  1. And yet, they don't even have to be good. All the work for a balanced well done PVP system was in place pre 1.2... They just needed a few rounds of Control Z at any point before areas were released.
  2. No it is true. Middle managers and marketing people don't always have the most firm grasp on what their developers can accomplish. Should they have checked with their dev's more thoroughly before promising cross server back in the day? Absolutely, but getting an accurate estimate on the effort / time x server would have required would have required telling said dev team that most of them where about to get laid off. So... yeah
  3. All for it! but crushing that many ego's might cause the internet to explode...
  4. I think its worth pointing out that the "collapse" happened as a direct reulst of BW announcing that they were pulling 8v8 ranked... the very thing they had all transfered to do. Most of them felt 4v4 wasn't worth transferring for and quit. those that went back to their original servers preferred their friends ect from the old server if they weren't going to get the pvp they wanted on the new ones.
  5. If you need to get WW off under pressure use mental alacrity. Your bubble makes you a much better node guard then you were pre WW nerf. If you can't juggle now you are probably Lightning spec. Lightning sorcs with their current burst being able to juggle like the old hybrid spec would be ridiculous.
  6. Agreed, a comment would be nice. A fix would be even better. A reassurance that they already knew about the problem would be too much to hope for.
  7. Yeah, that is exactly how I would expect it to play out, it is a no win situation for POT5. So? Just because there is no situation in which POT5 will get to claim they are better than Bastion from this transfer and their is a situation in which Bastion could claim it is better than POT5 doesn't mean it isn't a potential way to determine if Bastions teams are better than POT5s. Some experiments can only prove A>B if one result happens and don't prove anything if the other result happens, in some cases that is how the the scientific method works. Its not "fair" but this is one of those experiments. I'm pretty sure Bastion would be perfectly happy for POT5 to reverse the experiment by sending one or more of its rateds teams over to play on Bastion. In fact, please do. Sorry man, it was bound to happen with a team moving from one environment to the other. I totally get why you moved, and it was a good move in order to keep playing. And I agree, Casual was a fantastic team back when I played against them on the 2.0 PTS, I would assume they quickly got back up to that level after returning to the game.
  8. My thoughts exactly. I'm glad a little mimicry on my part was able to help you reach that conclusion. You're welcome.
  9. So Rock Bottom, a mid tear team on Bastion, is better than all of the top teams on POT5 except Casual? Oh, cool.

    rock bottom

    Looks to me like Rock Bottom might be a contender for Top 3 on POT 5. Infinite Darkness and Clutch are considered some of the strongest guilds on that server (at least according to that thread's rankings from week to week. I suppose we should wait a week to see how they settle before we really use them as a measuring stick to compare the level of competition between the two servers though. Best of luck to you Rock Bottom.
  11. Ditto, I'm glad Opfotm found a way to post again, makes the forums more interesting.
  12. That was the case even pre 2.0 when smash and pyro reigned supreme. Not saying heals don't need tuning, but that isn't the reason.
  13. So I could be wrong but isn't all of the blizzard stuff getting thrown around in this thread in relation to no super ques in their regular battlegrounds? I didn't look all that close but it seemed like they were still letting groups of up to 5 into their battlegrounds... kind of like BW lets groups of 4 into its warzones?
