Premades in Random BGs

If you are going to run a group of 5 or more players into Random BGs you should have to wait for an opposing team with 5 or more players.

Premades vs Premades Only.

I totally agree…premade randoms are just farmfests and kill the buzz of joining pvp. been a problem for years.

Hahahaha no. There’s absolutely no reason to increase wait times in bgs. The wait time is already atrocious. Additionally not every pre-made is 2400 glads stomping the bg. A lot of times it’s guildies just grouping together to honor farm and make it less awful.

Premades already have a high chance of being pitted against another premade, if there’s one available.

But it’s a group-based mmo, go get some friends

Comps matter, Gear matters.
A quality matchmaking system would only benefit everyone in randoms, at all levels.
Sub 60 Healer cap and Premade vs Premade matchmaking does not exist.
Watching (watched) brackets (smaller population yes) just self implode/destruct is never fun, not a good look at all.

After all we want more competition and less lopsided games right? Right?!

In what world do you live in where the wait time for random, non-epic bgs is atrocious?

Most 5 mans do actually face other ones. The issue is, not all 5mans are created equally. Most alliance 5mans are garbo.

I just got back from a one/two year break from Wow and I came across this thread…

I just wanted to let you know that this topic was being discussed back then too…

Just a random piece of information for ya…

The system also attempted to match premades with premades then.

This is entirely false and idk why people say this. I never seen a premade fight another premade. A group from the same realm doesn’t automatically mean it’s a premade.

Pre-made groups don’t really bother me unless it’s full 2100+ geared players and I’m on an alt xD. However I did pitch an idea that would lessen the burden all us pvp players face.

Hope blizzard see that post :slight_smile:

Nobody asked you if you’ve seen a premade fight another premade rofl. You’re just as blind as the people who think people from the same realm are premades if you think they don’t fight each other.

I run in premades, duo queue to five mans. I’ve gotten to know people in horde communities and talk to these people so you know exactly who the horde groups are. Sometimes you secretly sneak into their discord and spy on their groups to see who they’re queuing with

Theres rarely a night that goes by without seeing a group I don’t recognize that always queue together

Sniping or dodging, goes hand in hand.
Even better when you see that one player zone in first (the scout) , and then leave when they see another solid premade on the other team. Relog and stay in queue.

People dodging premades is lame. They’re the most fun games

A good indicator of games starting with less players on one side too, only the scout takes the deserter.

It’s been said for years that the game actively tries to pit premades against premades. I don’t see it.

It’s probably not always premades.

3-5 people syncing and defending a healer will roll through a bunch of randoms attacking the first melee in front of them.
