Guild Wars 2

I simply don’t agree with people who want to split the tournament system in a pre-made only teams and hotjoin team mode.

People first complain that sPvP is boring as being a zerg fest rather than trying to understand the game mechanism, how profession works, how things like trebuchet-cannon-ninja kills should be used.

Seen people in Kylo during sPvp games woh rush to the trebuchet not to offer support to their own team but rather trying to kill as many people as possible to raise their glory score, you would see a thief trying to kill with the trebuchet a single fella who’s running away from the mob…rather than help his teammate who’s fighting to the death on the clocktower…greatly outnumbered , as he’s trying desperatly to cap the point for the whoel freaking team.

Played with people in tournament who were more concerned about increasing their personal score with kills rather than help the team.

Basically people are asking for a reduced version of sPvP which would make the pug stomping easier for them as there are less people to gank them back….pretty sad.

If you’re asking for competition…then you should be ready to face organized teams, after all you did get the chance to learn the mechanisms of each map but if you keep mobbing point to point thinking you’re playing sPvp…then it’s yourkittenfault for sucking…it’s not the system fault.

A Pug team with skills can beat an organized team that’s it, if you don’t want to put the effort why should you be rewarded for your bad playing?

I agree, some of the pugs I’ve run with in tPvP have been my best teams, and you get to see some team make-ups you normally wouldn’t. I ran a meditation/vampire guardian spec with a team using an Engineer as bunker and Ele the highest damage on the team. We were smoking teams full of burst thieves.

On the flip side, I do wish some people wouldn’t try out a new class for the first time in tPvP, so I kind of wish there was a hotjoin 5v5 just so they wouldn’t cut their teeth in a match I’m trying to get a treasure box out of.

I want to fight premade teams when I’m doing tournaments with a premade team… fighting pugs is pretty boring and doesn’t help getting better at the game. Also I guess fighting premade groups with a pug can be really frustrating.
Thus I don’t think the current system is good.
