I know changing the AV map isn’t going to fix alliance’s win/lose ratio, but balancing out the map will at least acknowledge that blizzard is aware of this problem. There shouldn’t be any reason for anyone to be opposed to this when the alliance’s lose rate is boardline 100%.
The alliance’s backdoor is the biggest issue rn. Unlike the other backdoors, this one was a result of importing classic to the legion client and is accessible to everyone. No skill requirement, just run forward and jump.
The other issue is the horde’s initial spawn. The spawn is significantly closer to mid, giving them a 30+ second advantage in both SFGY and SHGY. While it wasn’t a huge issue in vanilla, it’s an issue in classic’s mid-max era where every second counts.
In rep you are fighting the other faction, with honor you are fighting against your faction. Horde just like to fight against their own faction more, even if they don’t already realize it yet
Have you seen BG chat after someone suggests where to push and said push fails or when someone tells everyone in chat to stop turtling? Ever been stalked down by 1-3 low levels trying to snipe your target’s corpse because they’re in av solely to rep farm? The horde doesn’t even come close to us when it comes to fighting our own faction.
I’m guessing no, you just follow suit with the few horde who still can’t admit it, atleast most horde can, well the horde that actually understand why the cave Rez point is game changing.
Yea it’s up there with the horde crying about premades.
I just can’t wait for BC them all these horde “pros” can show me how amazing at PvP they actually are.
Like posting on a retail toon with achievements that are public. Look I found another horde “pro”. You do know your arena achievements are public right???
To say one faction is much worse at something is baffling. There are good and bad players on both sides, but most people are blinded by this imaginary war they could care less about fairness as long as it’s their faction with the advantage to bolster their imaginary war egos.
If Blizzard cared they’d do the bare minimum and alternate AV starts so each side gets to experience each start. That’s rule one of asymmetric maps, they are inherently difficult to balance so swapping sides at least evens things out over time.
I’ve been playing Alliance for the past month and have seen the issues first hand. Half our team is AFK the entire game. I don’t know how you expect to win 20v40 especially when the 40 have an average level of 59.9 while the 20 have an average level of 55.
