Battle for Gilneas FAIL

The number of people botting in BG's is unbelievable btw.

Once you know what to look for, it isn't uncommon to see 50% or MORE in the 10 mans botting.

1 rogue kept following me today in IoC, and blamed me for losing...

I have the best IoC strat for my hunters (undefeated!), but yeah...other BG's seem painfully failboat. I had hoped TB would be my easiest source of honor, but the Horde on my server have completely lost the ability to win it with regularity. So I turned to random bg's and...yuck. I don't get blamed for losses a lot, but I am told I'm bad a lot (which might actually be true).

I used to try and be reactive in BG's, do stuff like try and hold 3 cap in AB or whatever.

Then I thought strategically about what I am and what a 4 or 5 box can do. It is all about impetus and momentum. If you stop moving or begin to behave predictably the other side will quickly operate around you.

In short, I never stop capping. If the opportunity to GY camp more than my number of players presents itself I will take it. On WSG and TP roam mid map and never let them cap, deliberately aim to snipe the flag carrier. If your team gets a cap DO NOT TURTLE. Stay midfield and keep blasting them when they try to run it. This might turn into a full match duration draw, but I've had games where I had 200 HK's and had 2x as much honor as the hordies ;p

In EOTS pick one side and ride back and forth between the two, I find that I generally have no problems holding 2 points down with minimal interruption due to the cap mechanic. This leaves 10 people to control flag or a third point.

In AB my go to move is, pop path of frost and ride directly to Farm (as Ally). Cap that point and then prepare for the respawners from battles elsewhere. If your team isn't all bots this can often turn into a 4 cap as a huge brawl erupts at Farm.

These strats work for my DK team, the problem is there are so many botters these days that a win or a loss can be pre-determined on some maps based on ends up with more.
