Its true. People try pvp and its just whack a mole now rather than a back and forth battle that goes on for a bit. Its just boom you are dead in 5 seconds or boom you kill someone else in 5 seconds. It sucks.

Its about 5x as fast as BFA which is the last time I played. If you disagree with that then I guess I am wrong. I thought BFA was a little too fast also.

it’s much faster than bfa
i’m concerned about this though, bfa had likely the slowest pacing we’ve probably ever seen and it was likely the most frustrating version of the game because of it
locks/mages just standing in one place absorbing damage (even with 8 players on them in other content for scale) 9 minute games decided ONLY on mana and dampening and never on player input or skill
i’d q 3 hours some nights and only play like 10 games it was crazy

I’m sitting here wondering and giving it actual thought
How many specs can kill an afk player in 5s. 100-0, without commiting some of their best CDs

Have you considered raiding?

without dragonrage, even dev idk if they’ll kill you in 4 gcds
Well I’m sold!
The game is frustratingly slow due to too much health and 1:30min trinket on healers, revert both

that’s an interesting question. i imagine it’s mostly the pure dps classes with a row of procs if they get those.
like a fully loaded frost mage can probably do someone in 5s without veins or ray. But a sub rogue isn’t spamming gloomblade evis to do anything.
I imagine hunters can do it, destro, idk.

Try asking someone whos never played arena to try it. Thats why theres no influx of players into the ecosystem.

Yeah BfA was definitely too fast.

i fear this is never getting reverted my bros.
anyway pvp is not dying because there’s no back and forth, pvp is dying because for every 1000 people that stop pvping, 1 new person enters it.
its impossible to get into, its impossible to draw new viewers in because theres a billion things going on, and wow in general is not really a mainstream esport game.
everyone has like 45%+ vers, 1.7+mil hp (unless youre a lock then you have 2mil). the only time you should get killed in 5 seconds is if you get gimped in the opener where no one presses their buttons.
other then that games are lasting until healers oom almost every game in my experience
This is not required to be interesting to people.
I assume he’s just talking about a handful of unbalanced Random Bgs that are landslide wins for 1 team. Not the best for basing Pvp as a whole off of, but I can see where he is coming from if this is the truth.
Okay, so it’s not just me. I just came back and I thought i was crazy.
Yeah, the TTK has gotten way too low. Its not fun.
WoW arenas were always about resource management and punishing compounding mistakes.
It was never a fast paced zoomer game and trying to find a balance between that and what it was before will just anger everyone.
Trying to please everyone pleases no one. You had a formula that worked for those who played, and the people who didn’t play the game hated.
They fundamentally dislike 50 keybind click-to-target combat You won’t win them over. You stand to lose people to them quitting the game over this.
It must suck to be so wrong

Yeah big numbers just aren’t enticing to me, TWW some people have 10 mill health and I hated that in what, legion?
