Seething shore is still bugged (and probably always will be). I have to /reload 4 or 5 times per match otherwise people start attacking me from the air and I can’t hit them back.
That’s just because I clicked the “only results from forums.blizzard.com” link and it was the EU one. There are plenty of results if you check the US forums as well.

It will always be really weird to me that SOTA was removed and IOC was left in the game. I’ve got a lot of nostalgia for IOC, but I can’t sit here and pretend I actually like it nowadays very much. SOTA was far superior, even with its problems.
To clarify, I don’t think removing any bg is the right thing to do – I think fixing it up and modernizing it is the bare minimum. Removing it just sucks for the people who enjoy it.

Wintergrasp was designed to just be an open world thing.
As a battleground it’s turrible
Seething Shore and it doesn’t even come close.
I really like epic BG’s as a concept but they’ve been neutered in a way that you’re only in there for 10-15 minutes, counterplay is often lost in place of zerging objectives. It feels like a lot of the epic BG’s need a functional rework.
Tho as a previous comment mentioned I do enjoy a good AV turtle push.

I only like AB, BfG, DWG, WSG, and TP. ToK is alright if playing a bursty class. Hate every other one with the passion - especially the new one lol.
One of the things that bothers me with epic BGs is that, in terms of rewards, they feel like a big time waste if you’re on the losing side of a very long game.
If the honor gains were higher I don’t think I’d be quite as frustrated. I can’t say I blame people who leave IOC when the first fight is lost – that BG is really frustrating to me.
The epic BG that makes me the most sad is Ashran. I really liked how it was in WoD, but for obvious reasons it just doesn’t translate well when you turn it into an instanced version of itself – because people just try to rush it out rather than enjoy all the side objectives too. Everything that made it dynamic and interesting was lost once they turned it into a “just any other epic BG.”
I think the only two epic BGs I find myself having fun with are AV and Wintergrasp - although both can become frustrating if, again, you’re on a losing side in a very long game.

This is how I feel about Wintergrasp. It’s just not the same.

“Seething” Snoring Shore or “Deepwind” Crapwind Gorge.
Too much running in one.
Not enough of anything, and just being buggy since its inception in the other.
BFG for me. 3 nodes and boring map overall.
