The winner moves up and the loser moves down- would give incentive to win AND keep the matches fresh. This getting the same servers over and over is beyond lame :/

I hate to say it but the game is wearing my patients thin great game mechanics but incredibly lame game modes

You must not have played in Season 2.

I did and it was ok but why not just open the whole thing up to 1 up 1 down. Have been stuck with the same match up for weeks and it’s lame :/

Server A in tier 1 loses. They go to tier 2 where they can easily win and will go back to tier 1 as the tier 2 team that replaced them likely lost. Same will happen in other tiers just as it did in Season 2.

All it does is create volatility for one server in each tier.

And don’t forget that one server will be stuck forever on the same tier (The one that end up being 2nd all matches).

Look at what happened this week when maguuma dropped a tier for a week and you can see why wu/ld is a horrible idea that people should stop posting.

All it does is guarantee the winning server to move up a tier where they get slaughtered and sent back down. Please think about it thoroughly.

But then they get new competition – I get it- the upper teir Zerg servers want to only have large numbers to fight- but all that would happen in the upper two tiers is that you would half to wait every other week to get the same server you just had. The rest of us- who would like to see other severs- would get that more regularly. I’m sure some in DB are glad to see t2 again? I don’t know – all I know is seeing the same people week in and week out is pretty boring :/

I used tier 1 as an example and you’re still not seeing what would happen. Whichever server that drops a tier will undoubtedly win by a large margin and be back up to their original tier the next week. The server that moved up a tier will most likely lose and be sent back down to their original tier.

This doesn’t really change anything.

Playing in bronze during season and now playing on CD- I have no doubt there are about 12 servers that could adequately challenge each other. The match ups might not always be close but parity in the guilds fighting each other does exist.

Anyways- it was just a thought- I have been playing wvw since launch’ish and it needs a good kick in the but. I know a lot of people log in just to see if the match ups changed and just log out when it hasn’t :/

And I know people that don’t even bother playing if they see that on Monday morning, their server is already 50k behind the lead with no chance of winning.

I rather balanced matchups over a bunch of unbalanced ones… Problem is: we don’t have neither
