Truly amazing how fun WSG without premade

Something needs to be done about the WSG premades, I have SO MUCH FUN when its solo queue vs solo but the second it shows its vs a premade it instantly sucks the fun out of it no matter how hard we try. I hope blizzard finds a solution eventually

WSG is a truly great battleground. It sucks to hear about what it’s like at 60. I’ll be there to experience it for myself soon. I gotta say though, for solo-que pvp’ers, if you’re 46+ and have any recent gear at all, the 40’s bracket WSG is a paradise.

It’s not but that isn’t necessarily what he’s saying. Zoning in to WSG with total strangers and working together to get a win or at least a good match is fun. It’s how you meet like-minded people and make new friends and enemies. It’s just good old fashioned entertainment, without the sweaty nonsense.

How dare you play a BG for fun? Didn’t you know the only proper way to play WSG is in a premade while grinding max honor per hour from pugs?

You can build a group with friends that may not necessarily be the best group and still have fun and put up a fight against the hardcore rankers. Love when people add their own words/ideas to my posts.

that’s not the argument being made, Not everyone wants to premade. They could careless if they win or lose. But when it’s AGAINST a premade, they know it’s a lose and not “fun” instantly.

I, for one, have more fun when it’s all pug vs pug over a premade vs premade. Server side only bg’s would be worse also. Because the situation would be the same outcome.

Unfortunately this was how it was in vanilla. Adapt or play another game because a very large number of people don’t want premade vs premade / pug vs pug.

Vanilla had significantly les premade vs pug matches.

I’m tired of this response. Sick of it. It’s a completely different way to play the game. When you single queue you can play a game and then take as much time as you want to play another. You can play a game, do some work, play a game, do some work, play a game, make some food… whatever you want. Me personally, I like to get up and stretch a bit after every game. I get stir crazy sitting too long.

If you commit to a premade you have to play and play and play. It’s two completely different things and I am sick and tired of people telling me how easy it is to “just make some friends”. That’s never been the point and it never will be.

Friendly reminder that premades are not going anywhere and will carry on over to TBC and even Wrath.

People were not this organised and try hard in Vanilla. Some were but not this many.

lol. People don’t want premade vs premade because they don’t want a fair fight. Cowards.

I’d reccomend premading I mean nothing like those wsg games where alliance refuse to respawn after getting 0 kills and it’s over in 3 minutes

I was going to ask if you were just in my match, but mine took 5 minutes. Five, long, boring, stupid, minutes of unfun. I’m not paying to be bored, I’m paying to actually get to play.

Not sure what the answer is, but I’m about done.

You can play a BG for fun by queuing as a group or solo q’ing into AV.

Not true. Most premades are only a step up from pugs. I’ve beaten the 2nd best team of my region 2 to 1 today in AB.

What we don’t want is fractured queues.

Edit: 1 Hidden reply. ty blizz. If the below post mentions free hand outs, I suggest you ignore them too.

So? Some premades are better than other premades just like how some pugs are better than other pugs. That’s just the luck of the draw and the matching system cannot account for that.

That matching system can easily account for pugs fighting premades which creates a situation where one side has an almost guaranteed win.

Of course not, you are terrified of having to fight other premades and losing your free hand outs from killing pugs.

No people don’t want premade vs premade for a couple of reasons:

  1. That was not how it was in vanilla
  2. Would make ranking up even more difficult because all your matches would be like an hour long.

Exactly, premades are lazy and just want free wins against pugs.
