World of Warcrafts PvP team would rather figure out ways to waste your time than make content for the game.
They actively create modes to expedite, facilitate and camouflage 3rd party exploitive RMT that operate often outside the US against the player base for a $ profit.
As long as Solo Shuffle remains 6 rounds artificially taxing you twice over via queue time, and gambling larger chunks of CR, in unregulated settings due to untimely enforcement of fair play.
You can't garuntee they aren't scripting, you can't guarantee they aren't bots, you can't protect against que syncing in regular BGs, Epic BGs, or Solo shuffle, meaning you can't guarantee the integrity of matches. You are forcing players into toxic situations where they have to do things like train bot networks which will exploit the ladders.
The mode itself is so discombobulated that the actual matchmaking pools are completely segmented in a way arena has never been! The ability to queue into mirrors is greatly reduced, some specs are completely isolated into separate queues like protection paladins. Healers don't get points for the quality of DPS players they fight simply because of the shuffling resulting in a terribly inaccurate point system.
The human experience is not consistent like math, it is not something that can be crossed out and discounted because it's on the same side of an equation. Furthermore clearly this mode completely refuses to acknowledge the fundamental reality of human nature, why would want to help people who may have just beat you or lost rounds for you of course it's going be extremely toxic.
The developers are not the emotional guru of youre players here to teach lessons you're here to provide the space for us to enjoy the game. This mode is completely counter to that.
Lol the developers literally steal eachother's breastmilk out of the fridge to drink and they ACT LIKE THEY HAVE SOMETHING TO TEACH US.
THE AVERAGE LIFE SPAN HAS 657,000 HOURS IN IT I ALMOST GUARANTEE THAT PLAYERS SPENT MORE TIME IN SOLO SHUFFLE QUEUE. WE CANNOT SUPPORT A SYSTEM THAT HAS WASTED MORE THAN 1 PERSON LIFE WITH FLUFF.
This could all be either completely avoided or greatly reduced by changing it to what players had been organizing and campaigning around. Solo Queue. A single arena round. This alone simplifies not only the point and mmr discrepancies between healers and dps it immediately BRINGS QUEUE TIMES DOWN TO ~ THAT OF ARENA SKIRMISHES. For people to put this into perspective DF S1 W2 of the PvP season @ 2352CR on Devastation I sat a 5HR 49 MINUTE QUEUE. In no other game would this take place.
These people care more about being at blizzard to be part of a "scene" they they do to be there to actually work on the game.
If the entire PvP team was fired I would be greatly interested in the next piece of WoW that didn't not have their influence on the game.
I know I will actively be following and avoiding any product that is marketed with the "Ex-Blizzard Dev brand" ALL THAT MEANS TO ME IS THERE'S PROBABLY A BUNCH OF BACKDOOR EXPLOITS DESIGNED IN FOR THOSE LOSERS TO FEEL GOOD ABOUT THEMSELVES WITH. Honestly that's really what's what going on.
4 years deep actual cyber time put some respect on the boys name
