you’re not that guy and you die within 30 seconds. waiting 20 minutes just to see a DK in the lobby feels like such a waste.

Yeah but while we wait in queue fantasizing about how we will destroy the next lobby as we pretend to grip blind the target dummy there’s a part of us that believes “what if we are that guy” and it’s that hope that carries us through.

You all should treat Shuffles for what they are: a minigame.
Get angry when you have to play against MM/Ret in 3v3 and see how OP they are.

PvP is a minigame within wow itself. But as of now shuffle is the main event of the minigame that is pvp. I dont necessarily like that either, but it is what it is. Participation is leaps and bounds beyond what organized 3s is. Pretty much the only people queueing 3v3 right now are the same club of people who’ve been queueing them for 20 years and just do it out of habit.
I think organised 3v3 with friends is the most fun game mode. But it’s definitely become the sweatiest since solo q has got the scene. I really wish they made a solo/flex q that combined all the players into the same pool.
I don’t think that would work out like you or I would want. I think it would be cool that because you could flex 1-3 person queue you would make friends in it to continue to queue with. But that benefit would quickly become the mandatory push condition. Everyone beyond X rating would be organized 3s and you would have to hold queue because you can’t get beyond X rating without 2 more to queue with organized and in voice.
The benefit of community would be nice, but the convenience of a solo-able bracket would disappear quickly as anything above X rating became a sweaty organized group queue. I don’t even queue solo, i think it’s awful so that kind of change would exclusively benefit me, but I don’t think it would work out the way those of you that do queue shuffle would want.
3s is my main game because I get to play with other people and the combat has more depth
You are one person though. Not the entire player base
I’m sure by this being an mmo there’s other people that are playing to play with others
People are attributing solo shuffles popularity to being the preferred bracket when it’s really the easiest bracket
There have been several seasons now where I’m 2400 in shuffle in the first day or 2 of the season, I’m nowhere close to being that guy for 3s. And if you’re someone that can’t get 2400 but can in shuffle why play 3s? I’ve seen the average wow player LFG doesn’t work for them because they’re toxic and fail the social check so they can q shuffle by themselves and be a miserable team mate and accidentally get rewards that were out of reach for their skill level.
It’s not shocking at all it has more rounds played and I’m not sure why people are willfully missing the reason for it

I disagree. I think shuffle is the preferred bracket because of its low barrier to entry, not just because it’s easiest to get rating.
A large percentage of the player base is older, and the type of gamer they are has changed significantly. And though WoW may have originated as an MMO, people who primarily PVP these days don’t care about that aspect of the game anymore. The whole gaming ecosystem for that matter has changed as we know it.
Many of the PVPers are at a point in their lives where they have other responsibilities and obligations - full time jobs, family, other social outlets and hobbies/interests. There are so many other things in today’s online world that competes for their attention. They don’t have the time or level of commitment needed to network, find teammates of compatible specs, and coordinate daily or weekly times to play together. Nor do they want to, as its more of a chore than most of the player base is willing to commit to a single video game.
Even if the ratings and rewards were standardized across brackets, I’d argue that shuffle would still be the most popular because most PVPers just want to log in and press queue on their own free time. Not commit the time that traditional MMO characteristics demand. Also, the variance in comps and lobbies(even if you’re disadvantaged on paper) is a lot more refreshing to play with, as opposed to going up against a handful of meta comps every game.
It must be frustrating not having even the most basic social skills to queue up in 3v3 with voice.
They have no choice but to disparage organized 3v3 and glorify the minigame called Solo Queue.
