Maybe I’ve played the game too long, but it’s just not fun. Not only when I’m losing, just in general. Though I did lose to double fury warrior earlier around 1.8k and it’s honestly insane we’re at the point where double warrior can beat a comp with a healer.
Anyway not raging and I’m sure people will say whatever bye, but do people still actually ENJOY pvp? Probably taking a break to try pve I guess, though I’ve always played pvp only. Just realized I don’t even play this game for fun anymore and it feels like a chore.

Current state right now is another “if you’re not playing the meta, don’t play at all.” Just like SL.

It’s not the best of news to hear that after we’ve gotten past the BORROWED POWER era that certain class/specs are found to be ridiculous. I have said it before that Blizz should have a much easier time BALANCING them without taking borrowed power into account.
PvP in principle is supposed to be more enjoyable than Leg-BFA-SL, what I am calling the Borrowed Power era. I had a lot of fun making my bones with this hunter and a certain other “furry” hunter in those three expansions. I’m not shy to admit I’ve gotten salty because Blizz just couldn’t get balance quite right. But any effort that would cost a raid tier wouldn’t be acceptable.
That’s what really kills PvP right there. When players leave, there’s no PvP. No true PvPer should ever be like Curly Bill. True PvPers want a world of war, a world AT war, and not “Desert World of Peacecraft” or “Hello Kitty Island Adventure”.
PvP has never been worse than it was the past three expansions. Legion RUINED it all, and Blizzard did nothing but doubling down on rented powers. Melee over ranged, and hybrids over pures caused a terrible power balance. WM was a critical failure. Sharding was completely screwed. Boosting was rampant. Not to mention that the Alliance LOST to the Horde as the latter utterly defeated them in every outcome of WPvP notwithstanding the gamebreaking actions of Ruin Gaming and Cryptids League, even though the Alliance got some of the coolest allied races. I had to BENCH a dark iron dwarf and their Gucci mole machine. Esoterically it was the worst time to PvP.
And yet I still miss the Hunt, even now.
There’s a Trading Post coming that would revive ganking in the cities, but I’m looking more towards the future(the past) in Classic Cata. I have nothing to prove anymore, but if you want to start Godfathering the opposite faction of your choice that’s a good way to keep going in PvP.

No, double fury can’t beat a comp with a healer.
Double fury can beat YOU with a healer.
PvP has been pretty decent so far. There are moments where i completely hate the game but honestly the good outweighs the bad.
Pvp is better, and I think with some tuning df can be pretty great. But right now df still somewhat feels like shadowlands to a degree from the few games iv done.
Mostly in that some stuff still feels kinda one tappey, and theres some fairly out of line stuff right now.
Pvp is still in beta phases. Let’s be real lol

nothing burns people out faster than having the same class design since legion (or bfa for some specs).
The game is just not as fun as last month of shadowland, it is funny that prepatch is 100% better than now…
Honestly, this! I was enjoying myself in the prepatch. I have no idea how it got so bad in 10 levels. I get that some people like this crazy, fast paced meta but it’s just going to push more and more people out of arenas.
I still enjoy it, but definitely a lot less then I had in the past. So much going on in arena now. Couple that with multiple classes being able to kill you in 2 seconds… it’s just too much at times. I just don’t understand how the near instant kills are a thing. They go through so much trouble in redesigning this stuff and still allow for massive CD stacking.
Beyond that, honestly just bored with all the immunities or semi-immunities. Like being out in the world. Rogue opens on me. No trinket. Sit full stun. Don’t die. Come out of stun and rogue has evasion/cloak up. No peeling. Turtle. Come out of turtle. Blind. Vanish. Sap. No stun DR. Rogue opens again. Dead.
It’s such a boring formula.

there’s never been a better time for an adhd fortnight kid to watch a venruki tier list, pick his favorite s tier, and slobber on the keyboard thats fasho
With that attitude, sure. But if you’re wi!lling to try things, you’d be surprised that you can make it work/enjoy yourself. So what if you’re a couple points lower than some mongoloids riding the meta ‘d’. Too often people carry this negative mentality into their real lives as well. Just think a little less and savor the flavor.
I don’t mind it. I think Blizzard is slowly more or less doing a good job at tuning.
Solo shuffle isn’t that much fun to heal, but it’s a back pocket, last resort option (like I called months ago and people told me I was crazy) for rating, and a really good option for vault honor (I really didn’t like having to rely on RBGs for that).
But all in all I’m enjoying myself.
how do u know me so well?
