Black Gate
Ruthless Legend
Dear Pvp players who complain about broken MM system and then you SS a game of pugs vs legendary premades in Stronghold. if you havent notice or didnt know its a common farm for premades to get to legendary easily. by destroying curious players who generally has no clue how to play stronghold.
Yeah, I know plenty of people who used bunker Mesmer and condi rev in conquest at first. When those got their minor nerfs, those cheesers just went over to stronghold instead.
Legendary means nothing in season 1. Let’s hope it is improved for season 2.
Also, stronghold either needs a big revamp or it needs to be removed from ranked queue.
I really have no idea why this is in ranked.
First the invisibility bug and the current mesmer makes it near impossible to kill door breakers. I honestly feel its a joke on us because just for unranked Guild MIssions we saw a 2 mesmer 1 DH and 2 ele team. 1 ele went to defend there gate and the other 4 stealthed and time warped there door breakers. We couldnt kill the door breakers and there was 3 of us from trying after they took down our first gate.
This map is not designed for the current PvP at all.
Stronghold is fine in ranked. It’s a different game mode, so requires different builds, and more communication among a team. So yes, people who don’t understand the mode are going to do poorly. That doesn’t mean it should be taken out.
And it’s far more interesting than conquest bunker nonsense.
i was under the impression that SH is not part of league, i think i heard it from a dev. but was trying to look for the video cant find it. then surprise it counts to your league. tried it once got stomp by a premade team as soloQ and i never played it again.
Actually: Stronghold needs a league progression of its own.
Separate titles.
Separate rewards.

Since most experienced pvpers skip it and stick to conquest; matchmaking for SH is non excistant. If a group of legends q stronghold they will face a mix of ambers to diamonds and 100% win in blowout fashion = easy pip farm.
So no its not fine that its in leagues.
I would also seperate stronghold into its own league or leave it unranked …
