’re right and AV is better hph or lazarak is right and wsg is better hph and since he has told me he is a real pvper and is in the real pvp discord (huge flex) I am leaning towards he’s right. Which begs the question: why aren’t the real pvpers queueing wsg?
-Any form of argument where the conclusion is assumed in one of the premises. Many people use the phrase “begging the question” incorrectly when they use it to mean, “prompts one to ask the question”. That is NOT the correct usage. Begging the question is a form of circular reasoning.-
Thats not begging the question
WSG HPH isn’t just determined by blizzard and how much honor is awarded per objective. It’s more so the player base wouldn’t you say?
I have said repeatedly under this current ranking system with this current era ranker player base, AV is better honor per effort, which is what matters currently. It’s not about how much honor you can get, it’s about how can I get to 500k with the least amount of effort possible, and that is AV.
For the average person, sure. That doesn’t explain why real pvpers aren’t queueing wsg. These are the elite players not solo queue scrubs. Did you know lazarak for example is in a discord full of real pvpers?
Did you know that repeating this isnt going anywhere for you - and you are repeating it because you are tilted by me?
Look, I love all my haters. Even you! You guys keep the content fresh.
You plucked this from a previous thread where I said finding groups just takes joining a pvp discord. Thats generally what theyre for - but theres no need for that atm in this gen
Please refer to my response like 349405 posts above which I think answers all your questions.
Vicious circle of players not queueing due to:
a) quality of games
b) other versions of the game (ie. twinks)
c) ranking - AV better in this current ranking system
d) no characters on era and cba levelling
e) no games, no pop, ppl get bored log off, perpetuates the ripple effect of people wanting to spend their time doing something else etc.
Please blizzard just bring back PTR ERA but no dust plz ty (see you all there!)
In regards to the old system, there was a specific pattern that followed literally every server and rank ever.
From the beginning - PvP system launches:
Honor launches/bgs. PvE ppl spam AV to get exalted (pvp people take these qs)
-AV bloats the q as dominant bg
PvE ppl finish rep, AV q bloat slows down, gets smaller. As this happens, wsg and av pop more from “weave que”
This trend #2 continues and slowly snowballs to 3 decent BG pops
In old system, wsg and ab get enough ques to start seeing full teams or strong partials. (this is when the strongest teams start producing 15-25k hph - more on weekends)
Due to point number 4, AV qs diminish due to AVs baseline low hph compared to what people winning the other BG can produce
Meta is now wsg/ab, av dies until weekends due to low hph
Anyways, thats why “real pvpers” would care for the meta. However, in this system, BG meta cannot be moved by people producing big hph. So you must instead wait for the current batch of rankers to finish in order for those BGs to pop again
I figured this patterned information will help answer your question
Please see the other reasons as to why they aren’t queuing, which perpetuates why they don’t queue or some people queue others don’t making for mismatched games! ROCKET SCIENCE.
Yes. I work for the Department of Statistics of World of Freaking Warcraft. ??? you think I run a census on all players and what they’re playing? Do YOU have data? I’m talking about a mini survey from the players I know. Super statistically sound.
And I just told you that HPH doesn’t matter in this ranking system. Only 500k with the least amount of effort. It’s like I’m talking to a tree.
Some of them never played? Some of them stopped playing for the reasons above? and dude lets be honest the amount of ppl posting on here that don’t even play is probably pretty damn high.
You literally answered your own question - ppl don’t queue cuz x,y,z and then basically causes exodus. Maybe honestly it’s a question of premades wanting to farm pugs, to motivate people to queue vs them as a stack, which is what made me and my friends queue up when horde was running a 10-man and we were coordinating to play vs them for fun.

I have no idea what you’re trying to say here. The real pvpers from the real pvp discord could queue multiple games at once and the quality of game would be very high because they’re real pvpers.

Pretty easy. Look at how many people are queueing at twink levels.
Playing less is less effort. You are contradicting yourself again.

Of normal players - I already admitted that. Normal players don’t want to play wsg because it’s garbage hph when you’re not in a premade. I’m not interested in the reasons and doings of normal players. I want to know why the REAL pvpers aren’t queueing wsg.
