Do Myrmidons pvp now? xD

[Orphic]

Yea, they do. Faced them in BG a while ago, they put up a good fight ;)

[Celtzy]

Oh my God,reading WOHL and BEST in the same sentence makes my eyes bleed.I was on horde for a month only to see it being full of scrubs and kids.Only good guild is Myrmidons.And horde is all about PvE,the PvP scene isn't as active as it is on alliance,and that's why I went back.Horde is nowhere near as competitive as alliance,and I gotta say that there are only 4 good players on horde,which are Toberz,Hippo,Dubs and Firge.Besides them the arena scene on alliance is far greater.

Why arena is how you measure pvp scene. Lots of hordes doesnt need to play arena anymore. Yea those players you mentioned are good at 1v1 2v2 with overpowered comboes, When it comes to largescale pvp which is much more fun.. I hardly ever see them.

[Shiina]

Because "large scale PvP" takes literally no skill.

I don't see how anyone here can deign to tell me or anyone else what defines a good PvP player.

Arenas, BGs, and WPvP are all very different forms of PvP requiring different tactics, skill sets, and situational awareness. Someone who is good at BGs may not be good at arenas, and vice versa. Furthermore, someone who is good at BGs isn't worse or better than someone who is good at arenas. Quantitatively proving someone is better is difficult, and hypothetically impossible since "better" is the most subjective term known to man.

I'm unable to figure out what this "Good at BG" means lol, you mean like don't stand still? Run away when you're attacked? Heal yourself when you die? I think alot of people call that common sense. :D

As for large organised pvp, there is no such thing in WoW, people have tried and routinely failed to apply it, even top retail arena players, play 10v10 rated bgs like it's a 5v5. Having a raid stand still and putting some healers in it is an achievement for world pvp but it cannot be called organised mass pvp, but i guess in wow this is as close as you're ever going to get.

It's called doing whatever is needed to win. A player with an 1/2 score sometimes have done much more to win the BG than someone with 20/0. Players who knows to play a BG properly will understand what I'm talking about.

I love it when you claim this, who play a blood dk aimed at doing particularly nothing as long as the enemies are smarter than a stone. You should realize sooner or later that the only reason for your apparently meager success is the fact that your opponents are 99% of the times clueless in almost everything they do in this game. That nevertheless has no hold on reality, which proves to you probably everyday that your wrong. You should be taking this saying seriously: "The definition of insanity is to do the same thing over and over again and expect different results"

You're wasting your fingers, now get me some peanuts, the show's about to start.

You can be good at BGs, thus involving tactics needed for larger base-orientated zones like EOTS, AB and BFG. Getting a group of 10 people to work co-efficiently require a lot of leadership and trust among the team. Something which I have experience from both factions, LOB 10man premades were awesome, full of leadership and with everyone understanding, and same goes for WOHL.

Arenas however work on synergy between 2-5 people, however 2s shouldnt count for anything, it's far too unbalanced.

I myself am a BG person, I would rather leader 10men out into the field than sit there doing arenas.

as I say to my team, "One strong team can take down an army"

[Shiina]

BGs are where people go to get carried.

[Griefel]

BGs are where people go to get gear for arena/pve/bragging/dueling.

Let me fix that for you.

[Orphic]

Good at BGs meaning you work efficiently together to win the BG.

This would mean playing for the objective.
