I think the major decline in Solo Shuffle right now is just the fact that ever since the anniversary patch a lot of commonly played classes aren’t performing well.
That, and the wave of BM switchers flooded the bracket and scared people off from wanting to try to climb.
There were many issues. I didn’t list them all because I’m not writing an essay on it. I wrote a very quick summary of what happened.
I mean, we’re subbed to the game just like anyone else. I’m not sure how resources are handled, but we should get some attention because there’s still many thousands of us left.
I don’t think there’s a major decline. My queues have been the same as season 4 of DF, which is like 10-30mins. I haven’t really gotten a queue longer than that. It’s not ideal, insta queues would be nice, but I’m also realistic and understand the shortage of healers and how that’s not an easy issue to fix.
Not many balance changes, same rewards, wotlk out, less free inflation. 
It was basically more of the same.
And this is kind of what I was pointing out. More of the same issues that existed throughout the xpac. We were basically abandoned and it slowly killed arena. I guess people would have come back for the new xpac without the introduction of solo shuffle, but hard to tell.
yea that’s exactly what I said
Being able to play the game is a good thing.
Game becomes considerably less enjoyable without 900 free mmr, yeah.
That’s why Unchained was peak and Verdant was bad. 
I agree with that yea
shuffle probably wasn’t the best way to address that but it was easy and it solved the problem for most people who don’t really care so it was a win
This right here, BGs has always been a better option for a soloq.
Well, the can of worms has been opened and can’t really go back now.
BGs take too long, anybody who has ever played games with randoms knows objective game modes and random players don’t mix.
They’re like 10 minutes.
Work fine in every other game.
Because every other game the game modes are played like a glorified TDM, rather than actually the objective.
You can’t play WoW like TDM outside of Arena, the win condition will always be points/objectives.
Yeah and I don’t expect that obviously
I don’t really have any skin in the game on this but it’s really gonna come down to them opening up every reward to shuffle ; or them adding more unique rewards to premade
Rss was literally put into the game so people can complain about how bad everyone but themselves are.
They stream RSS because getting games are about as fast and sometimes faster in RSS. The other part to streaming RSS is the simple fact of 6ish games a que pop, more content for the least amount of down time.
That’s why you have several btags worth of people
Then you’re playing the wrong game, go play skyrim because this is an MMO.
I wouldn’t play call of duty and expect them to add magic and sword mechanics because I hate shooters.
You shouldn’t play a social game and expect to be able to do everything without socializing.
We care because people who like playing mmos are having their experiences ruined by people that don’t like the fundamental nature of the game style.
I’m sorry, did they remove dungeons, battlegrounds, and open world PvP?
