"People live for 10v10" is the new "You think you do but you don't"

I believe you believe this, but I’d be surprised if it were a very accurate statement.

It might be fair to say that you enjoy winning, and you have an adverse feeling towards losing in WSG.

Go ahead and queue for as long as it takes for you to lose 10 pug vs pug games in a row (might be more than 1 weekend for this to happen) and see if you still enjoy it.

Now of course I can understand the claims that people give up because it’s too hard, and they lose hope, etc. From what I can tell, the worst experiences in WSG are when your teammates don’t try.

People have given examples of professional teams against kindergarten students, but I’d be skeptical that level 1 toons in starter gear are entering level 25 BGs, and I’d also be curious in SoD who feels comfortable queueing for BGs without having at least spent a little time working on gearing their character.

Level cap is 25. WSG is the current end-game BG, and people who want to just AFK, play as though they were AFK, and those who want to coordinate gameplay, use consumables, and win, and everything in-between, including those who just want the fastest possible games at all costs are all playing together.

This obviously affects those who opt to be auto-assigned into groups with other players. The only option to be grouped with other like-minded individuals is to form your own team. As with probably any reward bearing competition, there is no option to choose the teams or types of teams you face.

Do you really? Is this a legitimate hope that you have?
