Rated Battlegrounds

After having talked to the Guild Leader of Warsong Blades, he and I agreed that we would try to pool the interested members of our guild into an attempt at Rated Battlegrounds. This is obviously only for those who are interested in such, and not to be considered an obligatory event.

Why? For fun, for points and learning together. Doing PvP, even rated such, amongst RP'ers will hopefully bring a good overall feel about it.

How? You sign up here, by responding in this thread. List your character name(s) and your role/spec.

When? Ths is not set in stone, as this topic is only to see how big the interest is for Rated Battlegrounds. Once I have a number of members I will talk to the Warsong Blades again and we will see what we can whip up.

Example:

Morgeth, Warlock (DPS) Affliction spec.

[Thanuk]

Thanuk, Shaman (DPS) Enhancement spec.

I guess this could replace the PvP night as well, if it's something we're going to do often

[Lars]

Muzjhath, DPS, Hunter

Still lack a PC, but I'm intrested!

[Gnash]

Krunch, enhancement, pro flag carrier

[Kaigron]

Kaigron, Rogue (DPS) Subtlety.

[Groshnakk]

(semi-sign-up for now! still bsuy with the license and school) Grosh, blood

[Gnash]

Krunch, crips

[Morgeth]

THE LIST

Kaigron, Rogue (DPS) Subtlety.

Muzjhath, Hunter (DPS) Survival.

Thanuk, Shaman (DPS) Enhancement.

Groshnakk, Deah Knights (DPS) Blood.

Morgeth, Warlock (DPS) Affliction / Shazula, Shaman (Healing) Resto.

Kozgugore, Hunter (DPS) Marksman / Gakrath, Warrior (DPS) Arms.

[Thanuk]

WTB moar healers! Lazy shamans!

[Morgeth]

Many on this list have gone inactive, so I'm going to state that the current draft looks like this:

Kozgugore

Morgeth

Thanuk

If anyone wants to add their name, please let me know.

[Vezara]

I need something to make the game more fun.. guess rated BG wouldn't hurt, expecially since my arena teams are inactive, sign me up if i am needed. Elemental shaman.

[Tarag]

I would be up for it, sounds like fun. Tarag (Dps) Enhancement.

[Morgeth]

Reults of Trial

Two battles took place


Those who participated in the first one (from Orcs of the Red blade) were:
Thanuk
Tarag
Morgeth
Groshnakk
Vezara

Those who participated on the second were:
Thanuk
Tarag
Morgeth
Groshnakk
Kozgugore

We actually won both games! In other words, the trial seemed to bode quite well. Me and Katalmach are already discussing a date for the next run, and I'll notify you as soon as we have agreed to a suitable time.

As a reminder: If you do sign up, please keep track of when the event starts, and if you all of a sudden can't come, then change your invite status to "declined". I get a bit stressed when I essentually have to skim through my MSN list and remind people.

Thanks for the fun runs, people!

[Morgeth]

Those who are getting invited for next Rated Battleground are:

Morgeth (DPS) Warlock

Tarag (DPS/Enh) Shaman

Thanuk (DPS/Enh) Shaman

Groshnakk (DPS/Blood) Death Knight

Kozgugore (DPS) Hunter

Vezara (DPS/Ele) Shaman

If you want your name added to the list, then post spec/name here in accordance to the set-up above.

I can't guarantee an invite to the actual Rated Battleground Group, so don't slaughter me if you don't end up getting into it. It depends a bit on what the Warsong Blades provide us with and what kind of set-up we end up with. In the Trial run, however, we ended up having to invite one random for the second run, so hopefully it won't be an issue.

[Thanuk]

Aye, this was awesome. Here's the scoreboard from the first match.

When patch 4.2 goes live, we might want to be sure to do around 5 wins each week, to reach the conquest cap which can no longer be done with only arena. Guess we would be able to without problems.
