Im noticing a growing trend in my games since reaching Honor Level 30 is that im facing numerous and numerous premades now.
I queue solo and am facing premades without a premade on my own team (which seems like a fair predicament) am I doing something wrong ?
I’ve had a couple of games where its premade vs premade and the games are close and fun. But a lot more when its premade vs pugs and we get stomped ? kinda makes me want to quit
I dont think I’m a bad player 
but if anyone wants me to give me free tips I will happily give out my btag for a few 1v1s to practice

sadly the only way to kinda avoid premades is solo shuffle or blitz. but even some geeks r syncing Qs and wintrading in both of those.
and yes… this game has had very lopsided 1 stomp games forever. it kinda is what it is i guess. theres a long list of things devs could do to fix t his, and theyve all been suggested… they just dont care tho

A sad reality when your entire self-worth is based upon a video game and not your real life accomplishments indeed.

Can always do mop remix with me.
I am not going to waste my time queuing into premades back to back when there are collections to be had.
My btag is Jurassic1011#1976 I look forward to hearing from you

Free tip. Level with pve, then play Blitz. Less premades.
so close. level with pve for levels under x5 so you can gear your toon then run bgs at the top end of the bracket. that way you’ll have the honor cap when you hit 70 and will have enough honor for a full green set day one.

These casual PvP brackets will die when games devolve into join a premade or get roflstomped by one.
Pugs aren’t going to queue up if they’re mainly just fodder for premades. That’s not fun.

Yea, I find it absurd people try to rationalize their cheating by saying sync queues are a way to play with friends. And Blizzard makes the situation worse because they are allowing it to happen but not officially saying it’s okay. It’s like they are pretending it doesn’t exist. And the sad thing is it would be easy to fix. Just make it so if you queue you can’t shut off the queue when it pops.
Or if you do shut off the queue you get a 5 minute debuff until you can queue again. Sure, it might not completely stop the sync, but it will slow it down by at least 5 or 10 minutes, maybe longer if they all don’t get in together and need to re-synch numerous times.
Iin the end, this is yet another blemish on their already tarnished reputation, and in the future when people finally quit for good this will be one of the things they remember. Nobody is going to remember it as a way to make the game better to queue with friends LOL.

I suggest avoiding epic battlegrounds because there is no matchmaking at all there.

I guess I shouldn’t assume everybody has Honor stockpiled on other characters.
All these suggestions, but no one ever asked if you knew what it takes to win a battleground. How can you win if you barely understand the mechanics?
For example, do you know the pros and cons of using a siege tank in Isle of Conquest? Why is it important to capture certain nodes over others? Why is a catapult’s flame breath better than a demolisher at killing players? What’s the range limit of the cannons on towers in Wintergrasp? Why is it crucial to capture the middle of the Eye of the Storm map first? Did you know you can walk as a ghost to the next graveyard if you’re being GY camped? How many strategies do you know to turn around a losing game?
I find most people lose because all they know is to zerg, and that’s it.

You’re only 1 in 40, even if you double the performance of the average person you still represent 5% of the total. Primary reason people lose epics is a bad matchmaking algorithm.

I see why new players quit the pvp scene.
You have games where your facing premades of 2000-2400 players multiple BGs in a row… like bro ? Are you that sad you need all that against pugs ?

Players want fair games. When pugs are constantly getting roflstomped by premades, pugs stop queuing up.
It’s not fun when premaders rig their teams so they win ~95% of the time. Congrats on turning your PvP experience into PvE where there’s little competition and you’re pretty much guaranteed to win.

There are a lot of people who are sad like that yes.
But again just let them que into other premades and come play blitz or remix.
