The truth about skill in pvp

[Sofan-dalaran]

So much cope in these threads.

Rss is convenient. I q up and can literally play another game or do w/e i want to play in the meantime.

Waiting an hour in lfg for a potential game can lead to exciting matches but its alot more involved and time consuming.

At its core, RSS is exactly the same as lfg arenas. You might dislike it, but the core principles of pvp are all there. You just gotta deal with the rng and dampening.

But a well placed CC or outplay is just as effective.

Wow aint special. Ladders exist in everycomp game and people improve in those ladders all the time with effort if they want to.

Again, you aint special. Wow is just a game. People get stuck or improve just like everywhere.

Rss is convenient and thats the best part about it. Stop coping.

You let the cat out the bag already. It’s not unique to you, though, everyone is guilty of this when they speak on the topic. If everyone was getting their typical rating then no one would care that all the noobs left 3s. You guys have hated us for years anyway; pissing on us over XP is the step 1 response the instant someone without multi-glad XP upsets one of you (you I’ve never seen do this, but this is a general response, not just a direct response).

I’m bothered that people have chosen to replace 3s with ss when I’m sure the intention or the expectation of it was to be a stepping stone to real arena and to help you find partners, test builds, etc. This is what skrimishes and bgs did before ss.

I think what really messed up 3s was the first season of SS where everything was mega inflated. People easily got 3k+ rating and they got it in their heads that it was never them it was their partners and solo is where their skills really shine or whatever.

@Healthy-illidan

You’re sick of getting your guts kicked out by better players in half your games at much lower MMR than you think it should be happening (and I don’t blame you, that’s also why I don’t find arena fun) but that’s harder to admit than saying ‘u GuYs R nEvEr GoNnA lEaRn NoThIn N tHoSE nEw WeLfArE sOlo QuEuE bRaCkEtS,’ then you couple it with ‘you all just want easier rewards!’ to couple the phony interest in my growth with fake shame, all because you want something from me to make your life easier.

Im more sick of only facing the same 3 teams during prime time. SS and bgb spread the pvp base too thin. Maybe a fix would be to combine 3s and ss together.

@Healthy-illidan

This, plus the gameplay being maximun levels of annoying with omega levels of coordinated CC, and none of you can understand why 3s is dying? Like really? Lol

It’s not any worse than its been in other seasons. MoP remains the most cc spamming expansion ever with every spec having insane 1 shots. And that was one of the most popular pvp expansion.

@Swolé-emerald-dream

Wrong. I tell people what they’re doing wrong all the time and get reported for it and have never gotten banned. As long as you don’t turn it into insults you are fine.

I didnt say banned, I said silenced you can get chat silenced for making suggestion if someone reports you enough. It has happened.

@Swolé-emerald-dream

You’re just upset because things aren’t going your way, so you’re looking for anything to put the blame on as to why no one wants to play with you anymore.

If no one wanted to play with me anymore wouldnt i be doing SS?

Rss is convenient.

Let me guess, demo warlock, first glad (if you have one) is sls2, highest rating is prob shuffle.

Did I get that right?

[Kydrav-khadgar]

Add a way to q 3s without LFG profit.

LFG is outdated.

[Sofan-dalaran]

According to the guy above, that makes you a df s2 scrub with no right to talk.

Careful bruv

[Tiamyst-stormrage]

The truth about skill in pvp is you rolled a rotm overperforming spec and comp and brute forced your way through.

@Ozimov-area-52

There are non-meta specs at r1 cr right now, how can these guys climb up there with such a spec? They got carried? Bought their way up?

Its cuz SS meta isn’t the same in solo shuffle then in 3vs3.

In 3vs3 you have a static group, so if your class has 1 OP combo (lets say RMP) you can win rank 1.

In solo shuffle you need a spec that works with a multitude of spec to be rank 1.

Also, SS and blitz get more coordinate as you climb the ranks since your paired with other good players.

Kinda why I makes melee cry on my evoker when I was sub 1800 but now, I play agaisnt players that can counter me.

[Felphreak-bleeding-hollow]

CORRECT because the rating system is 20yrs old and it puts players with little to no knowledge with players that do have knowledge which in turn makes the game toxic because you get stuck with players who legit have 0 clue how to play their class or do the basics of pvp.
