Guild Wars 2

I usually enjoy solo queueing in team arena (bcuz no skyhammer) but one thing i noticed alot is how long the queue time usually are and how imbalanced teams are in terms of skill level because of that. The obvious cause is the lack of players in this game mode.

Unlike yolo arena where its easy to find games and the skill level difference between each team isn’t that far off. If your team has a bad player or two, chances are the enemy team has a few as well.

Usually, if you solo que into Team Arena, you’ll find yourself in a patchwork team against a team that is very likely more organized and thought out than your own. It also takes longer to get in because it prioritizes fully-made teams to soloists because that’s what the arena was made for.

almost no one plays gw2 pvp anymore because is getting repetitive and skills balance is awful. which is a huge shame

That’s stupid to say.
If you submit a Team Arena while in a party of 5 people you cant literally count to 3 before the invite pop up.

Are you kidding or what? Soloq is just as bad these days. Filled with ppl varying from top 10 to the low percentages in the same games, tons of 4v5s (even at higher ratings)…

All luck based.

When playing with a premade team during prime time it takes ~2 minutes to find a match for us. Maybe it is longer when you solo join teamq.

What an ignorant thing to say. I still get queue pops every night against good teams. I suppose if PvP is repetitive than all other MMO PvP and all MOBAs are repetitive, right?
