How is me saying dont give glad in RSS gatekeeping 3s? If anything im trying to open the gate for people to play 3s by advocating for separate rewards in the game modes lol.
Im the furthest thing from a gatekeeper, im a casual arena player since cata, i play for fun. During the pandemic i decided to sit down and learn more pvp since i had time and blizz made glad static, because of this i got glad 2x in SL, both times using LFG playing with random people. I dont think im some hotshot multi glad who should get it every season cause i got it a few times, i dont even consider myself a glad xp player cause i got my mount and peaced out.
And if it makes 0 financial sense why is blizz holding the AWC giving away hundreds of thousands of dollars to people playing a dead game mode? Sounds like a big waste of money to me, but its still how they are streaming/marketing pvp.
I donāt get why this is so hard to understand, the reason why RSS killed LFG is because getting in groups when you have no friends/bnet connections/prior XP is virtually impossible so people end up buying glad just to show off and have some account XP to show for.
Right now there are so little people in LFG, it takes HOURS to find groups for 3s and you fight AWC alts at 1600.
There is nothing you can do to convince people to use LFG or play 3s/2s again, the mount and title should be placed in Shuffle where a MAJORITY of the playerbase is at.
AWC players also complain that they get paid a McDonalds tier salary/wage for competing, the prize pool and viewerbase is garbage because itās a horrible eSport to watch. This is why a ton of AWC/R1 players sold RMT boosts in SL to supplement an income cause you canāt just be a pro player in this game and survive.
There are so little people in LFG because you can get the same rewards in RSS as rated arena/rbgs outside of glad title/mount.
The CASUAL pvp playerbase that knows that they cant get gladiator have 0 incentive to do 2s/3s/rbgs when they can get the SAME rewards for playing a LOWER SKILL REQUIRED game mode.
Thats it, its human nature, go the path of least resistance.
Blizzard created this problem by giving the same rewards in RSS, so people think they should be able to get a gladiator mount from it, but guess what, theres a reason blizz didnt put in the same rewards post 2.4 in RSS.
They need to implement separate rewards, and add a legend mount thats dif from glad, because the commitment required to get glad vs legend are different. This would incentivize people to do BOTH forms of pvp and make pvp participation better overall.
There are so few because trying to find a team is a nightmare of people lying trying to get free boosts or rage quiters.
Worse is organized threes turns into watching cc go off in such a specific way it is arguably more scripted then most pve encounters. Im not saying it doesnāt take skill but solo didnāt devastate 3s simply because its less hassle.
Lmao youāre so fried, this is what itās about.
You just want to feel and act superior in this game playing 3s and putting down people who rank high in Shuffle when itās YOUR HIGHEST RATING THIS SEASON.
Shuffle saved your rating, if you had to rely on 2s/3s you would be a Duelist hardstuck rat but RSS gave you your only elite and you wanna sit here and tell others why RSS doesnāt matter.
Face it, the numbers do NOT add up.
There are less than 5k people who queue 3s, there are over 100k+ in Shuffle.
Times changes, 3s will die and Glad will move to Shuffle.
Blizzard has ZERO ways to justify supporting a dead bracket, no one cares how āskilledā you are at a dead game.
I donāt think you remove it. Premades are just a different beast. I almost hit duelist there farming conquest for solo queue with people I met there.
All this time spent whining on forums, you could have put your own team together and done some 3s. Iām guessing people donāt play with you cause you blame your teammates anyways.
Sure, add the glad mount to RSS and make it 100 rounds won while being over 3k ratedā¦because with the ridiculous MMR inflation in RSS thatās relatively close to the equivalent 2400 in 3s. We genuinely might see some players hit 4k rated in RSS before this season ends, which is absurd.
Blizzard is also aware of how deflated the current 3v3 ladder is planning on injecting artificial mmr every week as stated in this blue post
Players that should get the gladiator mount for this season will have earned it by the time the end of the season rolls around.
Glad is actually no longer a percentage as of battle for azeroth. It is now earned by winning 50 games in 3v3 while being āeliteā (rating over 2400).
Tbf thereās a lot of people who canāt climb like that, I saw some Reddit post of a guy with 1k games who just hit 1800 haha.
For a lot of people, they just enjoy queuing and not having to sit in LFG. Thereās no shot some of these people will ever get 1k games in actual 3s due to population issues, itās just a lot easier to press queue and send it which is why I think itās so popular.
Lol, no its not about feeling or acting superior. Its a fact that RSS is a lot easier to get rating and rewards. People should not get the same rewards for less effort, thats not being superior.
And you just proved my point, gg. RSS is my highest rating cause its the easiest to push. I use shuffle for its intended purpose, solo queuing when im bored waiting on my team to log. Not as a means of actual competitive play. I got 2600 in RSS with barely any cc, not kicking anything, low coordination, sending burst NOT in a kidney, cause its a joke and requires less skill than arenas. and yet im not crying for a glad mount like you are
