Serious question, if you know you know. And by that I mean you’ve played both factions and KNOW the difference in winning percentages in BG’s and etc…
I know the racial thing is real, but I’ve been playing for a long time and Alliance used to be pretty formidable no matter what the racial situation was. Now they are just free honor to the Horde.
So besides that, does anyone have any other reason why Alliance across the board seem to be bad pvpers?
If they make it so paladins do reduced damage during bubble, literally 50% of the pop will quit the game. They literally think they are above avg because they can run around in bubble 3-4 shotting other melee.
If they nerf rets enough they might quit, and the idiots forcing alliance to lose bgs because they are attracted ret will leave helping improve alliance win rate.
Not that alliance are any worse. They have instant queue and horde dont. I noticed horde actually try much harder, especially since they have a 10-30 minute queue depending on the day verses alliance near instant queue. Additionally, Shamans are just that crazy good with their tool kit. I’ve always played both Shaman and Paladin and both sides, even now. Shamans, just 2-3 in a game is enough to ensure a horde victory.
Before Sod horde was dog sht in pvp. ERA on whitemane was ally dominated we won 85% of our bgs. I dunno if the Ret thing is why ally is bad, who knows.
The crazy thing is good paladins are absolute game changers in a team fight. Luckily most people that play them are selfish and would be better suited playing warrior or rogue, something for selfish .
50% damage reduction aura in pvp is a indirect nerf to bubble and a Big loss to alliance players. Ret paladin damage is not the Best one, we oom fast and horde have the Best racials, taurens with 10% stamina are Best now, orc in the long term is Best because the stun resist and berserker Will have best uptime effect and less risk
It’s because horde has more premades in queues. They group up to bypass the queue time. Wouldn’t be that bad if matchmaking wasn’t broken.
If you play with 4 friends as alliance it’s suddently much easier.
Shamanistic rage is very OP right now. 50% reduction, 20% from SR last 15 secs each 1 min, shamans are gods again, instant self healing (which rets don’t have in any form) and the damage from shamans is way higher than ret damage
Damage isnt really higher in PVP because good shams are using maelstrom procs on off heals and were cleansing diseases where as zug ret brain just smashing 3 buttons.
If your rets could find their cleanse and healing buttons along with freedoms u might be okay. Can’t remember the last time Ive seen a ret use freedom
You don’t know anything about ret paladin and you’re talking, You can’t compare enh instant healing with a ret paladin casting a holy light in 2.5 secs and losing 1/4 of the mana because we don’t have a SR OP rune.
If a ret keep cleansing healing and Freedom the ret doesnt have any chance to make damage, your IQ is 0. Give Word of Glory to rets with low mana cost and we can start talking.
