I believe SOR is the only server to ever reach NA T1 and never have what it takes to pull out a last minute victory. Even with their overwhelming numbers, they seem to quit when their opponents put in extra hours and provide fights in time zones they are used to PvDoor in. What a shame.
This post is in poor taste and absolutely uncall for. SoR fought hard and really deserves better than some of these posts (including Kathy’s). Please be considerate or don’t post.

Imagine if BGs NA crew was as effective as their SEA crew.
“Imagine if the other servers had as poor coverage during NA hours as they do during SEA hours!”
Fixed that for you.
BGs NA really do a great job, no need to knock them.
I dont think our oceanic/SEA has a big advantage over JQ/SOR in terms on numbers these days. When you have ND + WM and MERC all playing at the same time, its our coordination that really shines and our ability to use float effectively.
Not to mention we have excellent commanders who really play for ppt
I believe posters are really not knocking BG NA. They are pointing out that our NA PPT is much lower than SEA. That is a reality. Of course our NA BG guilds <3 have their shiny moments (not knocking them at all) but I am sure overall NA BG is not on par to SoR’s NA, and there’s room for improvement in certain aspects of our NA. I believe there are compounding factors that could be resolved to improve, and I am sure there are heated discussions surrounding those which I am not going in that rabbit hole.
We were missing a couple of our melee but it wasn’t excuse worthy. From fighting them, they really aren’t doing anything much different than us… they just did it better. Simply put, we got out played.
Uhm… ? I’m amazed how easy some fights were then if we did exactly the same.
Anyway, thanks for the gvg TW. Had some fun stalking your eles
And people say TW is disrespectful.. RG gotta learn some class!
First of all, thanks TW for the GvG, it was fun and I think I got downed more than in any other GvG thanks to your rifle warrior o/.
Trolling aside, the setups were different, if not in terms of classes then it terms of specs for sure, a lot of focus on rezing from TW that we did not have. We certainly also didn’t have a rifle warrior ^^. Same went for the playstyle, both groups tried to achieve something different with their movement. The US moving in a circle meta while nuking with ranged and trying to lure enemy to go over stacked AoE certainly isn’t something we ever used or that would be regularly used in EU GvG’s.
I think TW would be pleasantly surprised if they transferred to EU at how much higher the competition level is there in GvG’s. They were not pushovers but we certainly had GvG’s in Europe where we lost rounds and more pressure was put on us (as a group, not me) by guilds that are nowhere near their US status/ranking. I am sure they would have a lot of good and close matches there, that is if they wouldn’t have delay due to the server locations. For me personally US servers are borderline unplayable at some hours due to warping lag. Using VPN is a must and even then the connection still suffers.
As a NA player, I was rooting for TW to at least win some rounds. although it didn’t happen, I thought TW fought valiantly (/respect). Be that as it may, the response above speaks bluntly to the reality: EU GvG is more competitive than NA. And that probably will translate to the WvW battlefield.
If RG stays, overtime, NA will get better as we try to adjust and learn from them, unfortunately, I don’t see us providing the level of competitiveness that RG is accustomed to in the immediate future. Especially under the new system, where JQ may be paired with some “Tier 2” servers with even less population, and the doors don’t fight back…much. Anyhow, here’s hoping we can keep you entertained and congrats on the fine match.
PS what is the title of the first song? It’s catchy.
It has been a rough night for BG, I suspect in the subsequent nights, the turn out will be lower from the non-Guildie and thus not provide the level of competition that SoR/JQ would come to expect.
Today, going into NA Prime, IRON did a wonderful job of accumulating the structures providing a strong foundation for their NA. I am sure both JQ/BG EU fought brilliantly and commendable for their efforts, but EU is definitely SoR timezone. Not using that as an excuse, because SoR NA in general played well and would have done well regardless and they showed their dominance over the both servers today. Kudos to you guys.
To BG, frustration aside, we will win with humility and lose with grace, that’s the BG style.
Cheers,
BG CitizenPS Hi HL folks. I am that Asura during the GvG.
PPS: TC, I miss you and the dolyak herd. Hope the new system, pair us up again!Sorry mate, even though I would like to take all the credit. Certainly in EB and JQ borders it was Indo and his followers who did all the flipping, nothing to do with IRON.
I should be the one to be sorry mate. I am from the west coast, so maybe EST is like EU to me
. Well played, Indo! See you guys on the field tonight.

Score update for EU zone time 12:00 PST.
This has been a fantastic matchup so far, as you can see JQ can still bring it with the PPT. There is always a healthy dose of competition in NA, Oceanic, and SEA. In particular NNK vs ATM vs MERC/WM (and friends) is epic.
Also had fun in NA time in JQ BL, where the revitalized JQ brings out its forces probably to hunt for RE, and the T1 capable guilds of DB (you know who you are) brings out the open-field fights. What I particular like about the fight last night in JQ BL, is that there were long stetches where JQ and BG ran two different zergs and the skill lag does not exist and all were able to use all skills available. This is quite a welcoming, at times when 3 servers hit bay, lag occurs but that is rarer now.
Keep up the fight everyone.
