Doubt that Blizzard bails out the OCE realms after they already forced the devs to do a 180 on adding OCE to NA queues. OCE is going to have to wait for a more global solution, if one exists.
Time to get a jump on Tin Foil Hat Sunday: retail devs will convince the Classic team to implement a ‘solution’ that pisses off players in an effort to drive players back to retail. So look for an announcement if 9.1 doesn’t draw the projected number of players over the next couple of weeks. 
Hi Kaivax,
It’s been 2 months without an update on this. Could we please get an update on Blizzard’s plans for OCE and Arena? As it stands, OCE Arenas are dying a slow death without the population to support a healthy competitive scene.
Good. Let them die. TBC arena is cancer with arguably the worst class meta ever.
It won’t be missed
Considering phase 2 and season 2 is already up on the PTR. Can we please get an update on this situation?
Does anyone even know what the title cut offs will be on oce currently?
Any update on this?
We have this for retail and it’s terrible tbh.
Any semi high rated arena with this system is crap. Sit 3-5minute extra queu time when you queu from oceanic, only to get a NA team anyway, when you watch the people you just vsd get a 10 second queu. This might not seem like much but after 10 games ur essentially 30-50minutes behind. 1000 games later, that’s adding up.
Undo region split, or give oce their own ladder for arena titles pls.
That should have been in place from day 1 without question.
lol if no solution is made the next stop is not retail, its another game, probably new world for me. this version of TBC (the client itself) is complete trash with so many bugs and abilities not working properly across multiple classes. cba playing this garbage for much longer, especially if theres no effort to fix things
Why is it so hard to give an update, this is clearly a huge problem
Hey blizz, can u pls give an update on what the intention is for oceanic arena rewards as we are forced into OCE-only queues??
bumping this for an answer due to pvp season presumably ending soon + no communication in 2+ months
bumping as we need an update
I asked a GM and hes just like idk mabye try posting on the forums…
They don’t care about PvP. Let’s be honest they barely care about this game at all, but least of all PvP.
The communication in relation to upcoming honor changes, rep gear, H v H BGs, end of season date, ability to actually see the ladder and the OCE situation have all been downright disgusting for the subscription price we pay.
Oceanic pvp arena dead I would recommend joining na but starting over sucks. It’s not enough people on oceanic with high rating so you guys sit in long ques just to fight some low rated team and get no points
Not long and it will be time to head off to New World or FF with the new expac… 
Still waiting for an update…
I agree with this even though I’m low rated. OCE only rewards pls for OCE servers. Doesn’t make sense otherwise.
“We don’t want to permanently implement a region-wide rewards system where some of the players never play against the others. We’ll have an update on that for you in the weeks to come.” - Kaivax May 29th
It’s a week into august and we haven’t heard any update. There’ll practically be no OCE glads if we remain on the shared ladder. We need an official OCE ladder if they are going to keep servers split.
@Kaivax pls help
