Blizzard, are you aware of Alliance's Alterac Valley win-loss record in the Rampage battlegroup?

While we're certainly working to make additional balance changes to Alterac Valley, and remove the "non-participants" (http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=3881781638&sid=1), might I recommend that you visit your Battlegroup forums and attempt to work on new strategies and cooperation.

I'm not suggesting your battlegroup is an exception, it may or may not be, but as far as I've seen the win ratio seems to differ (sometimes dramatically) from battlegroup to battlegroup. So, you may want to adopt new strategies, spread the word, and attempt to rally some cooperation by using things that have been successful for others. There's nothing specifically holding your battlegroup at a lower standing than others except for the people playing, and while we attempt to train players to play well (through gameplay and mechanics), we can't make them play well.

Q u o t e:


Yeah I believe that. Here's what I don't get though:

How is it that 10,000+ Alliance on Ruin all happen to be good, while 10,000+ Alliance on Rampage all happen to be bad?

It doesn't make any sense if most people get a realm assigned to them at random when they first start playing. And the random realm selection happens even before you pick if you want to play a Horde or Alliance.


If I had to guess I would say herd behavior mixed with old fashioned stubbornness.

Luckily you can have an impact. Crisis precipitate change.
