Whatever happened to chill 2s cap?

now its all sweats and try-hards at 1k mmr smdh

I do chills 2s cap on pretty much all 10 of my 80s. I list the group with my ttv link, play to 1600 without checking xp, or flaming chat. If things don’t work out I leave(or get left)

I feel like it’s pretty chill up to like 1800?

The viability of non-M/R double dps 2s is a bit lower just because hybrid healing is kind of pathetic atm, in stark contrast to healers’ throughput.

In the past, 2s used to be the conquest “cap” bracket - LFG used to be full of “just for cap/chill cap/chill games” groups, and the majority of the players were not taking it seriously. 3s was the “sweaty” bracket.

Nowadays, blitz is the “conquest cap” bracket, even shuffle. All the people who used to play chill 2s, go there. Now 2s is essentially for the hardcores only, and it is so deflated, that you must be gladiator or so to reach 1.8K :smiley: which incentivizes even less people to play it

Man blitz is awful conquest compared to shuffle.

Shuffle loads you with conquest and honour. Easiest way to gear is spend an evening doing shuffle and you’ll be set.

Idk whatever happened to that bfa 2s rdruid

Dno? He still plays. Once or twice every now and again. Occasionally participates.

I mean the name redacted one who heroically pushed Elite with my good friend Dozer.

Oh, i Qd into him the other day playing boomy + fury with asb-no one. Just an average boomy/rdruid/fury warrior who absolutely wasn’t born without hands.

i think conquest happened? 10 games a week win or lose was the system back when 2s was popular.

I still find 2s to be the easiest to cap conquest each week in, especially if you’re a healer and still climbing. I just queue RSS and try to find someone for 2’s while waiting for RSS queue to pop. If I get someone solid within that time, I just leave RSS queue and stick with 2s to cap. Only need to win like 6-7 games i think.

I will say 2s capping can be a struggle as some dps classes, especially if you’re in full greens. I found sub rogue, and frost mage somewhat difficult because 1, I’m not very good at them, and 2, they’re supposed to be run as double dps. This is fine if you’re geared and know wth you’re doing but can be a nightmare otherwise. Healer/dps muuuch more forgiving.

Based on my experience, Aff lock/war/bm hunter with a healer seemed to be relatively easy in 2s with heals.

If you’re not playing 2 random specs with no synergy as double dps 2s you’re a tryhard in 2s.
