I find PvP very monotonous. I go in, hope to get into a better team than my opponents, spam my skills, and then hopefully I win.

Do you guys (for solo players, not team players who have team strategies etc.) really think over and revise your build and time your skills?

When there are 3vs3 or 2vs2 or outnumbered fights happening, its so chaotic the one thing you want to do is just spam skills…

Can we have 1vs1 King of the Hill official mode where skills actually matter for solo players?

At this rate, I still find solo roaming in WvW much more enjoyable despite the really bad drops.

What division are you in?

Team fights are only half the game. Rotations and knowing where you should be are the other half.

This game is not balanced on 1 v 1.

And yes to get to legendary, I had to reroll between thief, engi, or revenant depending on team and enemy comp. Sure you could use one class to go all the way, but I think revising build/comp will get you better and quicker results.

Judging by the proleague streams spamming tends to occur less and less at higher levels of play.

This game has an obnoxious habit of being enormously complex and extremely fast paced to the point that only the high level players seem to know wtf is going on.

yup if you talk to high level players they all agree in 4v4 and sometimes even 5v5 every player knows exactly what’s going on with each member and 80% of the skills used are noticed.

Even pro league players have WAT?! moments in large team fights and have complained about the power creep/flashy/spammy nature gw2 has become.

So while higher players notice more, we all have the same problem.

I find PvP very monotonous. I go in, hope to get into a team with 1 reaper 1 scrapper 1 rev 1 chrono, let them spam their overpowered skills, and then hopefully I win.

Fixed that for you.

1) Play interrupt thief
2) Spam your stuff
3) Go back here and tell me how far you made it

Believe me young one, spam less, concentrate more, and you’ll be les worried about being carried by your team.

The better the players become, the rarer teamfight involving more than 5 players become tho.

Even in everyday ranked play, only at the beginning does a big fight usually happen, and that’s when both team choose a 1-4 split.

It depends on the map. But more fights are lower then 4 or 5 on one side. It´s a lot spam but if you only spam you will loose.
I do not change class. I just can´t play other classes beside ele to a level i can compete in ruby or beyond and unfortunately the classes i trained a bit are thief and warrior and swaping to them is usually not an option. But i constantly adapt build depending on the team compositions. Yesterday i did see 3 necros and changed to sage full group cleanse and destroyed them ….

Spamming only works in the beginning. If you try to spam say ruby, and above it will only get you so far. Pay attention to your enemies bar, as well as their team including your own.

This make no sense at all, when you suggest solo roaming takes more skill.
Alot of it, especially 1v1s are all about the build most of the time, also most players there are not running builds for small scale fights, nothing is really balanced in WvW either.

sPvP is about rotations and small group play.
Nobody with no sense of skill rotations, in any form of PvP; even organized WvW zergs, can spam skills if they want to stay alive or win a fight against skilled groups/players, apart from corruptomancer with scepter perhaps.

Does thief AA do something like corrupt boons? Are thieves stacked almost every match now? That’s the difference.
