Mondays on my BG at least are the best nights for 5v5 because people actually queue. Any other time during the week its the low 1300 rated teams or the high 2k rated teams with nothing in between -- so we gain a few points from the lower teams and lose a few from the higher rated teams.

But on Monday, its non-stop queuing - Tonight we went for around 20-5 which for us is great and went from 1520 to 1673 rating :)

1800 is starting to look within our grasp :)

We changed our strategy to a wait and bait -- before my first instict was to try and kill the first person who came in, and this worked for awhile but eventually they cought on so now when they send in their target dummie I hit it with flame shocks and start purging.

Also on warriors that come in blade storming -- flame shock, purge, purge, purge, lava burst -- I try to save my instant lava burst for the 2nd kill like a healer or ranged class that can quickly LOS me when they see they're being targeted.

I think my partner and I are finally getting this :)

We hit around 1725 then lost 6 or 7 straight bad matches back to around 1650. We decided to take a break and take wintergrasp, then we decided it was late and we had to get to bed. I suggested "let's play until we lose." Then out of no where, I lost count, but I know we went at least 26 straight games before we finally lost one, and ended @ 1777 for the night. Kinda cool to see the "hot streak" achievement light up.

It seems that now that FOK rogues are gone, and deathgrip gets grounded, it's a lot easier. I still need to stack more spell power as a few matches we lost were due to people surviving the burst just barely. Just a little more gear, and that'll solve that.

I'm with a druid healer, and some people always wonder how you 5 box, and run arenas. By swapping them in and out constantly, I find that once you get close to your MMR, their ratings will be very close:

I just need to start getting games in. I ended last season at 1359 but It still seems very sloppy play wise for me. I hear stories like above with people in still half hateful getting higher etc. Most of my team is still in full hateful + deadly off pieces. So I like the rest would like to see a video very soon, very very soon if possible.

Man I need to start getting games in again.. didn't know the odds had improved so much. Just got a healer the other day and we got up to 1000 and called it a night (we were already playing 1800-2100 MMRs from 0 rating so it took awhile). My guys are in 3 deadly 2 furious, all relentless off pieces except neck and ring.. if it's possible to get 1700 now still wearing some hateful, I got no excuses :)

Does anyone else have trouble with ressers on Blades Edge? We often seem to have this problem but last night was the worse -- we were up against a two with FOUR ressers. twice I had them down to 2v5 and they would just run around constantly LOSing me and my healer -- my healer would cyclone -- I'd try to time chain lightning/flame shock but it wasn't enough to kill them -- he'd root them and they'd just trinket or freedom out -- after 15 minutes they eventaully got back up to 5 and one of my down -- I only have that problem on that map, anyone else?
