Alliance win percentages this AV weekend

[KapitiCoaster]

Just a little thought for the Bloodlust weekend in AV
I recorded the following data to help myself understand the negitivity a segment of the Alliance community has when encountering Horde within AV -

Day One: Total Games 23 (+3 disconnections did not complete BG)
Alliance 16 wins - Horde 7 wins
70% win rating for Alliance

Day Two: Total Games 19 (+2 disconnections did not complete BG)
Alliance 11 wins - Horde 8 wins
57% win rating for Alliance

Day Three: Total Games 9 (+6 disconnections did not complete BG)
Alliance 6 wins - Horde 3 wins
62% win rating for Alliance

To make the weekend more exciting I camped Van flag for all but three of the BG's to see how better suited my team was at defence then attack. The two resounding defeats I remember included the noted Prepared and a premade BG from a PVP server.

Stats on total kills (average and approx values)
3422 kills each (X5)
84 deaths each (some died more then others so this is a team average)

When next you enter a BG - remember to play smart - play smiling - you can make a very effective influence on the outcome!

Actually it all depends on me.

When on my horde toon the alliance wins, when on my alliance toon the horde wins.

I'm with JohnGabriel.

However, it doesn't matter if you play on the Bloodlust battlegroup, the Cyclone battlegroup, the Rampage battlegroup, or any other battlegroup because, for random BGs, the battlegroups are all merged per region (not sure if Russian realms are included with other European realms or not).

(not sure if Russian realms are included with other European realms or not).

In Europe you queue up in a pool according to your language. With that exception that the (only one I believe) Portuguese server queues up with the English realm pool, which is indicated by a special tag behind their name. You can face any language team though. You get a lot of fancy jokes at the start of a bg ... 'oh lets kill some Germans'. The only team you cannot face are Russian teams. Reason being is the Cyrillic they use, resulting in ??? instead of their names. You can however queue up with a Russian over real ID (as well with the French, the Germans, etc), but that's been a while since I saw that.

I played 10+ games this weekend, and only lost 2.

It makes a big difference when you're a large boxing group playing objectives (The alliance don't know what to do when they see 10 toons heading up a tower )

Played 20+ games to farm the 5 war mounts and to gear up a lock and a mage, so 3 boxing here. About 70% win rate as Alliance.

Ran into few hordes boxing teams. Took the Alliance PUG team great efforts to overcome the boxing teams, and slowly grind to Drek.

Only 2 encounters with horde teams playing the Rath Strat. The first encounter was with, The Zerg, with 25 members, and Alliance won, a big surprise. I was smiling to myself when I engaged battle with Ualaa, Cloverine, Kakuzu, and Tiny.

The second encounter was, hmm..... educational. I am no AV BG expert but this was what happened. The horde team was very organized, whereas the alliance team consists of 50% 'no brain' toons. Those alliance with at least half the brain decided to regroup at the bridge near stormspike graveyard and used it to our full advantage. It actually works. We drove back few waves of horde attacks, and see the horde reinforcement count reduces faster. Needless to say we lost eventually, thanks to the impatient alliance toons. It will be fun if both teams are premade.

Regardless, it was a fun weekend for me.
