Thoughts on BGB?

I really enjoy it. Yeah there are drawbacks like people fighting in the roads etc…. However I found once you get past the 2k mmr people start actually making some plays and focusing a little more on objectives. It gets better once you climb a little. And obviously the outliers like dk ele and ret to a lesser extent make it tedious, but it is prepatch.

This has been mine and Doors’ experience as well. Once we got around 2k-2.1k MMR, there seems to be a lot more emphasis on team gameplay and objectives.

I feel like having a duo Que partner is going to be necessary once you start getting into the 2.2-2.4+ range, at least for normal people who aren’t AI robots with their game play.

I tend to agree. Doors and I have been taking a divide and conquer approach while supporting each other as needed. But having one person you can fully rely on seems like a must to push.

Bgb has been fun for the small amount I’ve played it. Admittedly I haven’t taken it seriously yet and have been just farting around trying things with my spec but I’ll definitely enjoy this exponentially more then the meme bracket.

My goal this season is a High Warlord title, and to absolutely sit up in my chair and go into gamer mode every time I recognize anyone on the enemy team, friend or foe. Lol

This is the most fun I’ve ever had playing this game since raiding Naxx.

I had same goal since my og one from rbgs is wasted on a feral I never login to anymore. Then I realized that it’s account bound now lol.

I wonder just how much it’s going to affect meme bracket participation and queues.

It will destroy it just like the meme bracket destroyed 2s. The lower end population that only hits q button because it’s easy will hit q button on bgb.

My hopes are to get general , that would make my season. I personally feel like the titles should be spec bound.

I probably won’t Que meme bracket.

Yep, that’s why I’m wearing Commander on this Priest. Lol But yeah dude I love BG titles, sadly I’ll never get a Hero title now, but I always thought HWL/GM looked cool so hoping we can push that high this season.

You can absolutely get it.

I 100% agree on class bound, I have arena master, grand marshall/high warlord, and lord of war on my surv that I didn’t start playing as my main till bfa lol.

GM/HWL my favorite titles.

Grand Marshal and High Warlord go crazy hard.

Also interesting tidbit is that the r1 title from Blitz appears to change with faction? Forged Warlord and Marshal. :dracthyr_yay_animated:

Hey rejoin that cord we need more people to pick on

No I wont join, this is the life cycle of that god awful discord. Especially now with the most fragile human beings “moderating” it. Cry and label every slightly mean word as a slur than beg the people with an ounce of personality to come back. Nope let it die

It’s more active than the forum.

I actually agree to an extent. However, I think it may have leveled out for us.

I just know my 9-1 frost dks last match was at a lower mmr than my 1-0 mw so whatever they got going on is either bugged visually or literally.
