TLDR: Recoloring past enchants like Tyranny, Primal Victory, Netherflame etc would be really exciting as those are some of the best enchants in the game. It does not take away prestige to recolor them, elite sets are just recolors of pve sets too. We can get some new styles of enchants in between recolors of old ones as well as you can only recolor so much.
Enchant quality has been all over the place in recent years. Shadowlands had 2 decent ones (s1, s3) the rest were bad. DF had mostly good ones but entirely dependent on what weapon you put them on (verdant crush shows up well on certain weapons, bad on others, same for primal storm), shadowflame was great, s4 enchant was okay.
But in TWW, we have gotten 2 pretty bad enchants so far. With how excited people got over shadowflame, I think people really just want these nice high quality enchants that show well on everything and have good particle effects.
Recolors of Glorious tyranny, Primal Victory, Netherflame, etc would be amazing and pretty hype, maybe even get people into pvp to go for them since its at 1950. Recoloring enchants does not take away from the prestige of the originals either, similar to how most elite pvp sets were just recolors of the raid sets (aside from 1 season in wod).

Don’t know how we went from the most praised enchant since MoP in Shadow Flame, to… three seasons of underwhelming enchants with same-y colors.
Probably for the same reason that this season’s gladiator tabard looks like a generic rep tabard.

Ya but as like a high mmr reward 
I do want rewards for higher mmr for sure but I think the lower mmr rewards should also be really cool as thats how we can get reward based people into pvp more. I’ve heard about a lot of people wanting to try out and get into pvp for the eel this season for example. So ideally the recolors would be at 1950, current enchants are just not exciting at all.
I would also take recolors of some DF enchants too like Shadowflame and Primal Storm. Image a blue shadowflame and a red primal storm, would be really cool. Lots of potential.
Also they need to start displaying the pvp enchant in the cosmetic weapon enchantment page so people know that an enchant exists in pvp. Can just label it as seasonal like they do with elite set.

Shadowflame is the only good pvp enchant in years. I use it on all my chars (mog depending) - it’s that good.
All the recent ones besides that are very low effort and boring looking. I don’t use any of them which is sad.

Yeah its really bad. This seasons enchant is actually terrible, its like a sparkler or something and doesn’t even cover the whole weapon its just on the tip of it.
The hype around Shadowflame really should have shown how much people want dense particle effects. They have really easy wins with this as we’ve had quite a few very popular enchants that they just have to recolor a few times each. They could do a recolor of Tyranny>Recolor of Shadowflame>Recolor of Tyranny for one expac, then Recolor of Primal Victory>Recolor of Tyranny>Recolor of Primal Storm for the next and keep going like this. The ones we have now are just so bad.

games fixed if they did unique elite sets and recolor tyranny enchant for 3s only
incentivize not getting free rating in shuffle

Demonic Tyranny I’d just about kill for
I swear there needs to be, like, a mid mmr 3s and even 2s incentive. 
People queue shuff or blitz (solo) for one afternoon and they’re done with an elite set day two of a seven month season.
That’s crazy.

I actually do think recoloring those enchants could be a 3s only reward 100%. I’ve thought of that before too, would be a great idea. I think it should still be from 1950 though, but only from 3s to incentivize more activity there.
Maybe shuffle/blitz gets the recolored elite set and 3s gets a unique elite set at x rating (2550? 2250? Idk, ideally a rating we don’t have a reward at yet though)
However that requires them to have the time and ability to do that, and considering it’s only been done once in the history of the game I don’t think it’ll happen lol. Especially for PvP sadly, I think if they are going spend time making unique sets for anything it’d be m+. But I’d be down for it.

would be great to see past enchants recolored for current rewards. I think DF enchants were largely ‘okay’ but depend entirely on what weapon they are used on, they look awful on some and great on others.
But there is still nothing that has surpassed Tyranny/Primal Victory in terms of looks, and it would be great to see recolors of those. Prestige is tied to the original color, recoloring should be completely fine and is what people have been asking about for a while now. I’d be completely fine with the enchants I have getting recolored too, it doesn’t take away from them since they would be visibly different, but considering the quality of recent enchants, it’d be nice to get back to the quality of old enchants like Tyranny.

Recolor enchants – sure. But make them Duelist again for healthier ladder incentive spread and a bigger sense of reward for work. I suppose having them at a higher threshold would also justify putting some creative effort into their design, making them more unique and robust as this was the original appeal and incentive making PvP enchants coveted.
ppl are here weirdly attached to these things, they constantly get posted and never gather steam, you would likely catch more fish with this idea in gen dis or the mog forum
I don’t know if they need to be duelist again or not, I don’t think that’ll happen, but I do think they could maybe be a unique 3s reward like others said above to incentivize 3s more.

Ye, need a low-mid mmr carrot for 3s
Glad is cool but top 800-2500 or w/e isn’t compelling for most players

That would probably be a great way to bring back the bracket somewhat 
But I wonder if that would actually improve its integrity. Ahem SoloQ brackets over the past 2 xpaks xD
I think so yeah, I mean it already has a couple of its own rewards anyway, but adding another one towards the lower/mid end of the bracket would be good to improve this further.
I’d personally like doing 3s again, I was super motivated in DF to try and in s3/4 I found people to play with but with the glad mount being super ugly in TWW they just didn’t care to go for it. And all 3 of us are reward centric players so if the reward sucks motivation kinda goes down too.

I am with you 100%. Rewards are probably the best and easiest way to motivate player activity in a certain season. e.g. there’s nothing in particular I’m aiming for this season, so I’m alt’ing more again and trying to improve my overall skills. I also dabbled more in ranked 3’s in DF, because I had returning and new friends who were more interested in learning those skills together. Unfortunately, it didn’t last long and none of them really continued into TWW (same story as every xpak or two), so I am back to full-time Solo Queueing (which also makes sense for my IRL schedule, but I do miss group 3’s and RBGs).
I quit arenas when I get the enchant
