AV match 3 minutes in, still 8 v 40. Matches shouldn’t be allowed to start until there are a minimum of 30 on each side.
Nope. You will get what alliance keep telling us is best, a fast game. Thank you premade queues.
What a lot of players don’t realize is that since your ranks are weighted against your own realm and faction, it doesn’t matter from a ranking standpoint if premades or solo pulls are nerfed. Alliance is still competing against the same pool of people on their own faction, who are all affected by the same nerfs, so their ranking is largely unaffected.
Except that maybe, just maybe, shunting all of the non-premade Alliance into 5v40 games where they’re guaranteed to lose might be detrimental to ranking, since it demoralizes those players into potentially quitting AV altogether, shrinking the size of your honor pool.
Do you really think there are that many premades, that it is affecting every single AV match? Even the ones at 3 - 4 AM start 8 alli 40 horde.
The ratio is probably higher at odd times since so many trying to rank are doing loooooong hours. If you think blizzard changed it so alliance start games at a numbers disadvantage you might wanna log out a bit. It’s your own faction screwing you.
Earlier today, I was in a group that wiped a premade. We killed them at Drek once. They rushed him again. We killed them again, and we choked them at IWB. They chose to /afk out and accept the Deserter debuff.
What followed was an absolute disaster for those who were brought in to take their place. A plethora of Alliance players, most below R8, joined a match with dead lieutenants and exhausted sources of bonus honor. They could do little but wait for their inevitable loss.
You see, even when they’re losing, premade games are a detriment to non-premades, to a selfish degree.
