Long Queues

Why are the queue times increasing dramatically - sometimes it takes an hour for a single random battleground.

if you are looking strictly for fast ques. Que for WSG and AB games should pop within 2-15 mins. if you are want to que random and are lvl 20 cross off av only, if your 29 cross of battle of gilneas and AV for fast pops.

I queue for Warsong Gulch and Eye of the Storm - excluding Arathi Basin and Alterac Valley; however, they both seem to take upwards of over an hour to receive a game, queuing as a Guardian Druid.

probably the cause is the recent banwave from blizzard 13/05/2015 many accounts get banned 6 month

It's all about the timezone. Affiliate your gaming hours with nighttime so that it becomes 6pm -1 am. These are the best hours and your likely to pop a queue in less then 15 minutes.

I'm in a similar situation, being in the Oceanic Realms and the western most part of that zone, and with work in the day I can only get on late our time, which means I'm too late for the Oceanic Realms and too early for the US realms.........

30 - 60 min queues for me also, and there is nothing I can do about it........

except maybe some exciting fishing or archaeology :O

Keep in mind that this bracket gets AV pops.

If there's an on-going AV match; que pops will slow down. And then again a lot of people don't que AV for their own reasons, similarly people don't que WSG(premades mostly que WSG). Meaning some people may only que for AB/eots.

There's a lot to keep in mind when asking yourself why ques are so slow. A lot of it can be explained by what time of the day you are queing up and what bgs are you queing up for.

Very estute observation. Since I solo queue, I rarely queue up WSG because of the premade farm groups. As I would rather wait 15 min for a full good game rather than wait 10 min and gamble for either a farmfest or a partial game that someone AFKed out. Besides, WSG is stale.
