Guild Wars 2

And make the NA Silver League be the rank 4 – 9 servers – TC, SoS, FA, Yaks, SBI, Mag.

Or at least lock us in a league of our own so we can contiune to play each other and not rely on RNG. This is the closest the any six servers have ever been I think. This is the way WvW was meant to be.

At the next level down. BP and DB would destroy the lower servers. It would be another 2 horse race. The leagues will always be screwy. Accept it.

As it is there where teams that bombed to drop into the lower tier servers so they could be the dominate group which totally made the battles not worth while. cough HoD and SF cough the bronze league would have been a much better battle league if those two groups weren’t in the league and we had NSP and IoJ.

TC would destroy everyone because they’re T1.5 in terms of coverage. gg?

Our tc coverage is in terms of t2 now. So, all bets are off.

Actually, if you look at ratings; 75% or more of our matches will be in this vein. Occasionally SoR will drop down or BP will pop-up since they under-perform/over-perform in their respective tiers.
It’s still possible that we could roll very low and T2 vs T4 or T3 vs T5; but those should be increasingly rare as the T2-T3 servers increasingly show balance. There is less than 240 pts separating SBI from TC. That increases the likelihood of the matchups in this group many times over.

I think we might have a good long stretch as long as no one screws it up (large OCX/SEA to Maguuma, large EU to SoS, etc) and unbalances things too much.

Correction, your coverage in people is still T1.5 or better. Your guild coverage is below average for T2.
TC racks up large daytime numbers for a server that has no advertised EU guilds and that remains your advantage.

They need a winner-take-all ranking system. That encourages double teams and should alleviate a lot of the coverage issues since you’d need a really large population disparity between servers for one server to easily beat two.

yeah winner take all with hidden score. only display the current top scorer server name from a match up; hiding the other two.

Well, over on the Eu servers, we Drakkars are having a blast against our longtime arch-rival Miller’s Sound right now. We aren’t quite up to the task yet, but we are getting there. At least, those guys actually fight us on the map rather than the forum.
