PVP is so dead, more and more healers realized healing SS is pure torture.

Pres is super duper fun
A small ratio change in dps to healers can make queue times arbitrarily long
Give healing a try! Or do 3s

I hopped on hpriest and played it to 2k in full greens but the trade off for spam qn isn’t worth it .
The constant frustration of getting lobbies where people don’t push their buttons just wreaks havoc on your mental in-game health

I tried healing for a few days just to see what it was like and i get it. healing shuffle is not worth anyones time. the rewards are trash. its taxing to your mental health. it can get toxic if you go 0-6 or if youre the “dog of the lobb” as venruki has said. yeah its not worth healing shuffle honestly i do love shuffle but if it were to crash and burn in fiery wreck i wouldnt care but you know whats even worse? LFG. that place is a cess pool of toxicity

Come to cata qs are instant lol
Ever since BG Blitz became a thing i haven’t even thought about playing SS anymore as a healer main lol.
gimme a quick rundown pres guide and ill make one and start queueing it this weekdn
please dont listen to this man. maybe at starting mmr in there or something but if you think retail is dead, cata is about 3 times worse. Blizz straight up removed the xrealm pvp LFG tab after 2 years outta nowhere and after weeks said it was an intentional decision but no further reasoning why. what does that tell you. imagine if they straight up removed the PvP tab in retail LFG currently.

Just gotta Q 3s. Instant Qs!
you def dont play cata i can tell. im at 1950 mmr on cata doing 2s ret war at 1800 and im getting instant ques.
its not LMAO
I think every healer besides for Disc/Holy Priest and to a lesser extent Resto Druid needs targeted buffs.
(Resto Shaman, Holy Paladin, Mistweaver Monk, Peeservation Evoker)
Maybe not exactly just throughput buffs, but they could use some help feeling as good as Priest and Druid.
I’m not a fan of nerfing healers unless it’s absolutely necessary, because it’s already hard enough to find them.
this is low mmr
yes it is, last season cata 3s, with only bracket with rewards, 12 people got r1… and only like 39 people got glad. All % based, on retail 39 people right now are in r1 range alone and that number always grows to the 100s at the end of season LMFAO. it is literally dead and the numbers are staring you in the face.
Even Minpokje and others have been tweeting/making forum posts to blizz devs begging for changes to increase participation. idk what else to say man. ur legit smoking crack cocaines.

It’s time for you, yes you to play healer in solo shuffle. Be the change you want to see. Or see how healing solo shuffle is as fun as putting your nuts in a vice.

It won’t change anything. Healing shuffle is inherently miserable being S tier doesn’t change that. Healers need to be able to end games themselves somehow.
I’ve been gearing a bunch of characters and just got my gnome priest to a decent i-level with bloody token gear and a few honor items, and also the crafted jewelry. Working on conquest stuff next of course. It’s nice that both healer specs use the same stats basically and they are both viable on Priest, even though it’s dominating the healer classes right now, which does suck.
Search pres pvp guide on YouTube there’s 5+ guides by top dragons that are all super good
Healers not being balanced is why. If you’re not a priest healer there’s no point to queue for solo shuffle.

Low mmr? Ladder says there is about 900 people above 1900 and nearly 4000 around 1400-1500.
This is cata not free rating retail and im getting instant ques.
What does people getting r1 have to do with the general pvp population? Just cause 12 people that has no job and grind the game all day and is high enough in the bracket where ques are literally dead doesnt mean the games dead. Higher scale mmr in cata has instant ques 1900+
Noone cares about people on twitter
Everyone knows this
so ur just gonna ignore how r1 and glad in cata are based on the % of the population of the ladder, 12 people getting r1 and 39 people getting glad feel free to do the napkin math on what the numbers are lookin like for the total participation
u cant be serious rn bro 2s is already inflated in cata more than retail lmao since cata is filled with gooners who only do 2s all day for 0 reward
Because number of slots scales directly off the amount of people playing.
