Guild Wars 2

During the “waiting for players” phase before the start of a match, 3 players from the opposing team all switched to engineers..

What’s the point of this “Anti-profession stacking” thing I hear lots of players talking about if you can switch to another profession “while waiting for players”. Sometimes you end up with a match that isn’t balanced anymore especially when the other team isn’t skilled enough to deal with such a lineup.

I’ve seen this happen numerous times already, when team A feels like team B can’t deal with 3 minion master necromancers for example, they all switch to their necros and crush the other team.. lol

disabling character switching during this stage of the match might help?

To be fair, I often switch Classes in that phase, simply because my team isn’t balanced at all (because yay to that script which balances the match ups https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/finding-the-perfect-match/) eg. I had one game 2 mes (one was me) 2 ranger and 1 ele I swapped to war to try and balance it out.
