why do you think outplay means kill? you don't need to kill a 29 to outplay a 29.

Well, the discussion will be pointless as soon as F2Ps get WoD access - get Draenic Dust from Blingtron packs, go to someone's Garrison and use their Enchanter's Study to get cool stuffs.

Many of you are looking at things very magnified, yes even the most skilled f2p player won't 1v1 a decent 29 or vet depending on their class. But that's why there are 9 other players on your team. You aren't a juggernaught and you cant expect to win every battle or take on multiple ppl at once. That's part of the thrill, you need to have better foresight and understanding so that you don't fall into situations that you'll die in, compared to using chants where you can not think so far ahead and still be rewarded the same.

That's fair. I enjoying playing 29s or vets because I know I can go straight for the 29s on their team and have a chance to 1v1 them.

F2P: I play it when I feel like a challenge, or obviously in wargames with other f2ps, or when my party comp would be too faceroll if I played a p2p. Also play it to annoy shitters. especially like f2p hunter atm due to the mosquito-like damage, but huge annoying-potential for these purposes 
Vet: When mom wont pay my sub but i still wana pwn, or when I just feel like rocking my only proper vet, a disc priest. Don't play it much, though, because of how absolutely fucking ridiculously imbalanced it is.
29: When I just want to fuck around without thinking too much, or have a go at trying to literally 1shot people. Haven't played latest patch yet but I imagine rogues will be critting over 5k eviscerates now Some classes also become a lot more fun with the abilities/glyphs gained after 20 (hunter gets mad CC etc)

alright so the jenny thing was a joke
no need to get your pannies in a bunch
and you did legit state out that f2p = skill, like with no follow up or exceptions, thats just that
and were all forgetting the concept of Latin Americans, on how they que into a bg and have almost no fucking gear, i belive they get their own language interface and game experience and all so i dont know how they are clueless as how to the game works but thats that....whats your explanation to that
the only on i see is them being as any other noob that ques because there are americans
and this is especially supported by the fact that a Trial Account is for a trial, you clearly must be new to the game and there for must suck at it
as opposed to the p2p who would lock xp KNOWINGLY the purpose is to twink, and therefore leading up to their knowledge on how to gear and play, f2p is just known for being noobish

rofl wow was never ever game of skill, just like literally every other single blizzard game they made its more of a knowledge game
kids mistaking skill with intelligence, the smarter and more aware you are as a player the better poised you are to react and act accordingly . You need to know what spells to cast, what the opposing class can do and what you should do to beat them. Its more of a knowledge game that caters to the experienced and more knowledgeable rather than "skilled''
as for brazilians? most are 14 yo playing in internet cafes and they have a different meta and mentality just like the Chinese and EU/russians do

i think the better question is: why do you and rapido play horde in 19s, when horde is, by far, the dominant faction? you said you think 19s is easy, come and try to to pug FC on alliance.
jk, you guys do whatever. it should get better after the cup. the real plague of any bracket is faction imbalance. whether 19s, 29s, or endgame. when i left the bracket, almost all of the 29s played horde. this made for stupid bad games. however, if it ever got to the point where both factions had equal numbers of twinks of all kinds, it could be competitive again.
if i played this bracket still, i'd play f2p, but the way i see it, 20s bracket is a colossal goatfuck. i've made 29s and deleted them, and f2p just isn't fun anymore on most classes. people have approached me to make 20 vets, but i just couldn't do it.
there aren't a lot of brackets to choose from, but out of 19s, 39s (which has some activity, i hear), and 20s: 20s is the least of all options due to the huge disparity in gear and player attitudes.

yes that, but I remember a time in MoP f2p where most ur teams were 9 f2ps and 1 p2p, for both sides. It's really A SHAME, that it has come to where we are now.

We complain because of my above posting, if you started off as a 29 or even VET 20, you will have problems understanding, much more if you start in OTHER TWINK BRACKETS LIKE 39, 60, 70.
People dont understand how much negative impact they have on the games here when you bring a 29 in the table. Sorry for double postings. PPl, respond more often.,

Heads up, I started as a F2P and moved to Vet. I understand the F2P struggle. The thing that I don't understand is why people would still rather play F2P and sit there and just complain instead of just moving up to Vet.

I've made this very same point many times over the last while. And while it's true, especially since the inception of WoW, there's the original f2p community that's been around since 2011, and they still use the traditional definition of "f2p". I know I'll never really stop referring to them this way, as much as Kincaide tries to stop me.
