US Horde 20's

[Jrmilk]

I know all to well about having no horde on to even games out. I played for atleast 2 months solo Q'ing into nonstop premades.
But just hang in there dont be like e everyone else and slide over to the side winning it dont help the situation. I actually try and log on the side losing to try and help out sine win or lose we need more people like that.
Just the other day i was on alliance and they was so stacked that our group kept getting wsg with another ally premade games was boring. So even though i knew i would get stomped vs all the ally i switched sides and played against them. So just hang in there buddy

Actually, no sarcasm at all, the bracket needs more players Jrmilk. It's rare to see Jr contribute to the faction imbalance and you often see him on the losing side trying to make games more fair.

Not to say I'm innocent, I'm guilty of the same shit (free wins are hard to decline when all you want is your crate,) I can admit it's a bad habit though.

in my experience as a horde only vet atm:

- alliance runs 2x more arc mage/mm hunter premades
- alliance vets are almost always trash looking for easy wins, horde vets tend to have more self respect and take pride in constantly improving
- most alliance vets are trash arc mage rerolls
- horde has less vets but there is no doubt quality > quantity
- i play on horde ( best obj restoration druid in the bracket, it isn't even close )
- due to the astronomical skill gap it is never a surprise but expected and frequent for a couple solid horde vets to lead their team of undergeared levelers to victory vs alliance 5 - 10 man discord premades


some vets play both factions but at the end of the day they know horde is superior because the horde-only vets are mechanically superior to the alliance-only vets, no doubt the cross faction vets who play horde more are naturally better than the cross faction vets who play alli more

A lot of horde players crutch on syncing now so sometimes if they can't they don't even bother. I log into the horde community every day and every day I see "321 queue" countdowns lmao. Alliance doesnt do that shit at all, have never seen it happen in the community once. Dont get me wrong, not every horde player is guilty of this, but it's easy to notice when your faction doesn't do it at all.

When the hell does this happen? Who is syncing premades on horde? Everytime I am on there will be 5 mans, most of the time I just solo q.

Literally never seen an ally group synch multiple premades or roll xp bugged 29 twinks unlike horde.

Literally every premade I've ever seen horde roll has been try hard specs with multiple druids MM's and healers.

I've seen a decent split of ally rolling meme spec/suboptimal premades and tryharding but the fact I've never seen a non optimized horde premade speaks volumes.

At the end of the day it really just depends on the time of day and who's on. I've had days where ally rolls and days where horde dominates. The biggest thing I've seen is that if horde takes a loss once they just rage log. Ally groups seem to take thing less seriously and have thicker skin.

Horde 9 times out of 10 are doing the scummy stuff that ruins it for everyone.

Who on horde is synching multiple premades? Is it cold apples, who is it?

alli vets spread disinformation on the forums, alli vets are toxic

This! This! This!

We need more hipsters on horde.

As someone who has a strong love for fire mage/windwalker/etc, if you play hispter specs on horde you just played yourself.

Hvnter over here sneakily trying to make his facerolls even more faceroll hehe

Edit: have you ran into your horde fanboys yet? Group of 5 tryhards to farm you lol. If you beat em once though they ragequit

Horde just doesn't have as many players interested in playing underdog specs, alliance has way more hipster specs. There are some (Bobthebolter, Thismfspittin, and Caseykisses come to mind, big respect to those players,) but there's just not as many... Like you said, almost every premade that horde runs is just insanely strong and can only be countered if you put together a comp that's just as fotm if not more, essentially unbeatable if you're in a TF hipster group. lol

The irony of this post is not lost on me

the only surprise is you actually leaving stealth

Yea, that's what I try to do, I know I have the basic Rdruid and it's pretty z-fest on how easy it is to just DoT everyone and heal. So, I made my Paladin ret and it's super fun and I rarely ever see any ret pallies. I see all the basic MMs', Arcane, Fury. TONSSSS of arcane mages.. jesus lmao. I tried WW/Enhance, and it was fun, but I just fell in love with ret.

reach out for groups! are you in the Horde 20s community?

I believe I'm in all the available ones, could be mistaken, though. I should've joined a guild before my sub ended, I know Boon has one, but I don't really see him in BG's, encountered him a few times in arena.

Aussie nights, this is so true.
I have to be honest, when I queue there it is more often Horde stacking fotm specs. Quite often run into Druid premades which is just rubbish to play against when u solo queue.
Also, I see Horde GY farming a lot more often that Ally.
Maybe things r different on US time, but in my zone it’s opposite to what the OP is suggesting.
