In this meta, I wouldn’t be playing anyone without no experience in past seasons. If they were 1600-1800 all of a sudden gets elite, I still wouldn’t take them. It’s not the same thing imo.

Will do, Blizzard shouldn’t cater to a literal dead game mode. Shuffle is the future.

That’s my point, it’s literally unobtainable to anyone that hasn’t already been playing for years. It’s dumb they gate the mount behind that.

It’s different from shadowlands to this expansion. I don’t even get invited to groups. It’s awkward sometimes.

This is a good idea. I remember seeing someone say SS feels better since when you’re winning you see your rating shoot up faster instead of the smaller drip feed of dopamine the current 2’s/3’s gives.

Yes.

Also, I think they could make it easier to add and join people you were just in a SS with. I know it’s possible to whisper people and add their bnet after asking but any kind of decrease in even THAT friction could help to bring people into 2’s/3’a.

1550 and +50 wins for glad mount 3s.

Final offer

You might have more success with various discord groups that have active PvP players. :dracthyr_heart:

Is having friends who play WoW a skill?

Not in DF theres no content drought.

But plenty did it in SL. Pika your mate was one of them.

Normal players never had access to the Glad mount, R1 gatekeepers defend it well because each player that earns a glad mount, thats 800+usd the Glad Mafia loses out on RMT selling.

How tf do you know prices? :thinking:

Pure fiction. It was non competitive for over half of the battlegroups, and came from all 3 brackets. Normal players got gladiator by transferring servers, playing 5s, cheesing 2s, and even just playing meta comps in 3s. And this is when it was a % title. When battlegroups got removed the number of people on mounts only increased. not even talking about 2400 with change.

Anyone who talks about “normal players” and gatekeeping post BFA is just making excuses to justify their inability to push.

Yes, sales and boosts exist. They’re not preventing anyone from pushing above 2400 lol.

The current deflation of the ladder is the only wall you’re looking at rn. And yeah that’s one hell of a wall.

it’s like a 5 second google but he’s also one of your brothers in arms of the conspiracy cult.

ahhh emerald dream, a lil coven of Gladiator rmt Boosters there, they gotta protect their income I get it. I was in their guild, they and their R1 buddies all sit in durotar after midnight makin dat money. ur they used to, I dono where their hangout is now.

If Gatekeeping was a myth, if most of the gladiator mounts did not come with an rmt price tag, then people would not be offended by this topic, they would ignore it.

dunno. i transferred here for world pvp in wod. just my forum posting character happens to be this one.

I mean, they don’t. Lol. Especially not since the 2400 change. You can say that pilots have increased because of it but that still doesn’t mean that the majority of glad mounts are pilots / carries.

2400 was consistently low-mid duelist or high rival for basically arenas entire history. thats 3-5% of the pvp playerbase who would break that benchmark, especially with seasons as inflated as they’ve been in recent expansions. (3k used to be high, now people have 3800 exp.)

Compared to 0.5% that’s a huge group of players who all became gladiators the instant that change was made.

Then talking about it should not be a big deal then. Blizzard banns some low end players that purchased the glad mount as a show of presence. But if they banned all of the RMT boosters, AWC would be played by casuals lol.

I gots ma 1.8 moggies thanks to RSS, WINNING! So have many many wow players, they are even getting super high ratings, those websites are losing a ton of money.
