You either zone in a winner or a loser. Literally 50/50 chance.
Pretty much. either zone in and win sunken ring, or zone in and lose sunken ring. then you either steamroll to a win, or wait out an agonizing 40 minutes.
Somewhere between stat squish, build up and rebuff, break down and resquish, Wintergrasp has gotten lost in some disastrous zone where Cats and Rockets are all you need for defense and you will almost always win if you’re defense. Even if you lose the SR push on defense there are far too many chances to recover since the tanks basically one-shot players but do almost nothing to the walls. The same exact scenario happens every single time when I get put on offense and the same exact thing happens to the other side if I get put on defense. I have loved Wintergrasp like nothing else in game but this set-in-stone rinse and repeat BG is like actively playing a recording and hoping you can change something you have no control over.
Then the blame starts in chat, because somehow people still trust the idea that nothing in the game is broken except the stupid/dumb/lazy/worthless players they play with. It must be their fault since absolutely nothing in any situation ever is wrong anywhere. Can you just pay people to figure out what needs fixed instead of paying players to say nothing needs fixed? LOL I’m joking but am I?
