I havent PvPd while leveling since 07, because twinking utterly sucks the fun out of the entire experience.
You might like it, but it destroys the fun for everyone else there.

So Blizzard and the hundreds of people in this thread are wrong?
False.
Go into the level 119 bracket.
Those arenât âloomed upâ twinks.
All the farming a certain group of boomkins with 100k+ health did, forcing us to sit in the graveyard, was a problem.
So much of a problem that Blizzard stepped in.
Iâm sorry, but 98% of the leveling playerbase is not the play thing of the 2% who like twinking.
And while my percentage might be off, we still are the vast majority.
We get queues (horde side) in eight minutes.
You cant get them after 2 hours.

Well, for one thing, there arenât âhundredsâ of people in this thread. Even claiming there are dozens would be stretching the limits of accuracy.
There are 156.
Itâs closer to 200 than 100
Itâs closer to a plural of hundred, ergo hundreds.
Check the first post before calling me a liar.

< 200 is not âhundredsâ. Learn to math.

156 rounds closer to 200 (hundreds) than 100.
Learn rounding rules.
And it sure is closer to 200 than your âdozens.â

TIL 500001 = a million
When rounding, yes!
Youâre learning!
Good job!
Take less effort? It takes more since a good amount of optimization is in order, and you generalizing a group of players doesnât help you.

This whole wants to one shot low geared players generalization people make of twinks needs to die. No wonder new players donât wants to be involved with this community.
156 posters. Not hundreds, 156. On two sides of a debate. Letâs be generous and say itâs a 50/50 split. 78 posters on each side of the argument. Explain to the class how âhundredsâ of posters are wrong.
Quit trying to use ârounding rulesâ to make it seem like more people support your side of the argument.

Iâve farmed gys and been farmed countless times in bgs with no twinks involved. Sometimes you just get rolled or steamroll the other team. Team comps and player effort affect the outcome of a bg a lot more than whether or not thereâs twinks present.
I mean⌠this might have something to do with the fact that itâs easier to separate xp on/off queues than to completely rebalance 119 levels of pvpâŚ
Except when while in average leveling gear and without enchants itâs often to be unable to kill a twink.

Again⌠why should someone who doesnât bother to enchant their gear win vs someone who does? Twinks are very very powerful but theyâre not unstoppable gods like people pretend. Like I said above, Iâve gotten twink-level kill counts by just playing a low level hunter and enchanting my heirlooms. Even this character Iâm posting on massacres people in low level bgs and sheâs not a twink. All my non-looms are just crap I bought on the ah or bought with the old honor point system.
Because itâs a leveling bracket, not max level end game. Yes, actually twinks are; there are many times while leveling to where no matter how much I outplay a twink I Cannot ever kill them 1v1 and without a twink on your side itâs nearly impossible to get them down. This is further proven by so many screenshots of going unkilled through a BG with like 40+ KBs.
Having strong enchantments for your level, and gear in slots that those of the average leveler for the bracket doesnât have access to is twinking in itself.

I feel like this is the crux of the issue. The game, even at max level, is not even remotely balanced around 1v1. Certain classes at low levels feel completely unstoppable 1v1 without even factoring in gear.
Often not, honestly. I feel like I can get kills on someone around equal gear; I often never feel like I can kill the twinks I run into. I even started an MM hunter, since people said thatâs broken for low level; and theyâve had no success in killing twinks either.
Too bad twinks arenât being banned outright- as theyâre nothing but predators licking their chops as they wait for casuals and new players to utterly destroy that have zero chance of fighting back.
Still, I guess twinks are very lucky Blizz loves them so much theyâre getting their very own bracket- one where they only have to face other twinks and thus get top end competition as they âpretendâ they want.
Of course- everyone here knows they donât want competition, they want to pwn nubs, and theyâre terrified this will both ruin their enjoyment of one shotting everyone and bragging about their 90+ kb, 0 death matches as they farm the GY with pals- as well as show them for the competition hating frauds theyâve always been.
âLarge segment of the community that just wants competitive playâ yet vanishes like mist the moment it appears and their free HK parade ends.

As much as players donât want to admit it, most people who complain about twinks are just terrible at PvP. They blame twinks, but in reality, you can put them against equally geared players, and they will still lose.
Wow players have been doing this for over a decade, blaming others for the fact that they are not good. It happens in raids (if I could just get the gear, I would be that good) and it has been proven 100% false in BFA. They give out loot like candy, and yet some players are still not good, and it turns out it has zero to do with gearâŚ
I Donât twink, but this vitriol for twinks is simply dumb.
