Blizz, Wintergrasp is basically a free win for offense whether or not teams are evenly matched. This is probably intended due to the big benefit of being able to run VOA. Why not just keep the lagfest instead of keeping a bunch of players out of the zone. The outcome will not change, just a little extra lag. Who cares.

There are simply too many people who are affected by the Wintergrasp lag for us to leave the issue as it stands. A change is necessary to make the Wintergrasp playable by those who truly want to participate in it. We feel that this is the best choice that we have available to us currently and that this will improve the overall quality of the experience Wintergrap players will have.

Do you think if you can one day find another solution, that might be able to keep it like it is right now?


The issue is a complicated one, but as soon as we're able to support the number of players that are involved in Wintergrasp without debilitaiting latency, we fully intend to make the zone function as it was originally intended.
