PVP is suppose to be competitive, no one will want to PVP with 300ms because its clearly
disadvantageous. Thanks for ruining PVP for everyone in OCE. Will be unsubbing all my toons.

they’ve literally killed the game for pvpers on oce with this change.
200+ ms with no batching isnt competitive and definitely doesnt improve the quality of our games.
give us our own battlegroup, we would rather the longer ques.

There is no issue that needed solving.
Americans do not queue at the same times as OCE.
This change does nothing but ruin OCE PvP.
Blizzard, revert this change.

Except you’re forgetting this is a no-win situation for anyone involved.
Say for example you’re playing from OCE and your team faces an NA team… Where the the game resolve?
Lets say its equally crap for both teams LOL, because really it is; all this does is buff warlocks and NERF Healers, Mages, Druids (DPS) and melee into the ground.
Legit after this idiotic change the only spec’s that can play to a reasonable degree are DoT classes because its the only thing that can maintain pressure because of the nature of its design. Hell I didn’t even think about it till now but this gutters Elemental even more than before.
NOTHING about this change is good for anyone involved, its 100% pure trash decision making in action.

All because “lEtZ MuRJ thE bAtTlegpZ GUyZ”
How about you come to play on 300ms ping and then tell us it’s better? This is a joke.

It’s nowhere near 1 hour queues for horde. Alliance have instant queues (which is fine as they’re less represented) and horde have between 20-30 min queues.
I’d rather wait another 5-10 minutes than exercise futility in trying to get solid hits on ranged.

As a player from the non cringe faction and a country without third world internet, this change greatly improves my gameplay experience. Thank you Blizz

Hands down worst decision made by Blizzard since the release of Classic. Give me the damn queue any day, that way after I wait 30 minutes for it to pop, I actually have fun, as opposed to waiting 5 minutes and hating what follows too. Revert this stupidity!

Can’t even hit things on my rogue on 250 ms. How is this playable lmfao.
I literally have to run 10 yards AHEAD of a character just to melee them if they’re running…
tried a few as ele and its hilarious watching a frost mage weave into cast range, cast and leave before LB cancels cast.Or strafing locks being unhittable at range.

Yup, I have not even played ele yet and know 100% this SCREWS Ele hard.
Hilariously ignorant response from Blizzard, yet also totally predictable. L.M.F.A.O. goodbye aussies and kiwis 
It is currently 8am local time and this thread was made at 2am and this is the response you are getting… in the middle of the night…
When a majority of the payerbase sees this, rest assured they will be an overwhelmingly disgruntled majority of 1000’s of players.
What are you even trying to achieve?
Nobody sane wants this.

Kaivax, this is unacceptable. Seriously it’s just one thing after another. You fulfil your prophecy of Oceanic servers needing to be merged to get Q’s because you will have killed our PVP scene. What is the point in us even having our own servers? I played back when we didn’t and it was terrible. It has been so nice to be able to play with decent ping, please don’t implement this permanently. Another out of touch decision that I’m sure comes down to money… Hell I wouldn’t be surprised if you just stopped hosting servers for us and this is the start of phasing them out to save on your bottom line. I know that’s unhinged but I don’t understand continuous, consecutive decisions that negatively impact the player experience, when all we want to do is go back to a time when you hadn’t already ruined it.
