A rankers view on this new system

A few bad things from my POV

1. You cannot play with your friends without a cointoss

2. Premades is 40mins+ que

3. You are not able to reach High Warlord without luck (chosing right when it comes to ab or wsg)

4. Doing fixes without headsup are just wrong. I was done saturday = no marks for wednesday = 1 bonus week now when I cant reach my cap.

5. This feels very casual friendly which was the main reason for me to play nostalrius and not retail- so I hate that you go non blizlike into casual.

yeah a little whine between 30mins ques

So you have to - gasp - Q for pug matches which have 5-10 min Q's!

How is this casual friendly? I'd argue win trading was casual friendly compared to having to Q in bgs and fight for your wins, or GASP loses. Heck I cant tell you how many rank 12's Ive seen who cant play the game. If a casual gets 1 million honor this week I'd say he isn't casual at all. You imply you're hardcore but complain that the win trade abuse was made harder to complete. Not blizz like is a cheap complaint of a change that is attempting to stem rank abuse.

Just remember if its harder for you (MR hardcore) it must be that much harder for the casuals to rank. Maybe we'll see some rank 12-14 that can play their class rather than win traded to it and don't have any key-binds.

EDIT

Just saw your (OP) honor for last week, Honorable Kills: 1687 Honor: 999972
This week (so far, with a slow realm players update of 2015-09-19 00:17:53 ) Honorable Kills: 1724
Honor: 179895

You sir are a classic win trader complaining about win trading being gone. ~1700hks for ~1m honor....this week near same HKs for 1/5 honor. HAHAHAHAAH
Go Q and earn your rank brah.

Q'ing two people is q'ing solo? New concept bro, q solo increases your odds. God forbid you need to Q alone.

Btw i'm really happy about this change that forces premade scrubs to actually put effort pvp-wise into ranking, but i'm still curious as to when this premade vs premade prio queue kicks in. Does it happen when you q for anything with a group of 2 people or more?

yes any party is a party regardless of size.

On a separate note I think the title of this thread needs to be "Win trade Rankers view on the new system."

Well, the new system serves everyone better than the Previous one. You just have to play alot and win alot in order to succeed.

Strong prevails, you can compare last week to this one and see the difference. You just have to play the games and tryhard little aswell. http://kuvauppi.fi/view/output/GUID/218 ... onoria.jpg

Also i just have to mention that , if you get extra week because of the change of the system did you take in consideration how many weeks you have already saved by being able to Wintrade and play Poker at the same time ?
