Horde is faster, battlegroups are a myth.

Another question on the long list of what blizzard is doing.

Arenas.

Battlegroups now only apply to Arenas, now, if I recall correctly. Meaning, it's any server vs any server, instead of a set group of servers.

Horde queue times are faster

Battlegroups are also used to try to build a match as well. A WSG/AB pulled from all players from a Battlegroup will have less latency and Blizzard tries that first. If there are not enough players they supplement from other Battlegroups.

As for queue times the Horde have it way better. Instant pops for the most part 24/7. Queuing alone as Horde you will learn one reason why. I have twinks on both factions and Allies have it easy with way more, on average, ranged DPS, healers and of course better gear available. It is so bad that very often the entire Ally team goes straight to the Horde GY and gets ready to camp the GY. Forget about trying to talk reason to an Ally team as "farming" has taken over what serves for a brain for them. Horde side, once the realization hits that they will win some fool will ask the inevitable question..."farm?". When we say hell no and why...usually no argument. That is except for Duofool.
