After about 4k HKs on my Hpal over the past month or so, i can say this is by far the most fun bracket i have played in. i am saying this as someone who has twinked since the server only pvp days. this reminds me of the old 70~79 bracket where I had a lot of fun too as a 70 rogue.
i want to thank all of you for making this lively pvp scene available, including the alliance premades that have farmed me and other horde twinks, as rivalry is always a healthy element for a pvp bracket.
i want to write down a few things as to why this bracket feels so fun for me personally, feel free to add your bits.
1, having access to a variety of BGs, especially the complex ones, such as eye of the storm, silvershard mines, temple of kotmogu and even seething shore where i lose most of the time. i am really not a fan of capture-the-flag BGs as they are so one-dimentional and there is limited room for 5-head plays. honestly, i would blacklist WSG and Twin Peaks if i could, even though my build works best for these BGs. i do wish that AV would pop from time to time, it has never been my favorite BG but I miss it.
2, 1~3 twinks vs 1~3 twinks BGs do happen. these are usually the most fun games. the levelers are sort of like "cards", as a twink, i need to play my "cards" optimally to win.
3, PVP is not overly bursty or the other way, there are plenty of ways to gear your toon and a wide range of playstyle is viable for every single class or even spec.
4, In the grand scheme of things, GF'd gears make minimal difference. furthermore, readily available items (such as https://www.wowhead.com/item=7375/green-whelp-armor ) that most people overlook can be amazing in the hands of the right players.
5, the queue time is amazing, i often find myself not having enough time to do AH business in betwen queues.
6, the community is amazing. sure people may talk trash on the forums, but most twinks i have interacted with (from both sides) have been nice inside the game.
if you are already part of this bracket, thank you for being part of the community and making it possible.
if you are a lurker that is considering trying out the bracket, what are you waiting for, do it now! (consider coming to horde as the two biggest guilds are both ally right now, so there is a little bit of imbalance)
P.S.: keep in mind that i am writing this after a painful loss in Temple where i believe i could have done more to help my team win, so i really mean it when i say I am absolutely enjoying this bracket.
