The only thing that was mentioned is that you will be grouped with/against players from ALL realms in your region; People have taken this statement quite literally thinking that all EU realms will be in one pool, one single pool for US servers etc and it could very well be the case. One other explanation though, by the use of “region”, could be that East coast US is one Battlegroup, West coast is seperate etc.

I have seen no confirmation, but as I understand it battlegroups were more of a technical limitation of the time. Server locations have been consolidated since then and that is why they got rid of the groups, and I don’t expect to see battlegroups in Classic.

looks like all players are in a pool 51 and up.so its not battle groups.

That ship has sailed.

Region is typically defined as to where your battle net is restricted.

i did it donesnt say there will be battle masters so you will have to go to the places and queue…lol.

I see battlemasters horde and alliance side in the cities. Less they plan to picket cities which I don’t see turning out well… With amount people on mostly at once…

my bad it did.

s’all good m’808. go out and educate the masses that horde will never suffer at the hands of the ally pettiness.

they can be children/victims all they want but in the end, blizz comes through… FOR THE HORDE

“In your region”

A lot of people are crying about playing against EU servers and such… not gonna happen.

oh 100% won’t happen at all. i’ll agree to that.

you won’t even play against people in US west lest alone europe

3 Battlegroups for the US Client:
.One for US West
.Another one for US East (including Latin america and Brazil because they use the same datacenter)
.And the third one for Oceanic realms

This would be the most appropiate way to classify the battlegroups but they haven’t confirmed anything yet, they just said “IN YOUR REGION”, seriously blizzard sucks at announcements, every time they do a bluepost it ends up creating more questions than answers.

Whenever Blizzard talks about a “region”, it usually refers to NA, EU, etc.

What is with people’s obsession with rivalries and being “known”? It’s like everyone wants to be a celebrity, be part of the cool clique, sit at the cool kid table. Maybe that is what’s driving the whole streamer derangement syndrome.

I just want to play the game.
