Who cares what he wants, hes just a sad guy posting on an alt cause he cant climb in arena either lol Solo shuffle is THE WAY NOW
Will there be anything done about healer mmr? Considering there are hardly any healers and twice as many dps what are the plans for this?
Care to make an update regarding plans for pvp in season 4 or the new expansion? A video would be good.

Cheapstabber is right imo. I would play RSS more, but I’m just not going to waste my time sitting in queues over 15-20min long. I want to actually play the game. As much as everyone complains about LFG, it actually does work. Yea it has its faults, and improvements could be made, but it worked great for years when the population was higher.
If you don’t have regular partners, lfg is your way to meet people. If you don’t have any rating, you need to be willing to play with crap players (even if you’re super good) until you build your rating up. You can’t expect people to want to play with you when they’re currently 2200, and you’re 1200, but you got 2700 3 years ago.
As you build your rating, your access to better and better players will happen naturally. Yes, you will have people that quit after 1 loss along the way. Yes, you will have some real nasty people occasionally, Tes, you will play with some real stinkers sometimes…but you will also have some pretty good win streaks here and there…that’s your opportunity to get their realID and play with them regularly. It’s really that simple.
People just can’t be bothered to do the above though and want people their experience or better even though they only have 768 current rating. And so they sit in LFG all day…and say it’s terrible.
they just need to remove rss from the game… add solo queue option to 2s and 3s where you can que, solo, duo, trio.

Starting on a fresh character it took me 4 wins to be 2k mmr in 2v2, starting on a fresh character in solo shuffle would take days/weeks just to hit 2k, that’s wild.
yet smoking u was easy so is it really 2k
u couldnt’ pay me a 9 to 5 to heal shuffle. and u say these things as dps but like nothing is fun about healing shuffle. even winning isn’t fun

Wouldn’t the premade teams just farm the solo queuers for rating?
Wasn’t that one of the reasons why there was a mass exodus of average and lower rated players to RSS in the first place? They were tired of being ladder fodder?
Someone accused me of trolling and told all the other players to report me because I can’t heal DPS teammates who are running behind pillars to 1v2/3, LOSing me, outranging me, etc.
think they were more tired of the LFG tool/community and having to rely on others to queue up.
In retrospect, was this a one-time injection of 40 rating and we returned to 4 rating per week inflation afterward?
The whole pvp reward structure needs to be demolished and remade. Engagement should be rewarded, not becoming the sweatiest sweatlord with the most foghorn addons and illegal macros.

This already doesn’t happen, yolo teams constantly beat premade teams and people have literally gotten glad (i have done it in more active seasons) with yolo only games.
And premade teams constantly beat yolo teams.
If you mix solo queuers with premade teams, I think that premade teams would have a noticeably easier time climbing the ladder.
Unlike yolo LFG teams, solo queuers wouldn’t be able to choose their comp. Solo queuers are unlikely to get on voice chat together during the prep period. They also wouldn’t improve their teamwork because their teammates keep changing every game.
WOW NO WAY, teams beat each other!?
So what? There would be different ladders for duo/solo/premade.
Says who? You’re doing a lot of assuming.
They’d just have the ability level of the non-premade teams be higher to compensate as other games do.
What part about that is unclear my fellow arena enjoyer
while i agree with you there they really need to redo the entire PvP specificaly arena they didn’t touch it since well since arena get released it’s a good time they should put more love on that
the reward feel unrewarding, the current system is to much old and i don’t know but the mount should be given once you reach 2000 and in 2400 they could add another mount for example i did wait for 30 minute to get just one healer to queue some arena they should give more incencitive to queue as healer like mount reward, new transmog and etc
PvP is fun but it’s feel like they abandoned it the poll tier set is the prime example we are at mercy of the pve player literaly

Sadly they only care about metrics, games like LoL or Gacha look up to the main playerbase to invest in “skin types” and other stuff, WoW figured the casual lfr pver is their main playerbase and only really tune stuff to be achievable and fast for that set of players. Be it Mythic Raiding or M+, most hardcore stuff is barely touched or cared by blizz. As long the main wheel is spinning and money is entering, they are satisfied.
Pvp rewards should be entirely redone, much like the bgs and the whole scene. Don’t think they care to put any type of cash/devs into it when the % of players that actually care or do something about pvp is never growing in relevant numbers and always shrinking mid season.
This problem is even worse now. 5 weeks into TWW season 1 and not a single player is 2400 in solo shuffle. Apply emergency inflation please it’s causing massive problems.

Thanks for necroing this thread from a year ago and giving us hope. I hope you are forced to walk a mile on lego pieces for this.
