Of course.

Things change here and there. No big deal.


Every year we see about 5 reasons/things that are going to kill WoW/Twinking. Been that way since Vanilla.

I'd like the 49 bracket to stay alive.
I just enjoy 3 talents, fast mounts, and more than 3 buttons to push.
I have a 19 and close to a 29, since I know they'll have faster and realistically the only chance for queues outside of organized queue ups.
 
It's a BG queue, not digging a foundation out of bedrock. When people don't get pushed away, there's always enough for games. All the revivals I remember started hot, then some would lose interest and some would have interest taken from them.

The second one is the problem i'm referring to. As soon as you (elitists) start telling people not to play you lose.

The community channels and (comparatively) significantly better state of balance in the game bodes well for organizing game nights for 39s. With that said, @Warglave brings up a legit concern. 39s, more than any other bracket in which I played, really struggled with inclusiveness. Some of the people who wanted games, wanted either good games or nothing at all and had no compunction /afk'ing an underprepared or underskilled teammate. 39s weren't the only bracket that did this, but they were best known for it.

When people put effort into organizing and participating in game nights, they tend to bring higher expectations for the quality of games, and the vast majority of today's twinks haven't experienced what a true 10v10 twink BG is like. Yes, the tools are better than they've ever been for organizing games, but player patience dropped. I highly recommend setting clear expectations for these games, if 39s want to avoid a repeat of history.
